CLEAR BRACES
Clear braces are preferred by patients who don’t want to have metal braces seen by everyone they come in contact with.
- Clear braces are able to accomplish much the same thing as metal braces, only more discreetly.
- Since they’re made with a ceramic material that has been colored to match your teeth, they blend in very nicely and are difficult to detect in place.
Both teenagers and adults often prefer clear braces as an alternative to metal braces for this very reason.
The straightening action imparted by clear braces is virtually the same as that accomplished by metal braces.
- When you have clear braces as your orthodontic treatment, Dr. Sejal Kamat will attach tooth-colored brackets to your teeth.
- Then Dr. Kamat will place a wire across the brackets so they can be secured with clear elastics.
- You will then be obliged to visit orthodontist Dr. Kamat approximately every four to six weeks.
At these visits, a different set of wires, rubber bands, and other components will be installed so as to gradually straighten your teeth. The consistent pressure applied by the rubber bands, wires, etc. is sufficient to accomplish a realignment of your teeth into the proper position.
CLEAR BRACES IN OCOEE, FL
When you visit Dr. Sejal Kamat at our clinic in Ocoee, FL, we will:
- thoroughly examine your mouth to determine exactly what’s necessary to achieve proper realignment of your teeth
- discuss some options with you which might be available, based on repositioning requirements, your personal preferences, and what your insurance will cover
Clear braces are very effective at accomplishing any desired realignment, and they have the added appeal of being very discreet. Clear braces should not be confused with clear aligners, which are a special class of orthodontic devices that include Invisalign.
Clear aligners do not make use of wires or brackets, and simply involve having plastic aligners locked in the place in your mouth for two weeks at a time.
The difference between metal braces, clear braces, and clear aligners will definitely include:
- the cost of each of these approaches
- the visibility of each approach
- the effectiveness of each approach will also be slightly different between these methods
To find out which one would be most appropriate in your case, contact us today at our dental clinic in Ocoee, FL.
