What are metal braces?

Metal braces are a proven orthodontic solution that use stainless steel brackets and archwires to guide teeth into better alignment. At Wilkinson Orthodontics, our metal braces are modern, low-profile, and comfortable - offering reliability without compromising on appearance or performance.

Braces remain the most widely used teeth-straightening solution in Australia. They are particularly effective for complex cases and provide consistent control over tooth movement throughout your treatment journey.

How do metal braces work?

Once bonded to your teeth, metal braces work by applying gentle, steady pressure through a system of brackets and archwires. Over time, this pressure guides your teeth into their ideal positions, correcting crowding, spacing, bite issues and more.

At your regular appointments, our Specialist Orthodontists make small adjustments to ensure steady progress. Depending on your case, treatment can last anywhere from 9-24 months, with visible improvements often seen within the first few months.
