Metal Braces
A timeless and highly effective orthodontic treatment
Personalized treatment plan by Dr. Angelakis.
Braces are the classic and consistently effective form of orthodontic treatment. This is a scientifically proven method, based on precise control of tooth movement and individualized planning of each stage, aiming at alignment, functional balance, and long-term stability of the results.
What braces are
Braces are fixed orthodontic appliances (brackets and wires) that are attached to the teeth and allow continuous, controlled movement into the desired position, according to a personalized treatment plan.
Key characteristics
- Fixed (non-removable):
Work continuously throughout the day
Allow high precision in complex tooth movements
Suitable for a wide range of cases
Features of treatment with braces
Treatment with braces is based on precise and individualized planning, ensuring that every tooth movement is controlled and predictable.
- Scientifically proven and time-tested orthodontic method
Individualized planning of each treatment stage
Continuous and controlled tooth movement
Ability to treat both simple and more complex cases
When braces are indicated
Braces can be used in a wide range of orthodontic cases:
- Crowding
Spacing between teeth
Malocclusions (bite problems)
Relapse after previous orthodontic treatment
Moderate to complex cases
Advantages of braces
High precision
They allow accurate control of tooth movement even in complex cases.
Continuous action
They work 24/7 without needing to be removed by the patient.
Suitable for complex corrections
They can treat a wide range of orthodontic irregularities.
Personalized treatment
Each plan is designed according to the patient’s specific needs.
Aesthetic options in braces
Aesthetics are an important and evolving aspect of orthodontics. Today, different levels of discretion are available depending on patient preference and lifestyle.
The overall appearance is influenced both by the type of appliance and the ligatures used during treatment.
Ligatures (elastic ties) are placed on the brackets and help apply controlled forces to the teeth.
They are available in:
- Clear options
- Colored options
Colored ligatures are often preferred by children and teenagers.
Hybrid and short orthodontic treatments
In selected cases, treatment can combine different techniques for improved precision.
Hybrid treatments
Combination of braces with other orthodontic techniques when better control is needed at specific stages.
Short treatments
In specific indications, treatment time can be significantly reduced without compromising functional results.
All choices are based on scientific evidence rather than standardized solutions.
Treatment duration with braces
Duration varies from patient to patient and depends on:
- Severity of the problem
Amount of tooth movement required
Gum and bone health
Patient cooperation and appointment consistency
All of the above parameters are accounted for the treatments.
Who braces are for
Braces are suitable for:
- Patients with crowding or spacing
Bite irregularities
Moderate to complex orthodontic cases
Patients requiring high precision tooth movement
Relapse cases after previous orthodontic treatment
Treatment cost
The cost of braces treatment depends on case complexity, treatment duration, and the individualized plan.
The price ranges from €1,650 to €2,900.
Installment payment options are available with flexible plans to suit patient needs.
Initial consultation
The process starts with a full clinical and digital evaluation to determine:
- Whether braces are the right option for you
How they will be applied in your specific case
Information always comes before decision-making.
