What are braces?

Braces are dental devices used to align teeth correctly so that patients get beautiful smiles, comfortable bites and clear speech. The dental speciality that covers braces is called orthodontics.

What types of braces are available?

Braces are structural or cosmetic. Structural braces are fitted for children while cosmetic braces are placed for adults and adolescents. Braces may be fixed or removable. Structural or traditional braces are made of stainless steel. Cosmetic braces are made of clear ceramic material or clear plastic. Some braces are self-ligating, that is, they use a slide mechanism rather than elastic bands to connect to the dental archwire. Lingual braces are metal braces placed on the inner surface of teeth. This type of brace is not visible and are preferred by patients requiring cosmetic braces.

How long do you have to wear braces for?

The length of orthodontic treatment depends on the needs and orthodontic problems of each individual patient. Treatments for adults may take a longer time. On average, patients need to wear braces for about 2 years and then they need to wear a retainer to maintain the corrected position of teeth. For some adults treatment may take about 3 years.

How are braces installed on teeth?

For fixed braces, the orthodontist dries the teeth and places glue or bonding cement on the braces. The braces are placed on teeth and a UV light is shone on them to cure the glue or cement. For removable braces, an impression of the teeth is taken and a technician makes the removable brace consisting of a plastic plate and wires. The brace is then fitted on teeth.

How do braces work on teeth?

Braces exert a steady pressure on teeth. The pressure is periodically adjusted as needed by the orthodontist. Eventually the pressure exerted by braces corrects the alignment of teeth.

Do braces hurt?

Braces are uncomfortable when first placed on teeth. Patients experience soreness and need to get used to the pressure exerted on the teeth by braces. Patients normally get used to braces within a month.

I am eternally grateful for the dentist and the excellent workAlex, US, 21 06 22

Experienced a veneer that off while traveling from the US to the UK. I called my hotel in Kensington and they recommended Kensington Dental Practice. I call and left a message that I need a veneer reattached on June 1. I soon received a message with a time and asking if I wanted to confirm (I had Wi-Fi on the plane). As soon as we landed and collected our luggage I had the driver drop me at the Dental office. Little did I know that it was the Queen' Jubilee and most professional offices were closed. I am eternally grateful for the dentist and the excellent work. My holiday to the UK was saved. By the way, I think the repaired veneer is better than new.

My gums are now pink & healthyMichèle, UK, 07 03 21

I started treatment at Behrens towards the end of 2020. Prior to this, life was awful and other dentists offered me no hope until I arrived here. They were able to offer me a payment plan which made it all possible. Along with their expertise and great kindness. First of all, as you walk in, the atmosphere is so calm, peaceful, refreshing.. beautiful piano playing in the background and the most welcoming receptionist's. Their professional approach is most reassuring. This goes for the entire team. They are thoughtful & kind. They would revolve around my time instead of the other way round. My timekeeping was atrocious yet still, they did their best to accommodate me. Truly they touched my heart. The work done is outstanding. The aggressive condition I had has gone. They cured me. My gums are now pink & healthy. I'm so grateful. They also educated me in ways specifically required to my needed level of oral hygiene. I also discovered the close connection with the digestive system and how big a part food plays.. as well as stress, anxiety, relaxation, recreation.. so it certainly opened my eyes in a holistic sense to understand a little more about my own body. Another personal point Is something I noticed about my gums. They were not strong at all and I was needing a fair amount of local anaesthetic to reduce the pain which meant more healing time was needed between each treatment. Initially, I wasn't aware of this and many appointments were excitedly booked in a succession for the problem to be resolved sooner. However, the need for healing in-between treatments became more evident as time went on and in hindsight, I now certainly would have allowed more time for my gums to recover. Altogether the treatment was very successful. I would highly recommend the Behrens for the overall care of their patients. They were very lovely and patient with my son and we missed seeing them. I'm now saving up to continue the improvements to my smile and looking forward to seeing them all again. 💙
