Why metal braces still win

Metal braces handle everything: severe crowding, rotations, bite correction and cases aligners cannot finish. They are the most affordable option, they never get lost, and colored elastics make them fun for kids and teens.

At Payne Orthodontics your brackets are placed with digital precision using indirect bonding and 3D treatment planning, which means fewer adjustments and a shorter total treatment time.
