Mount Laurel Metal Braces
Durable Treatment,
Long-Lasting Smile
Ellis Orthodontics offers metal braces as an affordable treatment option with the strength and precision to correct even the most severe bite problems. Our modern braces are also smaller and more efficient — so you get an overall convenient, comfortable, efficient smile journey.
Meet Your Modern Metal Braces
Braces are a fixed orthodontic appliance, meaning they’re bonded to your teeth and stay put throughout your treatment.
Dr. Ellis uses a system of brackets and wires to shift your teeth into their ideal positions. The result is a fabulous smile and a healthy, aligned bite.
Metal braces straighten teeth using metal brackets and archwires made from high-grade stainless steel.
You can add colorful elastics (rubber bands) that fit around the braces for a fully customizable, fun, and unique smile-transforming experience.
The Metal Advantage
At Ellis Orthodontics, you can reap the benefits of our new, modern braces system. From shorter treatment times to comfort like never before, enjoy a treatment that puts you first.
Let’s learn more about the benefits of these classic workhorses:
Affordable
Metal braces are a budget-friendly choice for getting your teeth in line. Braces are generally more affordable than clear aligners, ceramic braces, and other treatment options.
The overall cost of your treatment will depend on your orthodontic needs. Scheduling a free consultation with Dr. Ellis and our expert smile team can help you get a clearer picture of the treatment options available to you and the costs of each option.
Colorful
Earn extra style points with metal braces. Our elastics come in an array of colors.
From pink to violet to even clear, you can show off your personality, support your favorite school or team, or match your braces to a special occasion.
Durable
Modern metal braces are strong and last a long time.
They’re made of high-grade stainless steel, so they can handle the rigors of daily wear and support the sort of adjustments needed to treat even the most complex smile issues.
Secure
While clear aligners are discreet, they’re also removable — meaning you can possibly lose them.
Metal braces, on the other hand, are a fixed appliance. They stay in place over the course of your smile journey, so you won’t have to worry about losing or forgetting them.
Getting Started on Your Metal Braces Journey
Dr. Ellis is a board-certified orthodontist, so you can be sure that your smile journey will be comfortable from start to finish.
Here’s a roadmap of your metal braces treatment:
1. Schedule an Initial Consultation
Our initial consultation is free of charge. Call our Mount Laurel office or complete our appointment request form, and we’ll see you at Ellis Orthodontics.
2. Meet the Team Behind
Your Smile
You’ll meet Dr. Ellis and his expert smile team. We’ll perform an X-ray of your smile and create a digital impression using iTero Element. No messy and gooey impressions!
Dr. Ellis will then sit down with you to determine your eligibility for metal braces. You’ll also discuss your smile goals and other treatment options. Don’t be afraid to ask questions during your visit.
3. Proceed With Your Treatment
It’s braces time! Using a special adhesive, Dr. Ellis will affix the brackets to each of your teeth. The brackets will then be connected with an archwire.
The best part? You get to choose the color of your elastics. After 45 to 60 minutes, you’ll head home with a colorful smile.
4. See Our Smile Team Again
Every few weeks, you’ll drop by our clinic for a follow-up appointment with Dr. Ellis.
During these visits, we’ll assess your smile and adjust your braces.
As always, we’ll answer questions about your treatment’s progress.
5. Say Goodbye Braces & Hello Retainers
When you finish your braces treatment, your teeth have a natural tendency to shift back toward their old places.
The key to preventing this — and keeping your new smile looking amazing — is wearing a retainer.
We’ll create a custom retainer just for you once your braces come off. The appliance will stabilize your teeth in their new positions and ensure your results last a lifetime.
