Traditional braces are incredibly effective for aligning teeth and jaws. We offer both classic metal braces and discreet ceramic braces to fit your needs.
What Modern Braces Offer You
Today's braces are better than ever! They can correct many issues, from simple to complex. Their strength, durability, and affordability make them a top choice year after year.
- Traditional Metal Braces
- Made from high-grade stainless steel, using metal brackets and wires.
- Often work faster to close gaps and align teeth, potentially shortening treatment time.
- A cost-effective option.
- More comfortable than before, and you can even personalize them with colored elastics (or clear/tooth-colored for a subtle look!).
- Ceramic Braces
- Work just like metal braces, but use clear ceramic brackets.
- A subtle choice, popular with older teens and adults.
- Often used on upper front teeth.
- Note: Brackets are larger and more brittle than metal, so they're usually not recommended for younger patients.
Your Braces Treatment Journey with Us
Before we place your braces, our team gathers digital X-rays, photos, and a model of your mouth. Dr. Mark Clauss uses this information to design a customized treatment plan just for you. This plan guides how your brackets are placed.
Wires are then inserted to apply precise pressure to your teeth. This gentle, constant pressure causes minor changes in the bone around your teeth's roots, allowing them to slowly move into their correct positions.
Important: Because your teeth naturally want to return to their original spots, you'll need to wear a retainer after your braces come off. This crucial step prevents drifting and keeps your new smile perfectly aligned!
