The materials and technology used to make braces have evolved over the last couple of decades so that people can now get gold braces. Gold braces are different from the typical clear or silver coated braces in that the stainless steel components are gold in color. This creates a uniform look where brackets on the teeth and wire are also gold. However, there are a couple of things that people should know about getting gold braces.
The first thing people should know about getting gold braces is that, like all other braces, they need to go for a dental appointment before installing them. According to the narrator in the video, dental appointments show patients the problems with their teeth. Also, some corrections, like cavity filling, must be done before the braces are installed.
The second thing people should know about getting gold braces is that they need to get their teeth cleaned periodically. People with gold braces go for deep cleaning about twice a year, and the wire must be removed before cleaning.
The third thing people should know about gold braces is the cost. Since they’re made with gold, they don’t come cheap. According to myclevelandclinic.org, gold braces cost between $3,000 and $6,000, but insurance can sometimes reduce the cost.
