Teeth Clips is another name for ‘Dental Braces’. These are dental appliances that are used for treating a range of conditions, including crooked teeth, misaligned teeth, crowded teeth, malocclusion (bad bites), etc. These dental clips put mild pressure on the teeth and help them return to their normal position over the passage of time.

Traditionally, patients would feel embarrassed wearing braces as they were quite apparent. Additionally, they would fear pain and injuries inside the mouth. However, with advancements in medicine, newer braces that are less noticeable have become enormously in demand. Teeth clips or braces are categorized into several types, including:
Metal braces: Traditionally, braces were made of metal. These braces are still used. In the case of metal braces, the brackets are attached to the front of the teeth, and flexible wires hold the brackets together.
Ceramic braces: Ceramic braces are similar to metal braces, but they are generally made of ‘tooth-colored’ ceramic, unlike silver metal brackets or wires. They are less noticeable than metal braces.
Self-ligating braces: Self-ligating braces come with a built-in system for fastening the archwire to the brackets. They do not require the use of elastic ties or metal wires.
Lingual braces: Lingual braces are quite similar to conventional metal braces, but they are placed on the back side of your teeth or the lingual side of the teeth. This makes them nearly invisible.
Clear aligners: Clear aligners are the most advanced teeth clips or braces. They are transparent trays that are made out of special material. They work exactly like any other type of tooth clip or braces, but aren’t apparent like traditional braces.
The choice of the type of teeth clips to use for treatment is upon the orthodontists. They examine the patient’s overall oral health before suggesting which type of teeth clips would work best for them.
A person’s smile is an expression of what they’re feeling deep within and, therefore, shouldn’t be curbed.

When the teeth clip treatment is complete, the orthodontist will remove the brackets and the bonding agent. Then, they will clean and polish your teeth. Additionally, if they suspect gum issues, they will treat them as well. It is normal for patients to experience some sensitivity in the teeth for a couple of weeks after removal. However, it generally subsides in some time.
Retainers may be placed after treatment to prevent teeth from returning to their position. Patients are required to wear the retainers for some time, as directed by the orthodontist. Typically patients have to wear the retainers 24 hours a day for the initial two months after treatment. Then, they may have to wear them for another 6 to 12 months, but only at night. Taking care or retainers and maintaining complete oral hygiene is just as important as it is with braces.
The purpose of teeth clips is not only to help you get those perfect teeth and a beautiful smile but also to help you maintain good dental hygiene and avoid potential infections and diseases. Once the teeth clips are placed, it is important to follow a proper oral care routine, or your teeth can get stained, or you might develop gum diseases. We have listed some tips that can help you maintain proper oral hygiene after teeth clip placement:

Generally, teeth clips or braces aren’t considered a suitable treatment option if the patient has gum diseases that may be causing issues with the teeth. In such cases, the doctor might draft a different treatment plan.
There is no age limit to getting braces, and no best age either. Patients can get teeth clips whenever they want. However, some believe that it is best to get teeth clips between the ages of 9 to 14 years old.
Teeth clips can cause some pain or discomfort, but it generally subsides with time. Some patients may also feel that the teeth clips are rubbing or poking into the insides of the mouth. This pain generally vanishes within a week of placement. It is best to ask your dentist to give you tips on how you can manage this pain.
Usually, patients are required to wear fixed braces for 18 to 24 months. In more severe dental cases, the patient may have to keep the teeth clips on for up to 3 years. Your orthodontist will be able to tell you better for how long you will be required to wear the teeth clips or braces after assessing your condition.
Orthodontists generally suggest avoiding chewy foods such as bagels and gums, crunchy foods such as chips, popcorn, and ice, sticky foods including candies, gums, and hard foods like nuts, etc., after teeth clips placement. These foods can cause the clips or braces to break.
It is advisable to see an orthodontist every six to eight weeks after teeth clip or braces placement. This will help you keep a check on the progress of the treatment and your overall oral health.
Taking care of braces is important, or they may break. If you break your braces repeatedly, your treatment will last longer. Additionally, you must maintain good oral hygiene, as poor oral health can result in other complications that may delay the results.
Teeth clips of different types – metallic, ceramic, or invisible are generally considered the most trusted method of treating various dental conditions. However, in some cases, surgeries such as teeth straightening surgery, etc., are considered effective alternatives for teeth clips.
