Our choice of Orthodontic Appliances
There are a variety of orthodontic appliances, including braces, that can be used to correct your bite. You may not need all or these appliances, and your orthodontist will inform you which appliance is best suited for your case. During your initial consultation, our orthodontist will tell you if braces, clear braces, or Invisalign is the best option for your case. We will discuss any additional appliances and how they are used. Make sure you ask questions during you consult to fully understand the timing and uses of each appliance.
Metal Braces
Traditional metal braces, made of stainless steel, are the most common. The braces and wires straighten your teeth…colors are optional.

Ceramic Braces
Ceramic braces are made of clear materials, which make them less noticeable than metal braces. Clear brackets are great options for adolescents and adults.

Invisalign
This clear option is perfect for teens and adults. The ability to remove the aligners to eat makes brushing and flossing much easier than braces. Plus, no braces or wires equals shorter appointments and less visits.

Spacers
We use spacers before starting treatment. This provides space between the molars before fitting bands for appliances and starting braces.
