Metal Braces
When people hear the word braces, metal braces are what come to mind. Since they’re the most common type of braces, you’re probably more used to seeing that type. Metal braces high-grade stainless steel and have become more comfortable than they have been in the past. They straighten your teeth using metal brackets and archwires. You also have the option of adding colorful elastics for a more unique, fun smile.

Clear Braces or Ceramic Braces
Because clear braces are made of clear plastic materials, they’re less noticeable than metal braces. Older teenagers and adults are the majority of these patients. Clear braces are barely perceptible, and often why they are chosen instead of metal braces. You will have to be more diligent with oral hygiene because they are larger and are more delicate than metal braces. This is why clear braces typically are placed on the upper front teeth than the lower teeth.

Clear Aligners
Clear aligners are a popular option because they are invisible and removable. They allow you to eat and drink what you want, and you will have an easier time brushing and flossing. What they are: a series of nearly invisible, easily removable, comfortable acrylic trays that align your teeth. With this option, you are not dealing with brackets or wires that need to be fixed or the discomfort people experience with traditional braces.
