Teeth Braces at Tribeca – Upper East Side

Welcome to orthodontics designed around your comfort and confidence. Led by our experienced team, we provide custom treatment plans for patients of all ages seeking a straighter smile and improved oral health.

What Are the Types of Braces?

Braces are orthodontic appliances used to correct misaligned teeth, bite issues, and overcrowding. Traditional braces include brackets, wires, and rubber bands that apply gentle pressure to move teeth into better alignment. We offer:

  • Metal braces
  • Lingual braces (hidden behind the teeth)
  • Invisalign treatment (clear aligner therapy)

How Do Braces Work?

Braces gradually shift your teeth into optimal alignment using continuous, gentle pressure. You’ll visit us every 4–6 weeks for adjustments to ensure steady progress and a healthy bite.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Braces?

You may benefit from braces if you have:

  • Crooked or crowded teeth
  • Overbite, underbite, open bite
  • Crossbite
  • Gaps between teeth
  • Difficulty chewing or bite discomfort


If you’ve been searching for “braces near me in Upper East Side”, we can help determine whether metal braces, adult braces, lingual braces, or Invisalign is right for you.

Adjusting to Life With Braces – Helpful Tips

  • Oral Hygiene: Brush after meals and floss daily. Orthodontic brushes and interdental cleaners help keep areas around brackets and wires clean.

     

  • Eating & Food Choices: Avoid sticky, chewy, and hard foods. Choose softer options and cut larger foods into smaller pieces to protect your brackets.
    .
  • Comfort Tips: Mild soreness after adjustments is normal. Orthodontic wax, warm saltwater rinses, and OTC pain relief can help ease discomfort.
