Types of Braces
. |
Metal Braces
Metal braces are the classic choice for effective, reliable orthodontic treatment. The modern design we use features smaller, low-profile brackets that are comfortable and stylish. With fun, colourful elastics to choose from, they’re a favourite for kids and teens looking to add personality to their smile journey. Ask about them at your consultation!
Ceramic Braces
Ceramic braces are a sleek and discreet option for a beautiful smile. The clear brackets blend seamlessly with your teeth, while an innovative sliding mechanism conceals the wire and keeps the braces looking clean throughout treatment. This design also reduces the need for frequent appointments, making them a convenient and aesthetic choice.
Traditional Metal Braces
Traditional metal braces are the most common type, and are more comfortable today than ever. Made of high-grade stainless steel, metal braces straighten your teeth using metal brackets and archwires. With metal braces, you have the option of adding colored elastics (rubber bands) for a more unique and colorful smile.
Esthetic White Gold Braces
Iconix stainless steel champagne colored braces truly offer the best of both worlds – the durability and the esthetics of “white” gold. Here you can see the side by side compared to our other equally popular stainless steel bracket. A unique proprietary process ensures these brackets will stay champagne for the duration of treatment, and its been a favorite of many of our patients.
