Braces in Edmond, OK

Braces are one of the most reliable ways to correct crowding, spacing, bite problems, and complex tooth movement. At Nanda Orthodontics in Edmond, our doctors offer several braces options, including metal braces, clear braces, Damon braces, and lingual braces. We will explain each option clearly, review your treatment goals, and help you choose the approach that fits your smile, timeline, and budget.

Why Braces?

Braces can do more than just give you a beautiful smile. By straightening your teeth and aligning your jaw, braces can help you avoid potential oral health problems like tooth decay and gum disease. Left untreated, crooked teeth can be difficult to clean and may even lead to tooth loss. Additionally, misaligned teeth and jaws can cause issues with chewing, speech, and tooth wear.

At Nanda Orthodontics, we offer traditional braces as a reliable option for straightening teeth and improving overall oral health.

Contact us today to schedule a complimentary consultation with Dr. Nanda, our expert orthodontist in Edmond, and discover your options for achieving a straight, healthy smile.

Orthodontics Combined with Corrective Jaw Surgery

People who can benefit from orthognathic surgery include those with jaws that are positioned incorrectly. Orthognathic surgery is also the treatment of choice in patients who have not had the benefit of dentofacial orthopedics for growth guidance or in cases where the deformity is so severe that orthodontics alone is not enough to correct it. Orthognathic surgery can eliminate severe aesthetic and functional deformities and be a life-changing event for a patient.

How long will I need to wear braces?

The length of time you’ll need to wear braces depends on several factors, including the severity of your orthodontic issues, the type of braces you choose, and your compliance with wearing them as directed. In general, most people wear braces for 1-3 years.
