Whether you have a child whose dentist recommended an orthodontic treatment or an adult wanting straight teeth, at Haltom Orthodontics Paseo, we offer traditional metal braces as a treatment for a beautiful smile. We want to help you make an informed choice as you seek to get a straighter smile and a healthier mouth. Braces can fix poor tooth alignment and crooked or crowded teeth. Neglecting to correct your abnormal bite can actually cause different oral health problems like tooth decay, gum disease, and jaw issues. Call our orthodontics office in Paseo, NM, to book your virtual consultation.
Braces are more affordable than other teeth alignment methods. You also don’t have to worry about misplacing them or accidentally losing your equipment. The end results will improve your self-esteem and your bite. Traditional braces can treat a wide range of issues, including:
Even though traditional metal braces might seem intimidating and painful, recent advancements have provided more lightweight and comfortable options.

Brushing and flossing is very important to help get rid of food inside the metal framing. Learn more about traditional metal braces by contacting us today.
