Clear (Ceramic) Braces
Clear braces feature a comfortable design with a translucent, tooth-colored appearance. They offer the same reliability and effectiveness as metal braces while being far less noticeable — an excellent choice for teens and adults who want a more aesthetic option.
Key Benefits
What Are Clear Braces?
Clear braces are made from a translucent ceramic material that blends with the natural color of your teeth. Unlike metal braces, the brackets are virtually invisible from a conversational distance, making them a popular choice for adults and teens who want effective treatment without drawing attention to their orthodontic work.
Comfort and Durability
Many patients enjoy the combination of ceramic and metal because it is simultaneously attractive and sturdy. In fact, these braces are so sturdy that many doctors will recommend them to their patients who play sports. Patients are allowed to engage in most everyday activities without fear of delaying or impeding their progress.
Because they have a semi-transparent color that will not stain, patients can proceed with necessary orthodontic treatment without feeling self-conscious. In addition, clear braces' smooth, rounded shape allows for greater patient comfort throughout treatment.
Who Are Clear Braces For?
These features are designed for patients regardless of age. Clear braces are particularly popular with adults and older teens who want the proven effectiveness of braces with a more aesthetic appearance.
