Clear & Ceramic Braces

Clear ceramic braces are a practical alternative to traditional braces, offering the same smile-enhancing benefits without the noticeable look of metal.

Just like traditional braces, clear ceramic braces feature two important components: clear or tooth-colored brackets which are attached to each tooth, and wires that connect the brackets together.  These clear ceramic braces blend with the color of each patient’s tooth enamel, giving them a more natural and aesthetically pleasing look.

Care for ceramic braces is the same as with traditional braces:

  • Elastics must be worn at all times and changed daily in order to maintain a consistent force on the teeth.
  • Hard, sticky, chewy or crunchy foods must be avoided during treatment time.
  • Soreness is normal for several days following the placement of new braces and adjustment appointments. Over-the-counter pain medication can help to relieve soreness.
  • Braces and wires should be brushed and flossed after each meal.
  • Special mouth guards should be worn during sports play.
  • If you feel any sharp pain or a sore develops on the soft tissues of your mouth, call us so that we can remedy the situation as soon as possible.

The most advanced technologies to provide you with the best results. Come visit us so that we can get started on creating the smile you always dreamed of.
