As we list down the differences between removable and fixed braces, read on to understand the working and your requirements.
Removable Braces
Removable braces are used to correct minor tooth alignment issues. They are often used to solve problems affecting front teeth in a short period of time. A particularly popular choice of patients suffering from dental problems is removable braces. Other options are Invisalign and the Inman Aligner. Invisalign are clear aligners made of plastic that help in the movement of teeth into predestined spots. As a very convenient option, the aligners get camouflaged once aligned and can be easily removed whenever you eat, drink, brush or floss. These are easy and convenient while being appealing in terms of results.
A cosmetically oriented brace, the Inman Aligner works with the advantage of producing results faster, within a few weeks or months. A shortcoming of this aligner is that it only works on front teeth which show up when you smile or talk. But with its speedy treatment as an outcome, it’s slightly higher price is worthy. If you have only a few teeth misplaced without major problems in your bite, the Inman Aligner is an easy and one of the best options for you.
Fixed Braces
If you suffer from more complicated dental issues, your dentist might suggest you to get fixed braces. This could be a little disheartening but its long term promising is worth the treatment. Fixed braces are recommended for more precise teeth placements. In this process, brackets are fixed onto teeth which enable a well planned, accurate movement and placement of teeth in the position they should be in. With fixed braces, you need to really watch what food you eat. You should avoid hard food like nuts, hard crusts, etc. Also avoid eating chewy candies or other chewy food as it sticks to your mouth and braces. This could detach your brackets. Brushing should carefully be done. It is recommended to brush thrice a day, carefully reaching out to restricted spaces in the mouth.
But an advantage of fixed braces is that they continuously work to rectify your teeth and thus they need to be worn for a relatively shorter period of time. Opting for this treatment will give you the optimum result.
Both, removable and fixed braces have pros and cons. What will suit you best depends on your requirements and problems. Thus, the best way to find out whether you need fixed braces or removable ones is to visit your dental care clinic and take recommendations from your dentist.
