Do braces have aluminum in them?

Braces are typically made of stainless steel or titanium. Some older braces may contain small amounts of aluminum, but this is becoming increasingly rare. Aluminum is a material that is commonly used in braces because it maintains its shape and strength, while also minimizing corrosion and wear. Its composition consists of a combination of steel, nickel, and small amounts of other elements like aluminum. However, nickel-free options such as stainless steel and titanium have been developed to accommodate individuals with nickel sensitivities.
