Dr. Farrar with the treatise on the correction of the position of the teeth is considered one of the first to suggest that such defects be corrected by moderate forces applied over a long time. Many people knew about this much earlier, but did not write treatises on this topic, but actually used the gold wire for this (as indicated by the excavations of ancient burial grounds).

Teeth braces
The method for correcting the positioning of the teeth has not changed according to the principle of action, but thanks to brackets it has become more convenient for doctors and less painful for patients. The bracket itself is almost flat plate, one part of which is glued to the tooth, and on the other side there is a groove for a thin metal arc that performs a strength function.
The arc is either held in the groove with a clip (latch), or pressed to the bracket with a ligature (rubber band). In the first case Braces are called self-blasting. The teeth under the action of constant force are gradually squeezed into the desired position. This procedure can take a long time, up to 3 years.
All this is possible if there are no contraindications:
- Tuberculosis.
- Immune diseases.
- Bone pathology.
- Blood disorders.
- Diabetes.
Runet metamorphosis
The one who thinks clearly, clearly states. Boris Berezovsky could explain to his mother, far from the exact sciences, the meaning of his doctoral dissertation, and she understood well what this was about. When there is no clear understanding of their own, many people insert foreign pseudoscientific words so that it is not clear to others, but it sounded mysterious.
If the search engine to type "brackets on the teeth," it will give sites that are completely different from the query "braces on the teeth." It's not just the search engine device. It seems that we are talking about the same thing: the bracket (eng. Bracket is a bracket), but the authors seem to have studied in different schools.
The first ones graduated from a normal Russian school and explain what they are for, and what brackets are, and the second, as if claiming to be advanced, chirping about a certain breakthrough of technologies in bracket systems, forgetting that the clip (clasp) on the bracket is incomparably easier to make than put in the same size millions of transistors.
This advancement is more like a clerk with a claim to good manners: buy-with, from Germany with an airplane-with, be in the trend-with. But in the eyes of a normal person, the achievements of dentists against the background of modern civilization look like a cartwheel on a Mercedes, on which instead of a tire a gold rim is offered, and instead of ordinary wooden spokes: a triumph of technology - almost invisible sapphire. But commercial success is quite obvious.
Staples for teeth can be made from various materials and glued to the outside or inside, in accordance with this, they are differently called.
Outer brackets
Other name - vestibular braces. They are glued to the outside of the teeth and, in turn, are divided by the type of materials.
- Metal braces. The most affordable design. This is exactly what you need for a successful correction. The only thing that stops patients from such a choice is the complete frankness of the design: it is clearly visible for what and how everything is done. Anyone who is ready for an open struggle for beauty will only emphasize his determination to get rid of all the complexes. The average price for all about 60 000 rubles.
- Plastic braces.Made to match the color of the teeth, they are not as noticeable as the metal ones, but at the same time they are inferior in strength. In addition, the color may change under the action of vegetable dyes.
- Ceramic Braces. They look very attractive and this may cause excessive curiosity rather than hiding the structure. The average price is about 90,000 rubles.
- Sapphire Braces. The most imperceptible and expensive brackets are more likely the lot of rich people who are used to flaunting their quirks. Depending on the region and the clinic, they cost from 100,000 rubles and more. On successful photos such braces for teeth not only do not spoil the pretty face, but even give it a certain charm.
Internal brackets
They have another strange name: lingual braces (lingua - lat. language). What does the language have to do with the attachment of brackets, only physicians know, but they clearly interfere with the language itself - the first weeks most patients have difficulty with diction.
Internal braces are trying to make them as flat as possible in order to reduce discomfort for patients. They are almost imperceptible, but you have to pay for everything: the price due to the inconvenience of maintenance may increase even by 100,000 rubles in comparison with similar external braces.
Whatever the correction procedure, there is always some risk of failure. With a large deformation of the dentition, the shape of the face may also change. Correcting the wrong bite often causes a change in the position of the chin. It is easy to find a photo by which it is clear that the patient should be satisfied with his new look in profile. But any commercial organization demonstrates only success, and bad stories can be found on the forums.
Deceived expectations in the easy case cause only a grudge, which is quickly forgotten. But the collapse of hopes after long trials creates not only a new deadlock, but also a greater burden on the psyche. It is easy to find a lot of good reviews on the forums, some of which can be customized, and bad stories do not look like a dirty trick to the doctor - they are also found in Western clinics where insurance is much more reliable.
A very experienced orthodontist can predict actions leading to a deadlock position and immediately suggest that a tooth be removed, which makes it difficult to carry out the necessary correction without significant jaw deformities. Computer programs created with regard to many parameters that are consistent with practice make it much easier and more reliable.
To do this, it is enough to make good dental impressions and x-rays, and better MRI (magnetic resonance imaging). The price of casts and MRI is a small amount compared with the total cost of treatment.
Such correction support has obvious advantages:
-
Individual approach at all stages of treatment. - Easy to model correction at any stage.
- The patient can visually show all the steps and agree on the nuances of concern.
- At each reception, an arc of a new form is established, which ensures the minimum necessary effort on the teeth.
- Difficult cases leading to dramatic, dead-end situations under normal conditions are easily predicted. The patient will immediately be shown the options: a large, long-term correction that causes a change in the shape of the face and an alternative plan of action with tooth extraction.
- Thanks to an individual approach, treatment time is reduced.
Cost of teeth correction
Dentists use pain points and vanity just as well as politicians: the cost of teeth correction depends on the price of materials, on the region, on prestige, and on the monopoly position of a well-equipped clinic. Cost of treatment with lingual braces Incognito, taken at random from https://www.ortodont.org/ makes 368 000 rubles and obviously not the limit.
There would be money, and there will always be a diagnosis and illness, and the doctor here is not the main culprit. For entrepreneurs, the head and hands of a doctor are the same goods as other materials. Effective demand largely determines the cost of treatment. The range of prices in teeth brackets may be greater than in pharmacies for the same drugs. In the first place, it is worthwhile to put not the material of braces, but the choice of the clinic and doctor.
Soberly weighing your financial capabilities and intentions, you need to talk to your doctor about all the details of the correction. Do not be shy that you are taking someone else's time - if you are a doctor by vocation, he will show complete understanding, and a commercial vein in a mercantile person with a long conversation will surely show up. A very good doctor may turn out to be a bad merchant, but this will only emphasize his human qualities.
