Clear Advantages

Subtle Yet Stylish

The primary benefit of clear braces from ATX Braces is their ability to blend in. The clear or tooth-colored ceramic brackets are far less visible than traditional metal braces.

Effective Orthodontic Solution

Despite their discreet appearance, clear braces are just as effective as traditional metal braces in treating many orthodontic issues. This includes correcting crooked teeth, overcrowding, gaps, and various bite problems, ensuring functional and aesthetic improvements.

Confidence During Treatment

Many patients at ATX Braces experience a boost in self-confidence with clear braces. Their less noticeable nature allows for a more comfortable and confident orthodontic journey.

Designed for Comfort

Clear braces are often found to be more comfortable than their metal counterparts. The smooth ceramic brackets are less likely to cause irritation inside the mouth, offering a more pleasant experience throughout the treatment.

Versatile for Every Smile

While particularly popular among adults and teens, clear braces are an excellent choice for patients of all ages who seek lasting results without drawing attention.

Consistent & Reliable Results

Like traditional braces, clear braces provide predictable and consistent results in teeth straightening.

Personalized Aesthetic Options

Specific clear braces systems offer customization options, such as the color of the bands. Customization gives you more control over your appearance during treatment. Plus, it adds a personal touch to the orthodontic process.

How Do Clear Braces Work?

Clear braces at ATX Braces function similarly to traditional metal braces, with the advantage of being far less noticeable. How? We use clear or tooth-colored brackets. Here's a closer look at how they straighten your teeth:

Archwire

A clear or tooth-colored archwire connects these translucent brackets. This wire plays a crucial role, applying the necessary pressure to gently guide your teeth into their ideal positions throughout your treatment without being noticeable.

Brackets

Clear braces utilize brackets made from ceramic or other transparent materials, offering a discreet alternative to traditional metal brackets.

Pressure & Movement

The transparent braces system exerts steady, gentle pressure on your teeth. Dr. Brenner and Dr. Konstantoni meticulously map out and adjust the pressure over time according to your personalized treatment plan.

Duration

The duration of your treatment with clear braces varies based on individual needs and the complexity of your case. Generally, it's comparable to the timeframe for traditional metal braces.

Discreet Design

Clear braces are less visible compared to traditional metal braces, which makes them an ideal choice for adults and older teens who prioritize a more subtle look during their orthodontic treatment.

Care & Upkeep

Maintaining excellent oral hygiene is essential with clear braces. To prevent staining and maintain their inconspicuous appearance, it's necessary to adhere to your regular brushing and flossing regimen.

Am I a Candidate for Clear Braces?

Clear braces could be the best choice if you're considering teeth straightening with a more subtle approach than traditional metal braces. At ATX Braces, clear braces are particularly effective for adjustments that don't require extensive movement or significant bite alterations.

Committing to clear braces involves adhering to specific care guidelines set by our team, including maintaining regular appointments and following oral health practices diligently.

Opting for clear braces can significantly enhance your smile’s “wow” factor! They offer a discreet way to align your teeth, boosting your confidence throughout your treatment.

How Much Do Clear Braces Cost?

When considering clear braces at ATX Braces, it's important to note that they typically come with a slightly higher price tag than traditional metal braces. A few factors contribute to this cost difference.

Firstly, clear braces often utilize ceramic materials, which are pricier than their metal counterparts. These ceramic braces are skillfully designed to blend in with your natural teeth, offering a discreet appearance.

Another consideration is the duration of treatment with clear braces. Because adjustments made during each visit must be more delicate to protect the ceramic brackets, treatment time may be extended.

Maintaining Your Clear Edge

Maintaining the pristine condition of clear braces demands more care than traditional metal braces. To ensure your clear braces stay as invisible as they were intended, we've compiled some essential maintenance tips:

Brushing Basics

Clear braces require diligent oral hygiene. We suggest brushing your teeth at least twice daily with a soft-bristled toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste. Pay special attention to the areas around your brackets to prevent staining.

Focused Flossing and Rinsing

Flossing is vital to removing plaque and food particles between teeth and braces. Utilize tools like floss threaders or orthodontic flossers to navigate around wires and brackets effectively.

Incorporating a fluoride mouthwash into your routine can strengthen your teeth and reduce the risk of cavities.

Dietary Considerations

To preserve the aesthetic appeal of your clear braces, be mindful of consuming foods and drinks that can cause staining, such as coffee, tea, red wine, and certain fruits. Crunchy and sticky foods should also be avoided as they can damage your braces.
