Clear Braces at Reichheld Ting Orthodontics
The Braces That Blend In
Clear ceramic braces come with all the perks of traditional braces, and they blend in with the natural color of your teeth. You can find ceramic braces at all of our offices in Acton, Billerica, Lowell, and Westford.
Having braces doesn't necessarily mean highly noticeable metal brackets and wires. At Reichheld Ting Orthodontics, we offer clear braces made from either clear or natural tooth-colored materials. These provide an attractive, less noticeable alternative to traditional braces, perfect for patients seeking a discreet option.
Why Choose Clear Braces?
Clear braces provide a fantastic alternative to metal braces, offering numerous benefits that appeal to patients of all ages:
- Aesthetic Appeal: Made from translucent materials, clear braces are designed to be less conspicuous, allowing you to feel confident during your orthodontic treatment.
- Durable and Stain-Resistant: These braces are crafted from high-quality ceramic materials that resist staining and discoloration, ensuring they remain clear throughout your treatment.
- Effective Treatment: Clear braces offer the same level of precision and effectiveness as traditional metal braces, making them a reliable option for correcting various orthodontic issues.
How Clear Braces Work
Clear braces function similarly to traditional metal braces but with a more discreet appearance. The key components include:
- Clear Brackets: These brackets are made from ceramic material that matches the color of your teeth, making them blend in seamlessly.
- Archwires: Thin wires connect the brackets and apply gentle pressure to move your teeth into the desired positions. These can be metal or tooth-colored for added discretion.
- Ligatures: Clear or tooth-colored elastics are used to secure the archwires to the brackets, maintaining the subtle look of the braces.
Clear Braces vs. Clear Aligners
- Clear Braces: Clear braces function the same way as traditional metal braces but with clear or tooth-colored brackets, making them less noticeable. They offer an equally effective treatment for various orthodontic issues, just with a more aesthetic appearance.
- Clear Aligners: Clear aligners, on the other hand, are different from clear braces. They are made from hard plastic and fit into your mouth like a mouthguard. Clear aligners are excellent for patients requiring orthodontic treatment and prefer a removable option.
Benefits of Clear Braces
- Discreet Appearance: Clear braces are designed to be less noticeable, allowing you to maintain your confidence while undergoing orthodontic treatment.
- Effective Results: Clear braces are just as effective as traditional metal braces in treating a wide range of orthodontic issues, including overcrowding, gaps, and bite problems.
- Customization: While clear braces are designed to be discreet, you can still personalize your treatment with colored elastics if desired.
