Types of Braces at Alba Orthodontics

We specialize in two main types of braces: traditional metal braces and innovative clear braces, each designed to effectively straighten your teeth and improve your smile.

Why Do I Need To Wear A Retainer?

The Evolution of Metal Braces

Metal braces have been the cornerstone of orthodontic treatment for decades, and for good reason. They are incredibly effective at correcting a wide range of dental issues, from simple misalignments to complex bite problems. Over the years, advancements in technology have made metal braces more comfortable, less noticeable, and more efficient than ever before. The brackets are smaller, the wires are less conspicuous, and the overall treatment time has been reduced. This makes metal braces a reliable and cost-effective option for patients of all ages.

Effectiveness Across the Board

Metal braces have stood the test of time due to their unparalleled effectiveness in treating a variety of dental issues. Whether you have minor misalignments or more complex bite problems, metal braces are a tried-and-true solution.

Technological Advancements

The world of orthodontics has seen significant technological advancements, and metal braces have not been left behind. Today's metal braces are designed with cutting-edge technology that makes them more efficient and comfortable than their predecessors.

Smaller Brackets, Less Noticeable Wires

One of the most notable advancements is the reduction in the size of the brackets and the visibility of the wires. This makes the braces less conspicuous, allowing for a more aesthetically pleasing experience.

Comfort is Key

Gone are the days of painful adjustments and irritation. Modern metal braces are designed for maximum comfort, reducing the amount of discomfort traditionally associated with orthodontic treatment.

Reduced Treatment Time

Thanks to technological improvements, the time required to achieve desired results has been significantly reduced. This means you can enjoy your new smile sooner than you might think.

Cost-Effective Treatment

Despite the advancements, metal braces remain a cost-effective option, making them accessible for patients of all ages and budgets.

The Discreet Elegance of Clear Braces

Clear braces offer a more discreet alternative to traditional metal braces. Made from transparent materials, they blend seamlessly with your teeth, making them an excellent choice for teens and adults who are concerned about aesthetics. Clear braces are just as effective as metal braces but offer the added benefit of being less visible, allowing you to smile with confidence throughout your treatment.
