Why Choose Nautical Dental & Braces?
At Nautical Dental & Braces, we pride ourselves on our commitment to quality and customer service. We want you to have a great experience with us, from start to finish.
We recommend braces for more than just straightening teeth for aesthetic reasons. Straightening your teeth makes your smile look great and also makes it healthier. Crooked teeth can mean more spaces among your teeth that are difficult to cover when brushing and where plaque and bacteria can build up. This buildup can lead to a higher risk of decay, gum disease, and eventually tooth loss and other health issues.
Traditional Braces and Clear Aligners at Nautical Dental
Traditional braces are typically made of stainless steel. We attach them to the teeth with brackets and use a rubber band and wire system to adjust them. You will come into the office occasionally so Dr. Cornelius can check the progress on your tooth movement and adjust the braces as necessary.
Traditional braces may stand out more on the teeth than some alternatives, and they may not be as comfortable, but they are the most effective option in some cases. They are sometimes the recommended option for bite alignment difficulties and severe malocclusions. A “tried and true” solution, they have been used for over a century, although the modern versions are much smaller and more comfortable.
We understand why not everyone is comfortable with traditional metal braces. That’s why we offer clear aligners in San Antonio, Texas, as well. Clear aligners are an excellent option for people who want to straighten their teeth but don’t want the look or feel of metal braces. Clear aligners are made of a clear, flexible plastic virtually invisible when worn. They are also removable, so you can take them out for eating, drinking, and when you brush your teeth. And because they’re removable, there are no dietary restrictions like there might be with traditional braces. You can eat all the hard, sticky foods you like without worry.
We use the latest clear aligner technology to provide our patients with the best possible results. The BPA-free plastic is soft and comfortable to wear.
And you don’t need to go to appointments to adjust them as you do with traditional braces. You just come into the office for your next aligner set, usually about every two weeks. Each aligner set is slightly different, and when worn over your teeth, its shape stimulates them to move gently in the intended direction.
If you’re unsure which type of braces is right for you, our team can help. We offer a free consultation to discuss your options and help you make the best decision for your smile.
