How Do Clear/Ceramic Braces Work?

Similar to traditional metal braces, those made of clear or ceramic materials straighten teeth in the same way yet offer a less noticeable aesthetic. Plus, our Chic brackets are smaller and more comfortable to wear, reducing soft oral tissue irritation.

Over time, the braces will precisely shift teeth into proper alignment so that you or your child achieves the desired results, all without attracting unwanted attention.

The Unique Benefits of Ceramic Braces

Ceramic braces offer many unique benefits, such as:

  • Discreet Appearance – The material blends in with the patient’s natural tooth color, so they are less obvious.
  • Enhanced Comfort – Ceramic (Chic) brackets are smaller and smoother, so the gums, cheeks, tongue, and lips do not become irritated.
  • Highly Effective – These orthodontic appliances produce the same consistent results as traditional metal braces.
  • Customizable – The patient can choose to receive tooth-colored or clear archwires or ligatures, creating a more subtle appearance.
  • Allergy-Free – Patients who are allergic to metal can pursue orthodontic treatment with ceramic/clear braces, as they are less likely to cause a reaction.

Who is a Good Candidate for Clear/Ceramic Braces?

Determining whether you or your child is a good candidate for clear/ceramic braces requires a scheduled consultation with Dr. Paul. A patient may be considered a good candidate if:

  • They have mild to moderate alignment issues (overcrowding, gaps, crooked teeth)
  • They have orthodontic problems that are too complex for clear aligners
  • They want a more discreet orthodontic treatment option
  • They have good oral hygiene and no existing signs of decay or gum disease
  • They are committed to wearing a custom athletic mouthguard if they play sports
  • Their smile consists primarily of permanent teeth
