Types of Braces

Metal Braces


The most common and recognizable braces are the stainless steel brackets. The word bracket is the same as braces. These braces are very durable and most widely used. Different colored ties may be used with these braces to enhance the orthodontic experience.


Ceramic Braces


Ceramic braces are made of clear materials and are therefore less visible on your teeth than metal braces. For this reason, ceramic braces are used mainly on older teenagers and adult patients who have cosmetic concerns.


Gold Braces


Gold plated braces are also available at our office. These braces do give a more “rich” appearance and offer a different look with the multi–colored ties.


Invisalign System



Invisalign uses a series of invisible, removable, and comfortable aligners to straighten your teeth. And, no one can tell you are wearing Invisalign because it’s invisible! Not only are the aligners invisible, they are removable, so you can eat and drink what you want while in treatment, plus brushing and flossing are less of a hassle. The Invisalign is not for everyone, the doctor will tell you if you are a good candidate for this treatment.
