Today orthodontic specialists offer more kinds of braces than ever before.
Metal Braces
Metal braces are the most commonly used braces and this system involves brackets that are glued to each tooth.
Ceramic Braces
Ceramic braces are the same size and shape as metal braces, except that they have tooth-colored or clear brackets that blend in to teeth. Some even use tooth-colored wires to be even less noticeable.
Lingual Braces
Lingual Braces are attached behind the teeth so they’re not visible when you smile. The brackets and wires are placed on the inside of teeth.
Invisalign clear braces
Invisalign consists of a series of 18 to 30 custom-made, mouth guard-like clear plastic aligners. These alignment trays are created from molds and can be removed for brushing and flossing.
Self-Ligating Braces – Damon Brace
This is a self ligating brace. In traditional braces an elastic tie is used to hold the wire in the brace. DAMON® technology reduces patient discomfort, requires less adjustment appointments during treatment. The system uses passive slide mechanism to maintain arch wires within the bracket allowing them to move freely, this reduces friction and binding. So, your teeth can move quickly and more comfortably.
