Traditional wire and bracket orthodontics offer significant benefits for individuals dealing with moderate to severe dental issues such as crowding, misalignment, and malocclusion. At Dental Studio of Melissa, Dr. Lena Khan uses braces to reposition and realign teeth for a healthier, straighter smile. Brackets work with a thin metal wire that is adjusted during appointments, making braces a suitable choice for children, teenagers, and adults in Melissa, TX.
Metal braces are a versatile solution for patients of all ages, effectively addressing a range of orthodontic concerns. Common issues that braces can successfully correct include:
Since braces remain attached until professionally removed, they are suitable for patients of all ages, and an assessment can determine if they would benefit you.
Treatment begins with a comprehensive consultation that includes x-rays, digital impressions, and an examination. Metal brackets are then attached to your teeth, and a thin metal wire is threaded through them and secured with small rubber bands available in various colors. You will visit us every few weeks for adjustments to ensure continued progress. Treatment can range from a few months to several years depending on the individual case, and we strive to make it as comfortable and efficient as possible.

If someone told me I'd have a 5-star experience at a dentist of all places, I'd call them a liar. Well, I just had two.

I needed dental work that I had put off for years because I was terrified of the dentist. I thought it was going to be so painful, but it wasn't.
