Braces are devices used to straighten, align and also  position teeth with regard to one’s bite while aiming at improving ones dental health.

Better dental health is frequently the result of wearing a brace to treat malocclusion and lessen the spacing between teeth and their crookedness. Because the gums and realigned teeth are easier to maintain, there is a lower chance of developing issues like tooth decay, gingivitis, or even tooth loss

There are 5 types of Braces namely;

1. Metal Braces:

    The most popular type of braces worldwide are metal or traditional braces, which have been in use for more than a century. Braces used to be highly conspicuous and big. Fortunately, braces today are very different from those from 100 years ago. Technology and innovation advancements have made braces:

• Smaller
• Faster
• Greater comfort, greater efficiency
   They function by affixing the braces to the teeth and tying a wire between them. The elastic ties, which are available in a variety of colors, are used to secure the wire to the braces.
  
  2. Ceramic Braces:
  
  Ceramic braces are transparent, tooth-colored appliances. They function in a similar manner to metal braces but are more subtle and less visible.
  
  3. Self – Ligating Brace
  
  Self-ligating braces differ from metal or ceramic braces in that they do not require elastic rubber ties to hold the wire in place, instead using doors or clips.
  
  4. Lingual Braces
  
  Lingual braces behind the teeth are the most specialized and least common orthodontic system on the market.
  
  5. Invisalign And Clear Braces
  With Invisalign, teeth can be straightened without the use of wires or bracket attachments. It does its magic on transparent platters.
  With the use of a series of personalized aligners built just for you, Invisalign straightens teeth.
  These aligner trays are made of nearly undetectable, smooth, and soft plastic, and they fit exactly over your teeth. Your teeth gradually realign when you wear your aligners using the precise movements that your orthodontist prescribes for you.

Braces cost between Ksh. 40,000 – Ksh. 60,000 per jaw.
