BRACES

Tried, true, and better than ever—traditional metal braces are the classic choice for straightening teeth. Made from durable stainless steel, these braces use a system of brackets and wires to gently guide teeth into alignment over time. Today’s metal braces are smaller, more comfortable, and more effective than ever before. You can even customize your look by choosing colorful rubber bands to match your personality or style at every visit!
Self-ligating braces are similar in appearance to traditional braces but use a special clip instead of elastic bands to hold the wire in place. This small difference offers big benefits—less friction, fewer appointments, and more efficient tooth movement. Available in metal or clear options, self-ligating braces are a great choice for patients looking for a lower-maintenance and more comfortable treatment experience. Many patients also notice shorter overall treatment times and easier cleaning with this advanced system.
Clear braces offer the same reliable straightening power as traditional metal braces but with a more subtle appearance. Made from tooth-colored ceramic material, they blend in naturally with your smile—making them a popular choice for teens and adults who want a more discreet option. While they function just like metal braces, clear braces are designed with aesthetics in mind, helping you feel more confident throughout your orthodontic journey.
