Discover metal braces in Perth with Class 1 Orthodontics
So, you need braces? You’ve come to the right place! At Class 1 Orthodontics, with 6 convenient locations across West Perth and Western Australia, our Specialist Orthodontists have been straightening teeth for over 20 years. We're experts in Perth for braces and we offer tailored treatments to help you achieve a confident smile.
For many patients, traditional metal braces remain a popular and effective option. They’re reliable, versatile, and work wonders for achieving beautifully aligned teeth. Here’s how they work.
What are metal braces?
Metal braces are what most people associate with orthodontic treatment. They have brackets attached to the front of your teeth with a thin archwire connecting them. The method also uses elastic bands which help to apply gentle pressure to the brackets and archwires to move your teeth into position.
It’s a relatively simple method which is incredibly effective and one we continue to get great results with.

Who are metal braces suitable for?
Metal braces are suitable for everyone. They can fix both major and minor orthodontic problems in children, teens and adults. Children can also have fun with them by choosing different coloured elastic bands to liven up their braces.

Benefits of metal braces
Other orthodontic appliances on the market, such as clear braces and Invisalign have meant metal braces sometimes get overlooked by patients. This is understandable because to be fair, metal braces aren’t the most discreet of treatment options. The brackets and archwires are visible and you can’t take them off to brush and floss your teeth, like you can with Invisalign aligners.
That’s not to say they don’t have their benefits. At Class 1 Orthodontics, we believe metal braces have a lot going for them. Here’s why:
- More sleek and comfortable than ever before. Traditionally, metal braces were considered very obvious and clunky, but today they're different. Thanks to advances in orthodontic technology, braces are less intrusive and more discreet.
- Still a very common treatment option. Metal braces are still the most common treatment option among children and teens due to the popular reputation the appliance has developed worldwide.

- The wire does most of the work. Braces are a sophisticated treatment option. Each tooth has its own bracket designed to achieve the correct position and angle. The brackets and bands are connected by a very thin wire that is adjusted in regular intervals to move your teeth into their desired positions.
- You can still maintain good dental hygiene. The tricky part about braces treatment is making sure you brush and floss regularly, but it is possible. If you let your oral hygiene slip, you may be left with bacterial build up and we don’t want that! Although your teeth can be harder to get to when wearing braces, we’ll give you some top tips to make keeping them clean easy.
- They're affordable. Traditional metal braces remain one of the most affordable treatment options, and because they achieve such good results, they’re great value for money.
