Precise and efficient

Fixed braces

Fixed braces work very efficiently and with great accuracy. We rely on modern materials that are particularly hygienic and gentle.

The specialist orthodontist bonds brackets to the teeth. The movement is achieved with wires that guide the teeth into the desired position. Here too we use state-of-the-art materials: self-ligating brackets, which are particularly hygienic, and thermoelastic wires that transfer the required force to the teeth gently but continuously.

Oral hygiene with fixed braces

Oral hygiene should be very good when wearing fixed braces so that the teeth do not discolour. We actively support and motivate our patients in this, also involving their dentists. At every check-up we look together at how well the cleaning is going.

Would you prefer your fixed braces not to be visible?

Then we are happy to show you our discreet alternatives:

  • Ceramic brackets in tooth colour, far less noticeable than metal brackets.
  • WIN® lingual braces: fixed braces on the inside of the teeth.
  • Angel Aligner: clear, removable aligners as invisible braces.

Frequently asked questions

Good to know

Do fixed braces hurt?

After fitting and after adjustments there may be a feeling of tension that subsides after a few days. Thanks to thermoelastic wires the forces are gentle and even.

How long do you wear fixed braces?

Usually between one and a half and two and a half years, depending on the misalignment. Regular check-ups every four to eight weeks keep things moving.

Are there fixed braces you can't see?

Yes: tooth-coloured ceramic brackets make the braces less noticeable, and with WIN® lingual braces on the inside of the teeth they are practically invisible.
