Types of Braces

Braces are personalized to give the best results for every individual. Nonetheless, there are a few common types of braces that are widely used in correcting misaligned teeth.
 
1.     Metal Braces
These are the traditional type of braces which brings the most efficacious results to the individual. With advancements in technology and innovation, these metal braces can now be made in smaller sizes and also give better results. The metal braces are common and preferred by many as they are cost-effective too. The metal braces can further be classified based on the rubber bands or wires that are used as a clip in between the brackets.

2.     Ceramic Braces
To reduce the visibility of braces and to make them less noticeable, the ceramic braces are used. These are just like metal braces and work the same way as well. However, the ceramic braces are made with crystals and ceramic brackets that are the same as the tooth color and texture. Even the wire in-between the brackets are customized with the tooth color to avoid visibility. Ceramic braces are comparatively expensive but they are not as clearly visible to others when you smile.
 
3.     Lingual Braces
Similar to the metal brace, the lingual braces are extensively made with metal brackets to bring the same benefits, however, without being visible to the outside world. The braces are fixed on the inner part of the teeth, making it impossible for others to see. Lingual braces are also expensive and the treatment takes longer than others.
 
4.     Invisalign
These are customized sets of clear and transparent braces that can be easily removed and replaced. These braces act as a guard to your teeth and are painless. They are more expensive and have a limitation on the benefits. Sometimes they might also take longer for the desired results.
