Metal Braces

Irving Braces

Choosing braces at Ward Orthodontics is a smart way to tackle tough alignment issues. Because metal brackets and wires apply constant, precise pressure, they often close gaps and straighten teeth faster than other options, sometimes shaving months off total treatment time.

Braces also rely on time-tested materials rather than high-tech add-ons, which keeps them one of the most budget-friendly orthodontic solutions in Irving. Here’s how they work: small stainless-steel or ceramic brackets are bonded to each tooth, then linked with a thin archwire and tiny elastics.

During quick adjustment visits, Dr. Ward fine-tunes that wire so gentle force keeps your teeth moving exactly where they need to go. The system is simple, sturdy, and highly effective. That's why braces make a reliable choice for smiles of any age.

Clear Aligners

Irving Clear Aligners

Clear aligners are the go-to alternative for patients who want a low-profile path to a straight smile. Instead of brackets and wires, you'll wear a custom set of clear, removable trays that guide your teeth a little more with each switch.

Crafted from smooth, BPA-free plastic, these aligners fit snugly over your teeth and stay nearly invisible in day-to-day life. Success with clear aligners depends on consistency: wear them 20–22 hours a day and trade trays every week or two, exactly as Dr. Ward instructs.

Stick to the schedule, and you'll see steady progress without food restrictions or complicated cleaning routines. While clear aligners handle most mild to moderate cases with ease, some complex bites still do better with braces. A free consultation in our Irving office lets Dr. Ward determine whether clear aligners are the perfect match for your smile goals.
