Frequently Asked Questions

What materials are traditional brackets made of?

Traditional brackets are usually made of stainless steel, although some include nickel-titanium alloys for strength and flexibility.

How are brackets adjusted and how often?

They are adjusted by applying pressure using wires and bands. Checkups are usually performed every 4 to 6 weeks to monitor progress.

Can any food be eaten with braces?

It is advisable to avoid hard, sticky or very crunchy foods, as they may damage the brackets. Opting for softer foods makes treatment care easier.

How long does conventional orthodontic treatment last?

The duration depends on each case. Simple treatments can last 3-4 months, while more complex ones can last up to 2 or 3 years. It is essential to respect the retention period indicated by the orthodontist.

What special care do brackets require?

Oral hygiene is key. Flossing, interdental brushes and an oral irrigator are recommended to thoroughly clean the teeth and prevent debris build-up around the brackets.
