Metal Braces
Metal braces are the most common type. They are made of high-grade stainless steel. Today's metal braces are smaller, more comfortable, and more attractive. Patients of all ages enjoy choosing colors at each visit. See the
Style Your Smile page to help you choose your colors today!
Ceramic (or Clear) Braces
Ceramic braces are made of translucent (clear) material. They are most popular with adult patients, due to their cosmetic appeal. The only drawback to ceramic brackets is that the clear elastic ties can discolor between orthodontic visits. Just stop by anytime and we will be happy to change them for you!
Invisalign
The Invisalign System is a series of clear retainers—called aligners—that have been generated by computer simulation to gradually move the teeth. The aligners are removable thus improving the patient’s comfort as well as their oral hygiene. This system is available to older teenagers and adult patients with certain orthodontic problems. Ask us if you are a candidate for the Invisalign system!
