Types of Braces We Use

Today, patients have more options than ever when it comes to braces. The metal braces we use are the most common type. Today’s modern metal braces are made of high-grade stainless steel and are smaller, more comfortable and more attractive than metal braces used several years ago.

Clear Braces

The clear braces we use are made of a translucent material. These clear braces are most popular among adult patients due to their cosmetic appeal. The only drawback to ceramic braces is that they are more fragile and the elastic ties can become discolored between orthodontic visits.

Invisalign

The Invisalign System we use is a series of removable, clear aligners, which have been generated by computer simulation to gradually move teeth. This system is available to adult patients with certain bite problems. The Invisalign aligners can be removed when eating, brushing and flossing for a high level of convenience. When you are wearing Invisalign, many people will not even notice that you are having your teeth straightened, as this system is very discreet.

Invisalign Teen

We also offer Invisalign Teen. This system combines the benefits of the Invisalign System with added features such as a Blue Dot Wear indicator that fades when the aligner needs to be changed. Invisalign Teen is designed to help teenagers maintain their self-confidence and accommodate their active lifestyles while they are having their teeth straightened.
