Traditional metal braces are the most common type of braces
and are more comfortable today than ever before. Made
of high-grade stainless steel, metal braces straighten
your teeth using metal brackets and archwires. With metal
braces, you have the option of adding colored elastics
(rubber bands) for a more unique and colorful smile.
Ceramic braces are made of clear materials and are therefore
less visible on your teeth than metal braces. For this
reason, ceramic braces are used mainly on older teenagers
and adult patients who have cosmetic concerns. While
they are visually less prominent, they do require more
attention to oral hygiene as ceramic braces are larger
and are more brittle than their metal counterparts. For
these reasons, ceramic braces tend to be used more on
upper front teeth than on lower teeth.
Invisalign uses a series of invisible,
removable, and comfortable aligners to straighten you teeth.
And, no one can tell you are wearing Invisalign because
it’s
invisible! Not only are the aligners invisible, they are
removable, so you can eat and drink what you want while
in treatment, plus brushing and flossing are less of a
hassle. The aligners are comfortable and have no metal
to cause mouth abrasions during treatment. Click
