A Powerful Choice
for Your Smile

Metal braces remain a popular and effective option for aligning teeth and correcting bite issues. Today's metal braces are more comfortable and efficient than ever, using high-quality stainless steel brackets and wires to gently guide teeth into place.

They're built to withstand the daily demands of busy lives, especially for active teens and kids. Unlike braces of the past, modern metal braces are smaller, sleeker, and designed for greater comfort.

Proven Durability

Metal braces are built to last, using high-quality stainless steel that matches daily life's rigors. They're a great choice for kids and teens who lead active lifestyles and need braces that can keep up.

With metal braces, you won't have to worry about frequent repairs, making your treatment smoother and more reliable from start to finish.

Fewer Office Visits

Thanks to their efficient design, modern metal braces require fewer adjustments, which means less time spent in the orthodontist's chair. The built-in technology of our brackets minimizes the need for frequent visits, simplifying your treatment and freeing up more of your schedule.

Improved Comfort

Today's metal braces are designed with comfort in mind. The smaller, rounded brackets help reduce irritation, giving you a more pleasant treatment experience. Dr. Pickett has chosen braces that fit well and feel comfortable so you can focus on your daily life.

Affordable Treatment Option

Metal braces offer an effective solution that won't break the bank. Compared to other treatments like clear aligners or ceramic braces, metal braces are more affordable, making them a budget-friendly choice.

Effective for All Smiles

Metal braces are highly effective in treating a wide range of orthodontic issues, from mild misalignments to more complex cases. After each adjustment, you'll feel them gently guiding your teeth into place, gradually shaping your smile into one you'll be proud to show off.

Worry-Free Placement

While removable options like clear aligners offer flexibility, they require extra care to keep track of them. Metal braces are fixed in place, so you'll never have to worry about losing them. They stay with you through every step of your treatment.
