What you should know ….
Bracketing is a long and tedious procedure.
It is not painful, no needles are necessary.
It must be performed with great care to insure an optimum result of your orthodontic treatment

Precise bracket placement is the most important aspect in orthodontic alignment, after correct diagnosis and treatment planning.

The duration of treatment is usually shorter in cases where bracket placement is optimal. This is the reason why we ask for your patience during bracket placement.
