Braces in Las Vegas
Traditional Braces
Braces Las Vegas
At Sahara Dental Center, we offer traditional braces for patients of all ages, from children and teens to adults looking to improve their smile. Dr. Shiva Keshmiri has been helping Las Vegas families achieve straighter, healthier smiles since 1996, using modern materials and proven techniques that deliver precise, lasting results.
Whether you are dealing with crowding, spacing, overbite, underbite, or crooked teeth, braces remain one of the most reliable solutions available. We take the time to understand your goals, explain your options honestly, and build a treatment plan designed around your timeline and budget.
How Traditional Braces Work
Braces use a system of brackets bonded to your teeth and connected by archwires that apply gentle, continuous pressure to gradually shift your teeth into proper alignment. We schedule regular adjustment appointments every 4 to 6 weeks to keep your progress on track. Most patients complete treatment in 12 to 24 months depending on their case.
