Braces

We are pleased to offer a variety of orthodontic treatment options to kids, teens and adults.

Metal Braces

Traditional metal braces are the most common type of dental braces that are used in orthodontic treatment. When it comes to treatment options, these orthodontic workhorses have a well-established history of successful results and are incredibly efficient at correcting oral issues, whether mild or complex. The brackets in metal braces are very durable and long-lasting thanks to the materials they’re created with. A mix of stainless steel, nickel, and other metals creates strong, yet flexible, support for teeth.

Advances in technology have made today’s braces easier to maintain and much more comfortable than before. These new metal braces are smaller, more comfortable and much more efficient. The latest self-ligating braces allow for fewer appointments, less friction and less discomfort, meaning less time at the orthodontist! The benefits of modern metal braces outweigh the drawbacks as a treatment option.

Show Off Your Smile

Metal braces are now less bulky, more comfortable and more stylish than ever.
Traditional braces also let you use colorful elastics to showcase your unique personality. The elastics that fit around your brackets come in many different colors.

Ceramic (Clear) Braces

Ceramic braces are a popular alternative to traditional metal braces for those looking for more discreet orthodontic treatment. They offer the same advantages as metal braces and are a good option for patients desiring a less visible appliance. Made from durable ceramic material, these braces are nearly invisible and blend in perfectly with the wearer’s natural teeth color. They also provide improved comfort compared to traditional metal braces due to their smooth surface, which helps prevent cheek and gum irritation.

These types of braces usually require fewer adjustments than metal ones, resulting in shorter and less frequent visits to the orthodontist’s office. They function the same way as traditional metal braces and can still provide the accurate and efficient treatment of conventional braces but without metal brackets. On top of all of that, the ceramic material is more resistant to staining than its metal counterparts so you can be sure your teeth will look pristine even after treatment.

As you might expect, ceramic braces are especially popular with adults and older teens. These are perfect for someone who does not want their braces to stand out but also does not want the added responsibility that comes with clear aligners.

All in all, ceramic braces provide an excellent option for those wanting an aesthetically pleasing yet effective orthodontic solution.
