Types of Braces
Self-Ligating Braces
Self-ligating braces offer a modern take on traditional braces, using the same materials but with a unique design. Unlike traditional braces, they don't require elastics, leading to fewer appointments and less friction on teeth. Available in metal, ceramic, or clear brackets, self-ligating braces utilize a specialized clip instead of elastics, guiding teeth into alignment with minimal pressure. Requiring fewer adjustments, they provide a comfortable and efficient orthodontic experience.
Clear (Ceramic) Braces
Ceramic braces offer a discreet orthodontic option, crafted from clear materials for minimal visibility. Ideal for older teens and adults seeking aesthetic concerns, ceramic braces require meticulous oral hygiene due to their composition. Typically used on upper front teeth, they provide a subtle alternative for achieving straighter teeth with less noticeable braces.
Clear Aligners
Clear aligners are a nearly invisible option for straightening teeth, consisting of removable acrylic trays. Comfortable and discreet, they allow for easy eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing without the hassle of traditional braces. With no metal components, clear aligners provide a comfortable and convenient solution for achieving a beautiful smile.
