Fixed Appliances Vs. Removable Appliances
At Pierce Orthodontics, we find that it’s often helpful for our Mt. Pleasant patients to know the difference between fixed and removable appliances before starting treatment.
Dr. Tim attaches fixed appliances, like braces, to your teeth, and they’ll stay on until your treatment is entirely finished.
When Dr. Tim prescribes a removable appliance like Invisalign, you’ll wear the trays most of the day but you can remove them to eat, or drink anything other than water, or for special occasions.
Besides the obvious differences, Pierce Orthodontics uses clear aligners to treat mild to moderate orthodontic problems. Dr. Tim tends to use fixed appliances for comprehensive treatment and more complex cases.
