Clear Braces

Ceramic braces that are clear or tooth-colored are a good option for patients who are concerned with the visibility of their braces. Adult orthodontics, for example, frequently utilizes a less noticeable type of braces such as ceramic brackets and clear braces.

Invisalign orthondontics makes use of a highly specialized aligner system that is free from the typical constraints of metal braces, but similarly moves teeth to their desired position through controlled and steady force on the teeth. Unlike metal braces, clear braces such as Invisalign braces are designed to be nearly invisible. At different stages in Invisalign application, specific teeth are allowed to move for certain amounts of time. It is this varying pressure and time that renders an aesthetically pleasing smile.

Given the advanced technology, typically Invisalign braces cost more than conventional metal braces. Although, treating mild to moderate malocclusion

with Invisalign orthodontics is comparable in price to traditional braces.
