Natick, Framingham, & Wellesley Metal Braces

The Classic Treatment with Modern Comfort

Metal braces at Vumback Orthodontics deliver rock‑solid results with today’s smaller, smoother brackets. Dr. Matthew Vumback pairs classic strength with digital planning, guiding even complex bites into perfect alignment while keeping visits short and progress clear.

How Modern Metal Braces Work in Natick

Today’s metal braces use slim stainless‑steel brackets bonded to each tooth. A lightweight archwire threads through the brackets, applying steady, gentle pressure that moves teeth into position over time. Thanks to 3D scanning and precise placement, Dr. Vumback maps every shift before placing the first wire, ensuring treatment runs smoothly from day one.

Advances in bracket design mean fewer sharp edges, lower profiles, and options like self‑ligating clips that reduce the need for elastic ties. The result is a durable system that corrects crowding, gaps, and bite issues with fewer adjustments and less chair time at our Natick office.

Modern Braces, Timeless Strength

Metal braces have been the gold standard for decades, and the newest designs make them stronger, faster, and more comfortable than ever.

Durable Strength

High-grade stainless steel withstands daily wear, sports, and teenage habits without bending or breaking. Fewer emergencies keep treatment on schedule and parents off the phone.

Fewer Office Visits

Digital planning allows Dr. Vumback to fine-tune tooth movement before your braces are even fitted. Because each adjustment is precisely mapped, visits stay short and the time between check‑ups can stretch farther. Good news for packed school and work calendars!

More Comfortable

Smaller, rounded brackets reduce cheek and lip irritation. Most patients feel only mild pressure after adjustments, then forget the hardware is there.

Budget Friendly

Metal braces remain the most cost‑effective way to straighten teeth. Clear pricing, in‑house payment plans, and the long‑term health savings of a straight smile make them a smart investment.

Reliable Alignment

From simple gaps to complex bite corrections, metal braces give Dr. Vumback full control over tooth movement. Each adjustment brings your smile closer to a stable, balanced finish.

Worry‑Free Wear

Braces stay fixed to your teeth, so there is nothing to misplace, toss out with a napkin, or forget at home. Just brush, floss, and let the hardware do the heavy lifting.
