Faster Treatment Time with Double Braces
One of the biggest benefits of double braces is the significantly faster treatment time compared to traditional metal braces. While traditional braces usually take 2-3 years to straighten teeth, double braces can align your teeth in just 6-18 months.
This faster timeline is possible because double braces utilize gentle, constant pressure on the teeth to move them into place quickly and efficiently. The removable plastic aligners are changed out every 1-2 weeks, with each new set moving the teeth incrementally. This constant gentle force enables faster movement than the intermittent pressure of traditional wire braces.
In just a matter of months, double braces can completely transform your smile. Those with mild to moderate alignment issues are the best candidates for faster treatment with double braces. More severe cases may still require a longer treatment time, but likely less than old-fashioned braces.
If you’re an adult who wants to avoid having unsightly metal braces for years, or a teenager who wants to get a straighter smile before prom season, double braces are the clear choice. Why wait 2-3 years for results when you could have your new smile in just 6-18 months? The faster timeline makes double braces an appealing choice for patients of any age looking to improve their teeth quickly.
Consult with an orthodontist to determine if you are a good candidate for faster teeth straightening with double braces. With innovative technology and materials, double braces are giving people the smiles they want in record time. Don’t waste another day living with crooked or gapped teeth when faster options like double braces exist! Dramatically boost your confidence and enjoy a beautiful new smile soon with rapid-acting double braces.
How Do Double Braces Work?

Double braces straighten teeth using a combination of removable plastic aligners and fixed braces brackets and wires. This dual approach provides the benefits of two different orthodontic technologies in one treatment.
The removable clear aligner component works similarly to Invisalign. A series of custom-made, clear plastic aligners are produced, each applies light pressure to incrementally shift the teeth. The aligners are changed out every 1-2 weeks, with each new set moving the teeth slightly closer to the desired position.
Unlike clear aligners alone, double braces also incorporate fixed braces brackets and wires attached to the teeth. The brackets give the teeth extra anchorage and the wires apply orthodontic force to guide the teeth’s movement. This ensures the teeth are moved fully into the planned position.
The combination of the aligners and fixed braces enables rapid and effective tooth movement. The aligners gently push and shift the teeth consistently, while the fixed braces provide targeted pressure on individual teeth as needed. Together, they deliver fast and accurate results.
Patients wear the removable aligners for 20-22 hours per day, only removing them for eating, brushing, and flossing. The aligners can be taken out for important events and photos as well. At night, patients switch to wearing a thicker “overcorrection” aligner to keep the teeth moving.
Every 4-8 weeks, patients see their orthodontist for a tightening appointment. The wires are changed and tightened, placing new pressure on the teeth. New aligners are given to match the teeth’s current position. Progress is monitored using advanced 3D modeling.
In as little as 6-18 months, the two components work together to achieve a dramatically straighter, properly aligned smile. Double braces transform smiles up to twice as fast as braces alone. Consult an orthodontist to see if you’re a candidate for double braces!
Benefits of Double Braces Over Traditional Braces

Double braces provide a number of advantages over traditional metal braces in terms of comfort, convenience, and aesthetics. Patients who want straighter teeth but don’t want old-fashioned “train tracks” can benefit from this innovative hybrid system.
One of the biggest perks of double braces is that they are removable. The clear plastic aligners can be taken out for eating, drinking, brushing, flossing, and special occasions. This makes meals, oral hygiene, and events much easier compared to braces cemented in place.
The ability to remove the aligners also makes keeping your teeth clean much simpler. Food and plaque do not easily become trapped around the orthodontics like they do with fixed braces. Being able to brush and floss normally helps maintain better oral health.
In addition, double braces are far less irritating on the cheeks and gums than metal wires and brackets. The smooth plastic is gentle and comfortable rather than abrasive. There is no hardware poking or rubbing inside the mouth.
Double braces are also more aesthetically pleasing than metal braces. While not 100% invisible like clear aligners alone, the plastic is transparent and the brackets/wires are smaller and tooth-colored. This gives a very discreet appearance compared to the highly noticeable silver metal work of traditional braces.
Along with being less visible, double braces also don’t impact speech as severely as fixed braces. Without metal wires behind the teeth, the aligners allow for clearer speaking. Teens won’t have to deal with a lisp from braces.
Finally, double braces exert gentler, more consistent force on the teeth than braces alone. This leads to less pain and discomfort in the mouth. The dual approach also leads to less root resorption and white spot lesions compared to regular braces.
With advantages in comfort, hygiene, aesthetics, and oral health, double braces provide an improved experience over old-fashioned metal braces. Consult an orthodontist to see if this more modern approach is right for your smile goals.
