The difference between ceramic and metal braces
Metal and ceramic braces are quite similar except for the material of the brackets. While metal braces are sturdy and resist staining, they are visible on the teeth's surface. Ceramic braces, on the other hand, have tooth-coloured brackets with a smoother finish, blending in with your teeth. However, you need to be cautious about food choices to prevent staining. Ceramic braces offer a balance between visible metal braces and newer, discreet options, making them a popular choice for many patients.

Frequently asked questions
Fixed braces can effectively treat a wide range of orthodontic issues, but suitability depends on individual patient needs. Your specialist orthodontist at My E20 will assess whether they are the right option for you, during your initial consultation at our London practice.
Initially, there may be some discomfort or pressure as your teeth adjust to the braces. However, this discomfort typically subsides within a few days, and most patients adapt quickly.
The duration of treatment varies depending on the severity of the dental issues being corrected. On average, treatment with fixed braces can last anywhere from 12 months to two years. Your specialist orthodontist will give you a clear timeline for the extent of your teeth straightening treatment, as part of your personalised plan.
Proper oral hygiene is crucial while wearing fixed braces. Brushing and flossing after meals, using interdental brushes, and seeing your dentist at My E20 for regular dental check-ups are essential to maintain oral health throughout treatment.
While you can eat most foods with fixed braces, it's recommended to avoid hard, sticky, or overly crunchy foods that may damage the braces or get stuck in them.
Fixed braces are suitable for patients of all ages, from children to adults. The decision to use fixed braces depends on factors such as dental health, orthodontic needs, and personal preferences, which your orthodontist will assess during your consultation at our London practice.
