Metal Braces

For decades, metal braces have been one of the most reliable and widely used orthodontic treatments for achieving straighter, healthier smiles. They are especially effective in correcting complex cases of misalignment, closing gaps, and addressing bite issues such as overbites, underbites, or crossbites. Metal braces use a system of brackets and wires that apply gentle, continuous pressure, gradually shifting teeth into their proper positions. Thanks to advancements in modern dentistry, today’s braces are smaller, lighter, and more comfortable than ever before, making treatment easier for patients of all ages. At Aragona Dentistry, we customize each treatment plan to ensure the best possible results, focusing on precision, comfort, and long-term oral health. Beyond aesthetics, properly aligned teeth improve chewing, speech, and oral hygiene by making teeth easier to clean and maintain. With their proven track record of success and durability, metal braces remain a trusted orthodontic solution that can transform your smile and boost your confidence for years to come.

Metal braces use brackets attached to each tooth, connected by wires that apply steady, gentle pressure. Over time, this pressure gradually shifts teeth into better alignment. Adjustments are made periodically to guide movement, ensuring precise results and long-term improvements in both smile appearance and bite function.

Your orthodontic journey begins with a full evaluation of your teeth, bite, and jaw alignment. A customized treatment plan is created to address your specific needs.

Metal brackets are carefully bonded to your teeth and connected with a thin archwire. Adjustments are made regularly to gradually shift your teeth into their proper positions.

With routine visits, your braces are adjusted to keep your smile moving in the right direction. Guidance on oral care and diet is provided to protect your teeth and gums throughout treatment.

While you may feel some tightness or pressure after adjustments, most patients adjust quickly. Advancements in design have made today’s braces smoother and more comfortable.

Treatment time varies depending on your alignment needs, but most patients wear braces for 18 to 24 months.

You’ll need to avoid certain sticky, hard, or chewy foods that can damage braces. Our team provides clear guidance to make eating with braces easier.

Not at all; many adults choose metal braces to improve their smiles and oral health. Braces are effective at any age.

I pass 16 and Garfield every week day and see Aragona Dental's sign. This morning my partner woke up with a major dental issue. Of course, I remembered their sign about availability. He was able to get a same day appointment with their kind, caring staff who offered him a great non-insurance deal. Also, he got super anxious and called their office twice before they were actually opened. Their office staff called us back twice about those missed calls right after they opened. His issue was resolved for a decent price and took less than 90 minutes from the start of his appointment time, including x-rays.

I want to give my sincerest thank you to Aragona Dentistry. In particular, DR. KHALIL ABDALLAH who has done three of my crowns. If it’s possible to fall in love with a tooth, well, I am in love. I had a bad experience with my previous dentist and because of it, sought out a new dentist office. I could not have found a better office and cosmetic dentist. Dr. ABDALLAH is a master of his trade and his work is a work of art. I am so happy I found him. I also want to say that my dental hygienist, Rebecca is also excellent. I feel like my mouth, gums and teeth are in good hands.

This was my first time visiting this dental office, and I honestly couldn’t be more impressed. My usual dentist didn’t have any openings, and with a severe toothache and limited options available on a Saturday, I was relieved to find this practice. From the moment I walked in, the experience was impeccable. The front desk staff, especially Cindy, greeted me with a warm smile and a genuinely positive energy that immediately put me at ease. Jenna, the assistant, was kind, compassionate and attentive, and Dr. Abdullah was professional, and efficient. Despite being busy, they saw me exactly at my scheduled time — no waiting, no delays — and I was out in a timely manner. What really stood out to me was the care and patience everyone showed throughout the visit. Cindy, in particular, took the time to clearly explain my next steps, offer multiple options, and never once made me feel rushed or pressured. That kind of transparency and support goes a long way when you’re in pain and unsure of what to expect. I’m beyond thankful for the entire team. Their professionalism, compassion, and ability to make a new patient feel so welcomed and comfortable was truly exceptional. I highly recommend them and will absolutely return.
