Installation of braces is a dental service that helps you get a beautiful and straight smile. To do this, the dentist fixes special equipment, which gradually pulls the teeth into the correct position.
The duration of orthodontic treatment for children is about 12 months, for adults it is longer: around 1.5 -2 years. The result is a beautiful smile that adds confidence.
If you don’t have much time to read long articles, and you want to find out where you can install a braces system in Tver, then one of the best offers is the RedWhite clinic. Our motto: correcting your bite inexpensively and in a short time.
Types of bracket systems
The designs of braces may differ not only in material, but also in their shape, method of fastening, and wearing conditions.
Orthodontic devices can be permanent or removable (worn no more than 12 hours a day). The permanent ones include:
- metal braces are the most common budget option. They are decorative (curly, gold) and self-regulating.
- Ceramic braces are the most acceptable option in terms of quality and aesthetics.
- sapphire braces - similar in appearance and other characteristics to ceramic ones
- mouth guards for teeth straightening – suitable for those with minor teeth alignment anomalies. Almost invisible and easy to clean. They are considered permanent, although they can be removed at home, since they must be worn up to 22 hours a day for optimal effect on the teeth.
- Lingual braces are installed along the back line of the teeth, making them virtually invisible. This is an expensive and most difficult option to adapt, since such an arrangement of ligatures interferes with normal chewing of food and can cause pain in the tongue and gums in the first month of wearing.
Removable ones include:
- mouthguards (cover the entire jaw surface, are something like a cover for teeth, made according to the same principle as for professional sports);
- Trainers are small structures designed to eliminate the habit of breathing through the mouth and fixing the position of the tongue;
- plates used to change the position of an individual row of teeth. They can be called removable conditionally, since they should be worn almost all the time, taking them off while sleeping and performing hygiene procedures.
Indications for installing braces
Correction of the bite is possible from the age of 12 after the complete formation of the dentition. There is no upper age limit for the procedure. Indications for the installation of orthodontic equipment are:
- loose placement of teeth (gaps between incisors, canines and premolars, diastema between the upper incisors);
- crowding of the dentition. Teeth receive uneven chewing load, quickly wear out and are subject to caries;
- bite pathologies. Result in improper closure and disruption of chewing function;
- pathologies in which the teeth turn around their axis, tilt, sink or protrude from the row;
- periodontitis, which causes teeth to move out or become loose.
The installation of braces is also indicated for pain and certain types of pathology of the temporomandibular joint, which, in addition to changes in bite, can cause frequent headaches, bruxism, which is accompanied by hypertonicity of the masticatory muscles and night grinding of teeth.
Stages of installing braces
Correcting a bite is a time-consuming procedure.
It is carried out in several stages, for which you will have to visit the clinic more than once. 1. Diagnosis is the first step, which is carried out by the orthodontist. 2. Sanitation of the cavity, cleaning of stone and plaque. 3. Panoramic x-ray of the jaw, after which the doctor makes the necessary calculations and selects a method to eliminate the defect. 4. Preparation and installation of the structure to correct the bite. The procedure for installing braces is painless, but wearing them can cause discomfort, which is normal. Note! The first results after installing braces will be visible within a few months, but this does not mean that you need to stop wearing them. It is important to fully follow the plan outlined by the orthodontist.
First appointment with the orthodontist
At the initial appointment, the doctor performs a thorough examination of the oral cavity. Based on the results of the examination, a decision is made on the need to install braces.
Braces are special devices for correcting abnormalities in the teeth and jaw. In parallel with the bite, the orthodontist gives recommendations for the treatment of gums and monitors the condition of them, tooth enamel, and takes preventive measures to prevent the formation of caries.
Observation by an orthodontist, as a rule, does not involve treatment with surgery. Correcting a malocclusion with braces is a lengthy process. But the results will last a lifetime.

What to do after installing braces
The effect of braces treatment depends on how carefully the patient follows the doctor’s recommendations.
Basic recommendations:
- brush your teeth after every snack,
- use a V-shaped and mono-beam orthodontic brush to clean the equipment;
- thoroughly clean all tooth surfaces and interdental spaces;
- use brushes, dental floss, irrigator and antibacterial rinses;
- refrain from foods with a viscous consistency, as well as excessively hot and cold drinks.
After installing the brace system, you must regularly visit the orthodontist, who can assess the progress, change the arches and perform activation.
After removing braces, cleaning is recommended to thoroughly polish the surface of the teeth previously covered by the equipment.
Next comes the retention period of treatment. During which time it is recommended to wear mouth guards and/or retainers. The purpose of this stage is to keep teeth in the correct position, prevent relapses, as well as unwanted tooth movement.
Correction of teeth bite
Bite alignment with braces is one of the most common procedures that involves the use of the most modern developments and high-tech techniques. For this purpose, you can use both fixed equipment and mobile mouthguards, and the appropriateness of using one or another method and the duration of its effect is determined by the doctor.
The most common method of orthodontic treatment is the use of braces - fixed plates, the wearing of which allows you to gradually and painlessly correct crooked areas of the teeth. Moreover, modern equipment is very different from those braces that were used 10 years ago, and are aesthetically attractive products, some of which are even perceived as decoration.
Braces used to straighten teeth can be classified as follows:
- by type of material – ceramic, metal, sapphire;
- according to the method of correcting the bite - simple and self-ligating;
- by type of installation - invisible (lingual), which are installed on the inside of the surface of the teeth, and vestibular (visible), which are installed on the outside.
An example of complex treatment by clinic specialists:
- orthodontist
- orthopedist
- therapist
- surgeon
- periodontist
How to install braces
Installation of braces is carried out directly or indirectly. In the first case, the doctor:
- Examines panoramic photographs of the dentition or orthopantomogram, analyzes models, and calculates models.
- Using a special tool, installs the bracket system, sequentially, on each tooth.
- Fixes the elements of the bracket system on the enamel to ensure high-quality adhesion of the metal and the surface of the teeth.
- Removes excess adhesive material.
- Evaluates the degree of fixation.
- Fixes the arc.
The direct method is attractive because it makes it possible to adjust the original installation plan. This procedure takes on average 1.5-2 hours.
The main actions of the orthodontist when using the indirect method:i
- Taking impressions from the top and bottom
- Making plaster models.
- Calculation of models.
- Selection of equipment and treatment planning.
- Coordination and ordering of a teeth straightening system.
- Making mouth guards or templates.
- If treatment using mouth guards is planned, the doctor conducts computer modeling and makes mouth guards.
- Fitting the aligners in the patient's mouth.
- Fixation of equipment.
The indirect method requires lengthy preparation. At the same time, the orthodontic equipment itself is installed faster.

Preparing to install braces
To correct the bite and install orthodontic systems, the oral cavity must be healthy. To do this, the doctor performs sanitation:
- treats caries and its complications,
- tidies up gums
- replaces old and unreliable fillings,
- removes plaque and tartar.
Before installing the equipment, the orthodontist sits the patient in a chair, installs a retractor, and then grinds and prepares the surface of the teeth. Next, they are coated with a compound that improves the adhesion of braces to the enamel.
Installation
The installation of metal braces is carried out to eliminate any dental disorders: malocclusion, violation of the position of teeth and dentition, crowding, gaps between teeth. The process of fixing the bracket system to the teeth is simple, absolutely painless and lasts about an hour. The design consists of braces (locks), a power arch and ligatures that attach the arch to the locks.
Installation includes the following steps:
- Preparation of the oral cavity – treatment of dental diseases, professional hygiene;
- Treatment of the surface of the teeth with a special gel;
- Application of adhesive (glue);
- Fixing a bracket on each tooth;
- Illumination of the glue with an ultraviolet lamp for reliable attachment of products;
- Application of an orthodontic arch;
- Fixation of the arch with the help of ligatures (wires, rubber bands) or without ligatures, depending on the design;
- If necessary, additional elements can be installed - rings, hooks, elastic bands;
- Recommendations and advice to the patient.
