Traditional Braces in Calgary

Traditional braces remain one of the most effective and reliable orthodontic treatments available. At London Square Dental, we use modern bracket systems that are smaller, more comfortable, and more efficient than ever before. Whether you need minor alignment correction or complex bite adjustment, our experienced team delivers beautiful, lasting results for patients of all ages.

Metal Braces

Our metal braces feature high-grade stainless steel brackets that are significantly smaller and sleeker than older designs. They deliver precise, predictable tooth movement for even the most complex orthodontic cases. Metal braces are the most cost-effective option and can be personalized with coloured elastic bands for a fun, customized look that teens love.

Ceramic Braces

For patients who prefer a more discreet appearance, ceramic braces use tooth-coloured or clear brackets that blend naturally with your teeth. They work with the same proven mechanics as metal braces but are far less noticeable. Ceramic braces are a popular choice among adult patients and image-conscious teens who want effective treatment without the look of traditional metal.

Your Treatment Journey

Treatment begins with a thorough orthodontic consultation including digital X-rays, photographs, and impressions. We create a customized treatment plan that maps out every stage of your tooth movement. After your braces are placed, you will visit us every four to six weeks for adjustments. Each visit takes about 20 to 30 minutes, and we monitor your progress closely to keep treatment on track.

Retention & Aftercare

Once your braces come off and you see your beautiful new smile, retainers keep your teeth in their new positions. We provide custom-fitted retainers and clear guidance on wear schedules. Consistent retainer use is essential in the months following treatment to ensure your results last a lifetime. We include follow-up visits to monitor your retention.
