Any braces recommendations for allergies to nickel? I am in my early 50s and allergic to nickel. I am having the hardest time finding an orthodontist who is not just a sales person asking me to come in.

I have never had braces and would really like to improve myself the best I can in my 50s. I cannot afford to try braces with minimal nickel in it and then later have to switch to some alternative. I would rather get what I need from the very beginning, so as to avoid medical and dental concerns surrounding nickel allergies.

In the past, I was told I am not a candidate for Invisalign, so I need braces only... At least at this time.
