YOURPRACTICE.ie is a state of the art facility situated in Dublin 2. We first opened our doors in January 2010 as an orthodontic practice but have since become a specialist practice with an oral surgeon situated under one roof.

Whether you have braces on already or you’re thinking about getting braces, we are sure you’ve wondered how braces actually work!

Braces are made up of a number of different parts. The important ones to note are;

Brackets - These are the metal or ceramic squares that are glued onto your teeth and will stay there throughout your treatment.

Archwires - These are thin, rod-like metal wires. The arch wire is tied to all of the brackets snd creates force to move teeth into proper alignment.

Ligatures - The archwire is held into each bracket with a ligature which can either be a tiny elastic or a tiny twisted wire.

"New dental practice is one to watch"

Smiles all round as YOURPRACTICE.ie was named Best New Practice at the recent Irish Dentistry Awards

It’s not just the patients who leave YOURPRACTICE.ie with a grin: the staff are all beaming too after the dental practice triumphed at a national award ceremony.

To keep you motivated to eat right while you have braces let’s first talk about why it’s important to avoid certain foods. You want your braces off as soon as possible to show off your smile, right? Then you’ll want to avoid hard, crunchy foods that can bend wires and pop off brackets, slowing down the braces process. And when you do get your braces off, you wouldn’t want to find yourself with a splotchy smile from soda stains outlining where your brackets were.

At YOURPRACTICE.ie, we believe it is never too late to get the smile you have always wanted.
