Top 5 Myths About Braces – Garland Orthodontist Sets the Record Straight
At Beyond Braces in Garland, TX, we hear all kinds of questions from patients considering orthodontic treatment. There’s a lot of outdated or just plain wrong information out there — and today, we’re here to clear things up!
Here are the top 5 myths about braces, and the truth behind each one:
Myth #1: Braces are only for kids
Truth: While many patients start treatment in their teens, braces are for all ages — including adults! At Beyond Braces, we treat plenty of adult patients from Garland who want to improve their smiles for professional, health, or personal reasons. It’s never too late to get started.
Myth #2: Braces are painful the entire time
Truth: Braces may cause mild discomfort after adjustments, but they shouldn’t be painful long-term. Most patients in Garland describe the sensation as “pressure” that fades after a day or two. And we’ll guide you every step of the way to keep you comfortable.
Myth #3: Braces take forever to work
Truth: Orthodontic treatment can vary, but many cases are completed in 18–24 months — especially with consistent care. We create customized treatment plans at Beyond Braces to make your journey efficient and effective.
Myth #4: Metal braces are your only option
Truth: Nope! We offer clear braces and Invisalign for patients looking for more discreet options. Whether you want the classic metal look or something low-key, we’ve got choices that fit your lifestyle.
