Peoria Metal Braces
A Time-Tested Treatment
Modern metal braces at Teeters Orthodontics remain one of the most effective, reliable ways to straighten teeth. Whether you’re treating a complex bite or looking for long-term results you can trust, this option continues to deliver for patients of all ages.
Built to Last,
Designed to Move
Today’s metal braces are a far cry from what they used to be. At Teeters Orthodontics, we use modern metal brackets that are smaller, smoother, and more comfortable—without sacrificing power or precision.
This system uses a combination of brackets, archwires, and elastics to guide your teeth into their ideal position over time. Bonded directly to the teeth, metal braces provide 24/7 support, making them especially effective for more complex cases.
Dr. Christopher Teeters leverages decades of clinical expertise and cutting-edge techniques to give you maximum control and predictable outcomes. For a tried-and-true solution with modern comfort, metal braces remain a top choice for getting a straight smile.
Why Metal Braces Still
Lead the Way
Metal braces continue to be one of the most dependable and effective orthodontic treatments—especially for patients who want maximum precision and minimal guesswork.
Reliable Results for Every Smile
Metal braces are suitable for nearly all orthodontic needs, including spacing issues, crowding, and bite problems. They’re a great choice for kids, teens, and adults alike.
Stronger Materials, Smoother Experience
We use high-grade stainless steel brackets that are durable enough for active lifestyles and gentle enough for everyday wear. Today’s designs are lower-profile and less intrusive than past generations.
Full Control at Every Step
Because metal braces are fixed in place, Dr. Teeters can make frequent and precise adjustments throughout treatment. This allows for a more targeted approach and often faster progress.
Colorful Customization
Patients can personalize their braces with colored elastic bands. It’s a fun way to show off school spirit, match the season—or just express your style while working toward a better smile.
