Braces: The Most Clinically Versatile Orthodontic Option
Braces fix to the teeth and apply continuous, controlled pressure to move them into alignment. Because they do not rely on patient compliance and work around the clock, they are the most reliable choice for a wide spectrum of cases, from minor crowding through to significant bite corrections that aligners alone cannot address. Explore braces treatment at Egger Orthodontics.
Braces at Egger OrthodonticsHow Braces Work
Brackets are bonded directly to each tooth and linked by a precision archwire. At each adjustment appointment, Dr. Egger modifies the wire to continue advancing tooth movement according to the staged treatment plan. The process is methodical and the results are highly predictable. Modern brackets are smaller and more comfortable than older systems, and today’s wires apply lighter forces that move teeth more efficiently with less discomfort between visits.
Benefits of Braces for Newcastle Patients
For Newcastle patients looking for a fixed, reliable orthodontic solution that works regardless of age or case complexity, braces deliver consistent results that stand the test of time.
Always Working
Fixed to the teeth, braces apply continuous pressure day and night without requiring the patient to remember anything.
Suitable for Any Case
From mild alignment issues to complex bite and jaw corrections, braces handle the full clinical range effectively.
Metal or Ceramic Options
Choose between stainless steel brackets for maximum durability or tooth-colored ceramic brackets for a more discreet appearance.
Highly Predictable Results
Decades of clinical refinement make braces one of the most well-understood and consistently effective treatments in orthodontics.

The Braces Process at Egger Orthodontics
Every braces case at Egger Orthodontics follows a clear, staged process designed to produce the best possible clinical outcome with the least disruption to everyday life.
Step 1: Free Consultation
Dr. Nadine Egger assesses your teeth, bite, jaw alignment, and facial development at no cost. She explains what type of braces she recommends for your case, gives you an accurate treatment timeline, and provides a complete cost breakdown.
Step 2: Clinical Records
Digital X-rays and clinical photographs give Dr. Egger the full picture she needs to build your personalised treatment plan. Every stage of tooth movement is mapped out before a single bracket is placed, so you know exactly what to expect throughout.
Step 3: Brackets Bonded
At a single appointment, brackets are bonded to your teeth and the initial archwire is seated. Dr. Egger walks you through first-week expectations, eating adjustments, and daily care. Our braces care guide is available as an ongoing reference throughout treatment.
Step 4: Adjustment Appointments Every 4 to 6 Weeks
Regular appointments allow Dr. Egger to advance treatment by adjusting or replacing the archwire. Each visit is typically 20 to 30 minutes and easy to schedule around Newcastle school and work routines.
Step 5: Debond and Custom Retainers
When teeth reach their target positions, brackets are removed and teeth are polished at the same appointment. Custom retainers are fitted immediately to lock in your result permanently, along with a clear retention schedule from Dr. Egger.

Frequently Asked Questions About Braces near Newcastle
Questions Newcastle patients commonly ask before starting braces at Egger Orthodontics.
How far is Egger Orthodontics from Newcastle?
About 10 to 12 miles via Coal Creek Parkway SE to I-90 East, typically 15 minutes under normal conditions. Early morning slots from 7:00 AM make it easy to visit before work or school.
When should my child start seeing an orthodontist?
The American Association of Orthodontists recommends a first check by age seven. Dr. Egger can identify early bite or alignment issues at that stage and monitor development before treatment becomes necessary.
Are ceramic braces as effective as metal braces?
Yes. Ceramic brackets use the same mechanical principles as metal and deliver comparable clinical results. The main difference is appearance. Dr. Egger recommends the right option based on your case at the free consultation.
How long does braces treatment take?
Most cases fall between 12 and 24 months depending on complexity. Dr. Egger gives Newcastle patients a realistic, case-specific timeline at the free consultation, not a generic average.
What can I not eat with braces?
Hard, sticky, and chewy foods that can damage brackets or bend wires should be avoided. Full guidance is on our braces care page, and Dr. Egger covers it at the fitting appointment.
