No matter whether you choose invisible braces or metal braces, you must choose the method that suits you based on the condition of your teeth deformity and the condition of your jaw. Generally speaking, metal braces cause greater damage to the mouth and have poor stability, requiring patients to frequently visit the doctor. Invisible braces are transparent and beautiful, easy to wear and remove, convenient to clean, and comfortable, but the price is a bit expensive, which can be chosen by yourself.
Metal braces can refer to traditional metal bracket correction and self-locking metal bracket correction. Although both are bonded with orthodontic devices on the surface of the teeth, self-locking metal bracket correction is more popular than traditional metal bracket correction because the former has undergone a great degree of innovation based on the latter. However, the price of self-locking brackets is more expensive than traditional brackets. Traditional brackets are more likely to cause damage to the mouth, generate greater friction, and are not as advantageous as self-locking brackets in terms of aesthetics and correction period. Moreover, the stability of traditional bracket correction is not good enough, and as long as there is a problem, the corrector needs to frequently visit the doctor. The stability and durability of self-locking brackets are much better, and there is no need for frequent visits.
Invisible braces, on the other hand, represent a comprehensive upgrade in orthodontic technology. They use transparent materials in oral medicine, have a transparent and beautiful appearance, do not require bonding brackets on the surface of the teeth, and allow the wearer to remove and wear them freely, making it convenient for eating and cleaning. They have great advantages in terms of appearance, comfort, and correction period. The scope of application of invisible braces is also very wide, and they are suitable for correcting general dental deformities. However, the cost of invisible braces is quite expensive, and wearing them requires a high degree of self-discipline from the wearer, otherwise it is difficult to achieve the desired correction effect. Ultimately, the choice of correction method should be determined based on the condition, degree, and jaw condition of the teeth deformity to achieve the desired correction effect.
