Our orthodontist and team offer clear braces as a more discreet alternative to a traditional braces treatment. Clear braces work to straighten your teeth the same way that metal braces do — by applying gentle force to gradually move your teeth into their proper positions. Unlike metal braces, however, they are designed to blend in with your teeth to give you a more aesthetic appearance during treatment. This is typically done by making the brackets from a tooth-colored material, such as porcelain. Aside from the aesthetic benefit of clear braces, which allows you to enjoy a more natural appearance, the brackets of clear braces are generally smaller and smoother than metal brackets, making it a more comfortable treatment.
Clear braces are a great option for anyone looking to improve their smile. Whether you are a teenager looking to maintain a more natural smile or an adult seeking ways to maintain a professional appearance while straightening your teeth, clear braces can help you! Beyond improving your smile, clear braces will also help improve your oral health, aligning your teeth to make them easier to keep healthy and lowering your risk of cavities, gum disease and other problems.
