Braces
Metallic Braces
Traditional 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, they provide precision prescriptions in
all three planes space.
Titanium Braces
Titanium braces are similar to traditional metal braces in many
ways. They are used for patients who have an allergy to nickel.
These braces are imported from Europe and are more costly but
offer a treatment alternative for those with this special allergy.
Ceramic Braces
Ceramic braces are made of clear and opaque materials and are
therefore less visible on your teeth than metal braces.
Invisalign®-Like (Clear) Orthodontic Appliances
Clear appliances use a series of invisible, removable, and
comfortable aligners to straighten the teeth. There is usually a
series of appliances which slowly move the teeth. This system is
limited for many of the patients based on the individual
orthodontic needs.
New appliances and rubber bands allow patients to color
customize there braces if so desired.
