Dr. Harman and the team at Heidi Harman Orthodontics have the knowledge and experience to advise their patients that live in or near Merriam KS about orthodontic treatment options like braces. If the question is “Do I need braces?”, the answer may be easy to discern.

What are braces?

Braces are a system comprised of metal brackets, a bonding substance, and an archwire that connects the brackets together. A thorough examination by Dr. Harman will help determine what needs to be fixed and identify a goal position for the teeth in question. Metal brackets are adhered to the front surfaces of the teeth with a special dental adhesive. These brackets serve as an anchor for the archwire, which is the source of pressure that is used to move your teeth. The pressure exerted pushes the teeth into the desired position throughout the course of treatment.

What are the benefits of braces?

The long-term goal of braces is a set of nicely ordered teeth. Correctly positioned teeth make cleaning, brushing, and flossing easier and more effective. A set of properly aligned teeth work more efficiently, are nicer to smile with, and contribute to the overall health and well-being of the patient.
