What is Metal Braces?
Who isn’t familiar with metal braces? Until not too long ago, they were the only method available to correct any type of malocclusion in children, teenagers, and adults alike.
In a world where innovation in invisible orthodontics is advancing rapidly, metal braces have naturally been overshadowed by more discreet, faster, and modern options. However, before dismissing them entirely, it’s worth discussing them, as they remain a viable option for many patients who prefer not to opt for a more expensive orthodontic system.
Metal braces are made from a stainless steel and nickel alloy, giving them great strength and durability. They can correct a wide range of alignment and occlusion issues, from mild cases to the most complex ones. Additionally, they are the most affordable orthodontic treatment option without compromising effectiveness. The cost of treatment with metal braces starts at €1,995, depending on the complexity of the case and the duration of the treatment.
