What To Know About Metal Braces & Ceramic Braces?

Your smile is unique, and the treatment we use to correct it should be, too. Gone are the days when your only option was a mouth full of metal. Today, you can opt for traditional braces or a more discreet option such as ceramic braces or Invisalign.

  1. Metal braces – Harrisonburg Metal braces are still a commonly used treatment option for two very important reasons – they are effective and efficient. They utilize metal brackets adhered to the teeth and a metal archwire to guide the teeth. Today’s metal braces are more high-tech than ever before, offering sleeker brackets and heat-activated archwires.
  2. Ceramic braces – Harrisonburg Ceramic braces are similar to traditional braces, but they use tooth-colored brackets to hold the archwire in place. This makes them less noticeable than metal braces. They are as efficient as metal braces but offer a more discrete treatment. You do need to pay close attention to brushing and flossing to avoid staining.
  3. Invisalign – Harrisonburg Invisalign treatment offers the highest level of discretion of these options. The treatment consists of a series of clear, removable aligners that fit snugly over the teeth. Each set is designed to achieve a certain tooth movement. Patients love that they are almost invisible, and since they are removable you don’t have to make changes to your diet.
