Moorestown Metal Braces
Straighten Any Smile With Proven Power
Metal braces at McHugh Orthodontics in Moorestown give you and your child reliable tooth-moving force in a lighter, smoother design than ever before.
Dr. Hellen McHugh bonds low-profile stainless-steel brackets that work around the clock, so every visit shows real progress toward a confident, comfortable bite.
Traditional Brackets, Straight Smiles in Moorestown
Today’s metal braces keep the strength you expect while losing the bulk you remember. Slim stainless-steel brackets pair with heat-activated memory wires that apply steady, gentle pressure, speeding up movement and trimming soreness.
If you like to show personality, colored elastics let you match your team or outfit; if not, classic silver keeps things clean and simple.
Because metal braces stay fixed to your teeth, they never get misplaced or forgotten. That 24/7 consistency makes them the go-to choice for active kids, busy teens, and adults who want dependable results without the need for removable trays.
How Metal Braces Work
After a quick 3D scan, Dr. McHugh maps each tooth’s ideal landing spot. She bonds a bracket to every tooth and threads a super-elastic archwire through them. Body heat activates the wire, guiding teeth toward their targets.
Check-ups every six to eight weeks keep the wire fresh and your timeline on track. Most patients finish in 12 to 24 months, even for complex bites.

Timeless Benefits
At McHugh Orthodontics, you’ll enjoy stronger brackets, smoother edges, and shorter chair time.
Durable Time & Time Again
High-grade stainless steel withstands daily wear, sports snacks, and teenage energy. Fewer broken brackets mean fewer surprise visits and a smoother journey from start to finish.
Fewer Office Visits
Heat-activated wires hold their shape longer, so you need fewer adjustments. Less time in the chair means more time for school, work, and weekend fun.
Always Comfortable
Smaller, rounded brackets reduce soreness in the lips and cheeks. Most patients switch to normal eating and speaking within days.
Affordable for Everyone
Metal braces are the most budget-friendly fixed option, often costing less than clear aligners or ceramic brackets. Flexible, zero-interest plans keep payments predictable and consistent.
Reliable Tooth Control
From crowding to gaps, rotations to deep bites, metal braces handle tough movements that other systems can’t match, so every case can finish on schedule.
Never Misplaced
Because brackets stay bonded, you’ll never dig in couch cushions for a lost aligner or worry about wear hours. The hardware does its job 24/7 while you live life.
