Duccio di Buoninsegna (Italian: [ËduttÊo di ËbwÉninËseÉ²É²a]; c. 1255â1260 â c. 1318â1319) was an Italian painter active in Siena, Tuscany, in the late 13th and early 14th centuries. He was hired throughout his life to complete many important works in government and religious buildings around Italy. Duccio is credited with creating the painting styles of Trecento and the Sienese school, and also contributed significantly to the Sienese Gothic style.

Types of Braces. Braces fix alignment issues by applying a firm pressure on the teeth, which ultimately shifts them into a straighter position. There are several options when deciding what type of braces use on a child, but typically, kids need braces with wires and rubber bands. The wires aid in shifting the teeth into a straighter position and the rubber bands fix alignment problems. Some kids may need other orthodontic devices as well for optimal results.
