TRADITIONAL BRACES

Traditional braces are the most common type, and those used most often when treating children. They consist of a small bracket that is glued to the front of each tooth. Often the molars are adjusted with a band that encircles the tooth.

The brackets are strong and come in a variety of materials including metal, ceramic (clear), and gold. They can be decorated with colorful ligatures (the small bands that surround each bracket) to suit your individual style.

Ceramic braces are quite popular with those patients that are concerned about the appearance of traditional braces. The brackets are clear and thus much less noticeable than metal or gold.

Gold braces consist of stainless steel brackets with a 24 karat gold coating. In addition to the added strength and durability of gold, some patients prefer the aesthetic look of gold to that of metal or ceramic.

Your orthodontist can help to determine which type of material will best suit your cosmetic and dental needs.
