Clear braces use tooth-colored or translucent brackets that blend more naturally with your smile while providing the same type of precise orthodontic treatment as traditional braces.
At Farrow Orthodontics, Dr. Farrow will design a treatment plan around your smile, bite, and goals so you can feel confident throughout treatment and in your final result.
Clear braces are a popular choice for teens and adults who want the benefits of braces without the appearance of traditional metal brackets.
Clear braces work similarly to traditional braces. Brackets are bonded to your teeth and connected by an orthodontic wire that gently guides your smile into alignment over time.
Throughout treatment, Dr. Farrow will make adjustments and monitor your progress to ensure your teeth and bite are moving as planned.
Clear braces can be used to address many common orthodontic concerns, including:
Because every smile is different, Dr. Farrow will evaluate your teeth and bite to determine which treatment option will give you the best result.
The biggest difference is appearance.
Traditional braces use metal brackets, while clear braces use brackets designed to blend more naturally with the color of your teeth.
Both options give Dr. Farrow precise control over tooth movement and can be used to create healthy, beautifully aligned smiles.
The right choice comes down to your orthodontic needs, lifestyle, and personal preference.
If you’re looking for less noticeable orthodontic treatment, both clear braces and Invisalign may be options.
Clear braces stay in place throughout treatment, making them a great choice for patients who prefer not to keep track of removable aligners.
Invisalign uses removable clear aligners that can be taken out for meals, brushing, and flossing.
Dr. Farrow will help you compare your options and recommend the approach that best fits your smile and treatment goals.
As a board-certified orthodontist, Dr. Farrow has specialized training in tooth movement and bite correction. She carefully plans and monitors your treatment to create a smile that looks great, functions properly, and is designed to last.
