What Are Clear Braces?
Clear braces, also called ceramic braces, work just like metal braces but with a discreet twist. The brackets are made from a translucent, tooth colored ceramic that blends with your enamel, and they can be paired with a tooth colored wire.
Here is the key difference to know. Clear braces are fixed to your teeth and stay put, unlike removable clear aligners. If you would rather take trays out to eat and brush, take a look at Invisalign instead.
Who Is the Best Candidate for Clear Braces?
Ceramic braces are a favorite for anyone who wants results without the metal look.
Are Clear Braces as Effective?
For most cases, yes. Clear braces use the same bracket and wire system as metal, so they move teeth just as reliably. They are an excellent choice for the majority of patients.
Ceramic is a little more brittle than steel, so for certain very complex or heavy duty cases Dr. Freeman may suggest metal for extra strength. He will always give you an honest recommendation.
