What are braces?

Braces straighten teeth and correct bite problems using brackets bonded to the teeth and a wire that applies steady pressure. Options include metal, ceramic (tooth-coloured) and lingual braces placed behind the teeth. Treatment usually lasts 18–36 months.

Braces: specialist or general dentist?

Orthodontists provide most braces treatment and have 2–3 extra years of training in tooth and jaw alignment. Some general dentists offer braces for simpler cases. Complex bites and jaw growth problems are usually best handled by an orthodontist.

None of Oroville's 29 clinics offering braces list an orthodontist on staff in our data yet. See orthodontists in Oroville

How much do braces cost in Oroville?

Do general dentists in Oroville do braces?

Are braces covered by insurance or Medicaid in California?

Do braces hurt?
