Braces in Port St. Lucie are an excellent choice for correcting complex tooth issues. Since they can sometimes work faster at aligning teeth and closing gaps than other treatments might, overall treatment time may be slightly reduced.

Braces don’t require some of the more complex technology or expensive equipment that newer treatments can, meaning Port St. Lucie braces are a cost-effective orthodontic option. Traditional metal braces are one of the most efficient orthodontic tools we have.

They’re made out of metal brackets that are affixed to the teeth, then connected by wires and tiny rubber bands or elastics. These brackets, wires, and bands work together to apply gentle pressure that will gradually move the teeth into the desired positions as long as you have regular adjustments with our doctors.

In addition to metal braces, we also offer clear braces, which function similarly but use translucent ceramic brackets. Clear braces are a fantastic option for those who prefer a more discreet appearance during treatment. Both types of braces provide effective results and can address a wide range of orthodontic issues.

Clear aligners are incredibly popular with both patients and orthodontists in Port St. Lucie and are the top alternative to traditional braces. Instead of brackets and bands, the clear aligner system uses a series of clear, removable trays to gradually straighten your teeth.

Clear aligners are made of comfortable plastic material and customized to fit snugly over your teeth. To keep your teeth moving in the desired direction, you’ll need to switch your aligners out for the next one in the series every one to two weeks, as directed by our doctors.

The clear aligner system can only work if the recommended guidelines are followed exactly! Aligners should be worn 20 – 22 hours per day throughout the treatment. If patients neglect to wear the aligners as directed, it can impede the results and also add time to the orthodontic process.

Clear aligners are most efficient when correcting many of the most common orthodontic issues. For some complex cases, clear aligners may not be a suitable option. A free consultation with our doctors at Desman Orthodontics in Port St. Lucie will allow us to determine your eligibility for clear aligners.

Dr. Desman has lots of experience providing customized treatment plans for each individual patient.
