How To Keep Your Braces Clean and Teeth Healthy
Chaska, Eden Prairie, Waconia, & Minnetonka  Metal  Braces

Built‑to‑Last Braces, Just for Your Smile

Metal braces from Ovation  Orthodontics deliver the most trusted, efficient way to move teeth and perfect your bite. Our slim, modern brackets work around the clock, giving kids, teens, and adults a straight, healthy smile without the need for constant repairs or sticker shock.

How Today’s Metal Braces Work Their Magic

Metal braces at our Minnetonka, Eden Prairie, Chaska, and Waconia offices utilize tiny stainless-steel brackets bonded to each tooth and connected by a super-flexible archwire. That wire acts like a smart guide rail, applying gentle, steady pressure that moves teeth into better alignment week after week.

Thanks to 3D scanning and heat-activated wires, modern metal braces are slimmer, smoother, and far more comfortable than the bulky hardware you may remember. Fewer pokes, shorter appointments, and faster tooth movement mean you spend less time in the chair and more time enjoying life.

WildSmiles Braces

Shape Up Your Child’s Smile

Tough treatment doesn’t have to look tough. WildSmiles metal braces give kids the full power of stainless‑steel brackets, only in fun shapes like stars, soccer balls, hearts, and flowers. When your child gets to “design” their braces, visits feel exciting, and confidence grows right alongside their new grin.

Make Braces Fun, Not Scary

Choosing bracket shapes turns the first appointment into a creative moment instead of a nervous one. Kids can match their braces to hobbies, favorite colors, or the next school spirit day, so they leave the chair grinning instead of worrying.

Standard Process, Custom Style

WildSmiles brackets are engineered from the same high‑grade steel (and use the same archwires) as our traditional metal braces. That means they straighten teeth just as quickly and effectively, while adding a dose of personality you won’t find with standard squares.

Motivates Great Hygiene

When kids are proud of their “cool” braces, they’re more likely to brush, floss, and avoid off‑limits snacks. Better care at home keeps appointments short and helps treatment finish on schedule, win‑win for parents and patients.

Built‑in Benefits

Metal braces at Ovation Orthodontics pair time‑tested strength with today’s slimmer, smoother hardware, so you get reliable results, less hassle, and a smile that shines for life.

Durable by Design

Stainless‑steel brackets and heat‑activated archwires shrug off daily wear, sports snacks, and teenage energy without bending or breaking. Fewer emergencies mean your treatment stays on schedule.

Efficient on Your Calendar

Modern wires deliver steady, light forces that hold their power longer, so adjustments are quick and spaced farther apart. Translation: more time at school, work, or play and less time in the chair.

Comfortable From Day One

Low‑profile brackets feature rounded edges and a polished finish that glide past cheeks and lips. Most patients report minimal rubbing and an easy transition after each appointment.

Affordable for Families

Metal braces remain the most budget‑friendly straightening option. Combine their lower price point with our in‑house, zero‑interest financing, and you have a plan that protects both your smile and your wallet.

Reliable for Complex Moves

From deep overbites to severe crowding, metal braces can correct bite problems that clear aligners sometimes can’t tackle alone. Their “all‑terrain” versatility gives every mouth a clear path to healthy alignment.

Attached, Never Misplaced

Because brackets stay bonded to your teeth, there’s nothing to lose, forget, or throw away at lunch. You focus on living life. Your braces focus on perfecting your grin.
