Metal Braces

Metal braces are still the most common type of braces today. Today’s braces are smaller, flatter, and more comfortable than ever before and are made of high-grade metal alloys. With metal braces, you can also choose to add colored elastics (rubber bands) for a more unique and colorful look. Patients of all ages choose metal braces to help them achieve straight, beautiful smiles.

Ceramic Braces

Having braces doesn’t necessarily require highly noticeable metal brackets and wire. In fact, many of today’s braces are made of clear ceramic, making them more attractive and less visible on your teeth compared to metal braces. They are often chosen by teenagers and adults who are concerned about the appearance of traditional metal braces. They’re a more discreet option than metal braces, making them a popular choice for those who want a low-key way to perfect their smile. By talking to your orthodontist, you can decide if clear or ceramic braces are the right treatment for you. Your orthodontist can provide answers to your questions and extra information explaining the benefits of each treatment. If you would like to learn more about clear, ceramic braces, and all of the options available to you, please contact our practice and schedule an appointment today.
