orthodontic braces
Orthodontic braces are dental devices used to correct misalignment of teeth and malocclusions such as overbites and underbites. They apply continuous pressure to gradually move teeth into the desired position, improving dental health and aesthetics. Braces typically consist of brackets (attached to each tooth), arch wires (that connect the brackets), and elastic bands (that apply pressure in specific directions). They can be made from materials like metal, ceramic, or clear, aesthetic polymers.
