Porcelain Wires
In recent years, with the development of orthodontic technology, wire types have also increased. Braces, which we call porcelain braces or transparent braces and are less visible than metal braces, are especially preferred by adults and those with aesthetic concerns. Transparent braces are a savior for those who do not want their work and social life to be affected by orthodontic treatment. Porcelain braces produced in ceramic and tooth color, unlike traditional braces, are made of a composite material similar to glass, so they do not make their presence felt during the treatment. Porcelain braces designed for adult use are also advantageous in that they do not stain. Since they are more sensitive than metal braces, their care should be done with care. Transparent braces, which are fully compatible with the mouth and teeth, are the new favorite of orthodontics. As the Istanbul Smile Center team, treatment begins within the necessary examinations.
