METALLIC BRACES

Metallic braces are made up of a combination of brackets and wires that are attached to the teeth. They work by gently adjusting the teeth into the correct position over time. Metallic braces are the most common type of braces and are used to treat a range of issues, including overcrowded teeth, gaps between teeth, and crooked teeth. Metallic braces are more noticeable than other types of braces, but they are generally more affordable and can be an effective way to straighten your smile.

CERAMIC BRACES

Ceramic braces are similar to traditional braces, but they are made of a translucent material that blends in with the natural color of your teeth, making them less noticeable. They are also smaller and smoother, making them more comfortable. Ceramic braces can be used to treat a variety of issues, including overcrowded teeth, gaps between teeth, and crooked teeth. They also have fewer food restrictions than traditional braces.

LINGUAL BRACES

Lingual braces are a type of braces that are placed on the back of the teeth, making them nearly invisible. They are custom-made for each patient and can treat a wide range of issues, including overcrowded teeth, gaps between teeth, and crooked teeth. Lingual braces are more expensive than other types of braces, but they offer the advantage of being undetectable.

Can I get Invisalign instead of braces?

PRO TEETH WHITENING

Professional teeth whitening treatments use special bleaching gels that are much stronger than the kinds of products you can purchase over-the-counter. Your dentist will be able to recommend a specific type of product for your teeth and provide you with custom-fitted trays for optimal results. The process usually takes multiple visits, with each visit lasting around an hour. During the procedure, your dentist will apply the product to your teeth, then use a specialized UV light or laser to activate the bleaching gel. After the treatment, you’ll have noticeably whiter teeth!

TEETH STRAIGHTENING

Teeth straightening at a dental clinic typically involves getting fitted for an orthodontic device such as braces or aligners. The process may involve several appointments, with each appointment lasting around an hour. During each appointment, your dentist will take x-rays and impressions of your teeth to help create a customized treatment plan. Your dentist will also discuss the cost of the procedure, the timeline of the treatment, and any potential risks associated with the treatment. Once you’ve gone through the initial consultation and agreed to the treatment, the dentist can start the process of straightening your teeth.

DENTAL VENEERS

Dental veneers are thin shells made of porcelain or composite material that are placed over the front surfaces of your teeth to improve their appearance. This procedure involves little to no downtime and can help you achieve a more even, whiter smile. Your dentist can tell you more about this procedure and the types of veneers available and recommend which type is best for you.
