Fixed braces for children are much more than just a way to achieve straight teeth.

We know that the idea of fixed braces can raise questions at first. Parents want to understand when the right time is, how the treatment works, and what their child can expect. This is exactly where our team comes in—with clear guidance, child-friendly communication, and safe, modern treatment that brings joy instead of fear.

Fixed braces for adults are always a good option when teeth are misaligned, the bite doesn’t close properly, or the temporomandibular joints are overloaded. However, many adults also choose treatment for aesthetic reasons—for example, to improve their smile and regain their self-confidence. Modern orthodontics can now correct nearly any misalignment of the teeth—gently, discreetly, and with long-lasting results.

At Skyline Orthodontics in Frankfurt am Main, located in the heart of the Europaviertel on Europa-Allee, we provide care for adult patients using state-of-the-art 3D diagnostics, extensive experience, and customized treatment systems.

Adults, in particular, place great importance on ensuring that their orthodontic treatment fits seamlessly into their professional and personal lives. That’s why at Skyline Orthodontics, we focus on a combination of precision, discretion, and comfort. Dr. Dominik Krüger and PD Dr. Babak Sayahpour combine scientific expertise with a clear commitment to aesthetics—for a result that not only looks good but also feels good.

Before fixed braces are fitted for adults, Skyline Orthodontics in Frankfurt am Main conducts a comprehensive analysis of the position of the teeth and jaws. We combine digital scanning techniques with precise treatment planning. This allows you to see, even before treatment begins, how the alignment of your teeth will change step by step and what the planned result will look like.

When braces are fitted, small brackets are bonded to the teeth and connected by thin wires. These wires apply gentle, targeted pressure and move the teeth in a controlled manner into their ideal position. The entire procedure is painless and usually takes less than an hour.

During treatment, regular follow-up appointments take place at our practice on Europa-Allee in Frankfurt’s Europaviertel—right next to Skyline Plaza Frankfurt. At these appointments, we monitor your treatment progress, change the archwires, and adjust your braces as needed. Many of our patients appreciate the predictable schedule, the central location, and the high level of comfort offered by our modern practice facilities.

Dr. Dominik Krüger, a specialist in orthodontics, emphasizes:

“Adults want to understand what’s happening—precisely and transparently. We place a high value on clear communication and straightforward steps. This builds trust, motivation, and the satisfying feeling of actively contributing to one’s own change.”

Not all fixed braces for adults are the same—modern systems differ significantly in design, comfort, effectiveness, and aesthetics. At Skyline Orthodontics in Frankfurt am Main, we provide comprehensive advice on all your options and work with you to choose the option that best suits your needs and lifestyle.

You can choose from traditional metal braces, discreet ceramic braces, self-ligating systems that reduce pressure, and the nearly invisible lingual technique, in which the braces are attached to the inside of the teeth. Each of these solutions has its own specific advantages—whether it’s maximum efficiency, a discreet appearance, or the highest level of comfort.

The duration of treatment with fixed braces for adults depends on the individual’s initial condition and the desired outcome. In most cases, the active treatment phase lasts between twelve and twenty-four months. This is followed by a retention phase, during which the results are stabilized—usually with a fine retainer wire or a removable retainer that permanently maintains the new tooth position.

In the first few days after the braces are fitted, you may experience a slight feeling of pressure or tightness—a sign that your teeth are beginning to move. This phase usually subsides quickly. Soft foods, cool water, and the proper care tips you’ll receive at our office will help you get used to your braces quickly.

In everyday life, fixed braces can be easily incorporated into an adult’s routine—whether at work, during sports, or in leisure time. The modern bracket systems we use at Skyline Orthodontics in Frankfurt am Main, located right next to Skyline Plaza in the Europaviertel, are comfortable, easy to care for, and discreet. Many of our patients see visible progress after just a few months—a motivating moment that makes the journey to a new smile especially enjoyable.

The placement of fixed braces for adults is usually completely painless. In the first few days after placement or after minor adjustments, you may feel a slight pressure—a normal sign that your teeth are beginning to move and that the treatment is working.

Dr. Dominik Krüger, a specialist in orthodontics, explains:

"A slight feeling of tension indicates that the tooth is moving—this is completely harmless. In most cases, the tissue adjusts within a few days. Cooling the area, eating soft foods, and practicing careful oral hygiene can help during this brief adjustment period."

Our experience at Skyline Orthodontics in Frankfurt am Main, located right next to Skyline Plaza in the Europaviertel, shows that after just a few days, most patients come to see their braces as a normal part of their lives. With state-of-the-art technology, precise adjustments, and personalized care, we ensure that treatment is as comfortable as possible—from the first appointment to the perfect result.

Fixed braces for adults require a little more attention during daily oral care, but with the right routine, they can be easily incorporated into your daily life. It’s important to brush your teeth thoroughly—in the morning and at night, and ideally after meals. Small interdental brushes or special dental floss designed for braces are particularly effective, as they allow you to clean the areas around the brackets thoroughly.

At Skyline Orthodontics in Frankfurt am Main, located right next to Skyline Plaza in the Europaviertel, we’ll show you how to care for your fixed braces easily and effectively. We provide practical tips on daily oral hygiene, suitable care products, and nutrition during your treatment.

Many of our patients report that they quickly get used to their fixed braces. With clear routines and a little patience, their gums stay healthy, their teeth stay clean—and everyday life goes on as usual.

The cost of fixed braces for adults depends on the individual’s initial condition, the duration of treatment, and the type of braces chosen. While public health insurance plans generally cover orthodontic treatment for adults only when there is a medical necessity (e.g., in cases of functional disorders with severe malocclusion), private health insurance plans or supplemental insurance policies can often cover a larger portion of the costs.

At Skyline Orthodontics in Frankfurt am Main, located right next to Skyline Plaza in the Europaviertel, we place great emphasis on transparent consultation. Before treatment begins, we draw up a detailed treatment and cost plan that clearly outlines all options—from traditional bracket systems to aesthetic alternatives such as ceramic or lingual braces. This way, you’ll know right from the start what costs to expect.

Dr. Dominik Krüger, a specialist in orthodontics, emphasizes:

“Our patients should know exactly which procedures are medically necessary, which are optional, and which are cosmetically beneficial. Transparency builds trust—and that is the foundation of every successful treatment.”
