Clear Ceramic Braces
Discreet tooth-colored brackets that blend with your natural smile. All the effectiveness of traditional braces with a more aesthetic appearance.
What Are Clear Braces?
Ceramic braces are similar to conventional metal braces, but other people will have difficulty noticing them because they are clear! Every smooth bracket is constructed from a translucent material to blend with your teeth.
Board-certified orthodontist Dr. Saoly Benson offers clear braces if you would like the advantages of conventional metal braces but with a more attractive look. In addition to using high-quality ceramic braces, Dr. Benson uses the Smile Arc Protection approach to place the brackets precisely for a more effective treatment and a more attractive end result.
