Today there are many different types of orthodontic appliances. Many of which are very esthetic.

Braces used to be offered in either "metal" or "metal". Now, braces can be made of plastic or porcelain. These braces can match virtually any tooth color and will blend in with your natural smile.

Often people will not even notice these types of braces until they are told you are wearing them!

Are you interested in having the perfect smile, but don't want to be seen as a "metal mouth"?

Invisalign is a great solution for adults who do not want the stigma of wearing metal braces.

Invisalign is a series of removable plastic aligners that are nearly invisible. These aligners can straighten teeth slowly over time and can achieve a very nice result.

Usually, a new set of aligners is used every two weeks until the desired result is achieved.

Orthodontic appliances or "Braces" are not what they used to be. Orthodontic patients now have the option to make their appliances as "clear" as they would like. Most orthodontists provide tooth colored braces and wires that match your teeth. Also, most orthodontists now offer Invisalign to straighten teeth without braces.
