Birbe Clinic, specialists in conventional braces in Barcelona
Orthodontics is the dental speciality indicated to correct the position of a patient’s teeth. Through braces, attached to the teeth, misaligned teeth can be corrected, and a perfect smile can be achieved. Are you interested in our conventional braces treatment in Barcelona? At Birbe Clinic, we are specialists in this area of dentistry!
Braces are the most visible part of orthodontic treatment, they are the metal pieces that are attached to the teeth. They are tools that are designed for each type of tooth according to the movement we want to carry out on it. They are held in place by a metal arch that is attached by ligatures. But how are they attached to the tooth? With adhesives and dental resin, which are transparent composites. To guarantee good adhesion, it is essential to remove bacterial plaque before cementing.
Thanks to this arch and the braces, the information of the desired dental movement is transmitted to each tooth so that they end up in the ideal position, in a light, progressive way, with hardly any discomfort, but in a constant manner.
Difference between conventional braces and self-ligating braces
There are different types of braces that are differentiated by the material used or by how they are attached to the metal arch. The two types that currently exist are conventional braces and self-ligating braces.
The first type requires an additional element to properly secure the arch wire, known as a ligature. There are different materials that can be used, one is the metal wire, and the other is the elastomeric modules (the rubber bands).
The second type is self-ligating braces. They do not need the additional element to hold the arch wire.
The orthodontist will indicate the most suitable for each treatment. He or she will explain the advantages and disadvantages of each one depending on your orthodontic treatment, and you can be part of the decision if you wish.
Metal braces price, benefits, and characteristics
Although we have described them as conventional orthodontics, they have evolved over the last few decades, offering the best option for the patient. They have more subtle designs, which make treatment much more comfortable. They are also smaller.
These characteristics have made them a more attractive option when it comes to choosing what type of orthodontics we want to wear.
In addition, it is important to add that there are different reasons why we recommend metal braces, one of the most important of which is their affordable price, as well as their effectiveness and 100% correction of the dentition. Surgical orthodontics associated with orthognathic surgery often has to be performed with this type of brace.

How long does orthodontic treatment with metal braces last??
Depending on the case of each patient, the duration may vary. At Birbe Clinic, we always recommend a first visit with a specialist, who will be able to give a more approximate timetable, depending on the state of the patient's teeth. However, the treatment can last from 8 to 24 months.It is important to add that, once removed, it is essential to place fixed retainers, as teeth naturally tend to return to their initial position. Thanks to these mini wire strands, permanent results will be achieved. However, there is another effective alternative for use after treatment. We are talking about transparent splints, which prevent tooth movement and are worn at night.All retainers require maintenance over time.
How effective are internal braces?
This fixed orthodontic technique differs from conventional orthodontics in that it is the only one in which absolutely nothing can be seen after fitting. Lingual braces are those that are placed on the inside of the tooth, which is why they are not visible. They are usually more uncomfortable at first.Doubts may arise as to its effectiveness, as it is a less commonly used technique, but this appliance is just as effective as other orthodontic systems, such as clear braces or conventional metal braces.
Is the price of braces very high?
Depending on the type chosen, the price may vary, although the budget is not very high.As we have already mentioned, it is important to have a visit with one of our experts so that they can advise you on the best option for your case. It will be, from this moment on, that we will be able to adjust the budget. Don't hesitate, improve your smile at Birbe Clinic, and make it your strong point!
