Straightening Smiles in Mobile with Trusted Braces Experts
At Bennett Orthodontics, we proudly serve patients of all ages in Mobile and nearby communities with expert orthodontic care. Whether you’re dealing with crowded teeth, bite issues, or misalignment, traditional braces remain one of the most reliable methods to help you achieve a straight, healthy smile. We offer a range of treatment options tailored to your lifestyle, including classic metal braces and discreet ceramic alternatives.
Personalized Braces Treatment with Your Mobile Orthodontist
Before your braces go on, our team will take digital X-rays, photos, and a detailed 3D model of your teeth and bite. Using this information, Dr. Bennett will design a customized treatment plan to guide your smile transformation. This plan includes the exact tooth movements needed for ideal alignment and determines how your braces will be applied.
Once the braces are placed, an archwire is threaded through the brackets to apply precise, controlled pressure. This activates a biological process called bone remodeling, which moves your teeth by breaking down and rebuilding the bone around their roots. On the pressure side, bone is resorbed, while new bone forms on the opposite side, gradually shifting your teeth into their proper positions.
Because this movement depends on continuous pressure, it’s essential to wear your retainer after treatment to maintain your results. Without it, your teeth may slowly begin drifting back toward their original positions.
What to Expect from Braces at Bennett Orthodontics
Today’s braces are more advanced, comfortable, and efficient than ever before. Our orthodontic solutions are effective for treating both mild and complex dental concerns. In many cases, traditional braces can deliver results faster than other treatments, helping you reach your smile goals sooner and more affordably.
Metal Braces
Still the most popular choice, metal braces are made from strong stainless steel and use brackets and wires to move teeth into place. They're a reliable, durable option that’s great for patients of all ages. Plus, you can personalize your braces by choosing colored bands or going for a more subtle look with clear ones.
Ceramic Braces
Ceramic braces function similarly to metal braces but feature brackets made of clear or tooth-colored material for a less noticeable appearance. They’re especially popular with adult and teen patients who want a more aesthetic option. These brackets are slightly more fragile and larger, so they’re usually reserved for upper front teeth rather than lower teeth or younger patients.
