Types of Braces

 
 

Metal Braces

Metal braces are the most common type. They are made of high-grade stainless steel. Today's metal braces are smaller, more comfortable and more attractive.

Ceramic/Clear Braces

Ceramic braces are made of translucent (clear) material. They are most popular with adult patients, due to their cosmetic appeal.

Gold Braces

Gold braces are stainless steel braces coated with gold and are popular with patients of all ages.

Invisalign®

The Invisalign® System is a series of clear overlay templates—called aligners—that have been generated by computer simulation to gradually move the teeth. This system is available to adult and teenage patients with certain orthodontic bite problems. Dr. Harris and Dr. Steen are Invisalign Certified Orthodontists.
