Metal Braces
Traditional metal braces are the most common type of braces and are more comfortable today than ever before. Made of high-grade stainless steel, metal braces straighten your teeth using metal brackets and archwires. With metal braces, you have the option of adding colored elastics (rubber bands) for a more unique and colorful smile!
Self-ligating braces are made from the same materials as traditional braces. However, self-ligating braces use a specialized clip in place of elastics to help the archwire guide teeth into place. The clip helps reduce the amount of friction on the wire and requires fewer adjustments because there are no elastics to replace.

Ceramic Braces
A popular option with our adult patients, ceramic or clear braces, allow for the patient to receive all the benefits of traditional braces with the added benefit of the brackets being essentially invisible to the eye. Effective, comfortable and discreet.
