Ceramic braces offer all the effectiveness of traditional metal braces with a look that’s much more discreet. The brackets are made from a clear or tooth-colored ceramic material that blends naturally with your smile, so most people won’t even notice you’re in treatment.
Clear braces are a great fit for teens and adults who want reliable results without the look of metal. The wire can also be tooth-colored, making the whole appliance even less visible in everyday life.
One thing to keep in mind: ceramic brackets are slightly more prone to staining than metal, so it helps to avoid dark-colored foods and drinks like coffee, tea, and berries. With a little care, they stay looking clean and clear throughout your treatment.
Ask us at your consultation whether clear braces are a good fit for your smile. We’ll walk you through all your options and help you choose what works best for your goals and lifestyle.
