Types of Braces

Metal Braces

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. Once placed, braces put gentle, constant energy on your teeth, which guides the teeth into their proper position and alignment.

 
 

Clear (Ceramic) Braces

As you replace each aligner with the next in the series, your teeth will move until they have straightened to their final positions. You'll visit us about once every six-to-eight weeks to ensure that your treatment is progressing as planned.
