Tried & Trusted for Straighter Teeth
Trust that you’ll get the straighter, healthier smile you’ve always wanted with metal braces at Savage Orthodontics.
Modern improvements to this traditional treatment mean you can worry less and enjoy life more.
Modern System,
Timeless Benefits
At Savage Orthodontics, you can reap the benefits of our new, modern braces system. From shorter treatment times to comfort like never before, enjoy a treatment that puts you first.
Time-Tested Durability
Metal braces are strong and last a long time. They're made of high-quality stainless steel, so they can handle everything your treatment throws at them.
This strength is super helpful for kids and teens who are always on the go and might be a bit rougher on their braces. You deserve braces that can keep up with you and not break easily.
Less Time In Our Office
The modern design of our metal braces means you’ll enjoy fewer adjustments throughout your treatment.
Won't Break the Bank
Metal braces are a budget-friendly choice for getting your teeth in line. Braces are generally more affordable than clear aligners, ceramic braces, and other treatment options.
Did you know that orthodontic treatment also helps keep your mouth healthy? Straight teeth are easier to clean, which means you're less likely to get cavities or gum problems.
Comfort Like Never Before
Modern brackets have a design that makes them smoother and smaller to boost your comfort throughout your treatment. You’ll enjoy less irritation and have a more pleasant treatment journey.
Better Teeth Alignment
Metal braces are workhorses, helping to align your teeth no matter how complex your orthodontic issue.
After each new adjustment, you’ll feel some additional pressure against your teeth, but you can trust that these braces will gradually nudge your smile into a grin worth showing off.
Not Easily Misplaced
While clear aligners are discreet, they’re also removable — meaning you can possibly lose them.
Metal braces, on the other hand, are a fixed appliance. They stay in place over the course of your smile journey, so you never have to worry about keeping up with them.
Five Steps to Your
Savage Smile
Dr. Savage and our team are braces experts, which means your procedure will be swift, painless, and effective.
Here’s what you can expect:
1. Have a Chat
You’ll stop by our New Braunfels orthodontic office for your free consultation where you’ll get to meet the awesome Savage Orthodontics family.
We’ll examine your mouth, snap a few photos, and take digital X-rays and impressions (no goopy molds here!).
Then, Dr. Savage will determine your diagnosis and the best course of treatment. He’ll sit down with you and your parents — unless you’re a grown-up, of course — and chat about your treatment goals and options.
Our team will also answer any questions so you can make an informed decision.
2. Get Your Braces On
Woohoo! Time to kick-off your smile journey. This part is pain-free and requires exactly zero needles.
Dr. Savage will simply attach the brackets to your teeth with special glue. A team member will then place the archwires, and if you want to wear colored elastics, you can choose your favorite shades.
The process takes about 45 minutes to an hour. Once it’s complete, we’ll explain how to care for your new braces and you’ll be on your way.
3. Visit Us Every Month or Two
Every four to eight weeks, you’ll swing by for an appointment. Dr. Savage and our expert team will check on your progress and make any necessary adjustments to get you one step closer to your fresh, new smile.
Every single time you visit, Dr. Savage will meet with you, answer your questions, and keep you updated so that you’re confident about your treatment.
For kids and teens, we make sure their parents or guardians know exactly what’s going on, too.
4. Say Goodbye to Your Braces
When your smile transformation is complete, our team will gently remove your braces and wires. This is a special day, and we want to celebrate with you!
We want to send you back into the world healthier and happier than you’ve ever been. After some final pictures and sad goodbyes, you head back into the world to share your amazing new smile and spread joy everywhere you go.
We hope that you will become an advocate for our practice. We know it is a privilege to be entrusted with your smile, and we don’t take that lightly.
5. Say Hello to Your Retainers
When you finish your braces treatment, your teeth have a natural tendency to shift back toward their old places.
The key to preventing this — and keeping your new smile looking amazing — is wearing a retainer.
We’ll create a custom retainer just for you once your braces come off. The appliance will stabilize your teeth in their new positions and ensure your results last a lifetime.
