Braces: A Greek invention!
Around 400-300 BC, Hippocrates and Aristotle contemplated ways to straighten teeth and fix various dental conditions. Archaeologists have discovered numerous mummified ancient individuals with what appear to be metal bands wrapped around their teeth. Catgut, a type of cord made from the natural fibers of an animal's intestines, performed a similar role to today’s orthodontic wire in closing gaps in the teeth and mouth. We are happy that we can offer our patients state of the art treatments like Speed-, Damon-, or Incognito- Braces as well as Invisalign aligners. Make an appointment today to discuss the best orthodontic treatment for you.
