Braces in Little Elm & Prosper, TX

Why Braces? Braces are used for a variety of reasons, and braces now come in more varieties and options than ever before! Braces are one of the most effective ways to straighten your teeth and improve jaw symmetry. A straighter smile can also improve your speech and access for oral hygiene.

The need for braces is assessed using non-invasive diagnostic tests, such as computer generated images, panoramic X-rays, and bite impressions. At Bracify Orthodontics, we offer a variety of braces options, such as traditional metal, innovative clear braces, or Invisalign clear aligners. We often use metal braces on children, allowing them to choose bright, fun colored bands! The clear braces and Invisalign clear aligners offer more discreet options for our adult orthodontic patients.

Braces work by putting constant, gentle pressure on your teeth in the desired direction. This controlled force slowly moves your teeth, resulting in straighter alignment. The duration of time for braces varies by individual and depends on the severity of the correction needed and mouth and facial growth.

Will I be limited on what I can eat?
