It's amazing how many myths Canton orthodontists hear about metal braces, especially since they are such a widely used and popular dental device. If you've thought about visiting Dr. Stuart Loos, DDS for braces, but thought metal braces weren't for you, make sure your decision isn't being influenced by one of these five very common myths regarding metal braces.
Myth 1: Braces Can Get Stuck Together
Today's braces are smaller, sleeker, lighter and nearly impossible to get stuck together.
Myth 2: Braces Can Interfere with Metal Detectors and Radio Waves
Between the type of metal and the small amount of metal included, today's braces pose no risk of interfering with metal detectors, radio waves and other electronic gadgets.
Myth 3: Wearing Braces Will Prevent Me From Playing Sports or Musical Instruments
While playing sports and instruments with braces may come as a bit of an adjustment, metal braces don't need to prevent you from playing at all. Simply wear protective gear when playing sports and exercise proper precaution to avoid any injury.
Myth 4: Braces Straighten Your Teeth Permanently
While metal braces are highly effective at straightening teeth, the results don't always last forever. For this reason, your Canton orthodontist will likely give you a retainer to help hold your teeth in position once your braces have been removed.
Myth 5: Braces Are Just for Kids
While many teenagers wear braces, they certainly aren't the only ones wearing them. Any individual of any age who is embarrassed or inconvenienced by their crooked teeth can be a good candidate for braces. You don't stop caring about a beautiful, straight smile once you hit 20. Metal braces from Canton orthodontist Dr. Loos are a great solution no matter how old you are.
