What Types of Braces Are Available?

At Bright Orthodontics, we offer a selection of proven orthodontic treatments tailored to each patient.

Metal Braces

Metal braces are the most traditional and widely used orthodontic option due to being smaller, comfortable and effective. They are a great choice for patients of all ages and are especially effective for correcting more complex orthodontic issues.

Ceramic Braces

Ceramic braces work similarly to metal braces but use tooth-colored or clear brackets for a more subtle appearance. They are a popular option for patients who want the effectiveness of braces while maintaining a more natural look during treatment.

Invisalign Aligners

Invisalign is a modern alternative to braces that uses a series of clear, removable aligners to gradually straighten teeth. This option is ideal for patients who want flexibility, comfort, and a more discreet treatment experience while still achieving effective results.

What Is Best Between Invisalign vs Braces?

Both Invisalign and braces are effective ways to straighten teeth, but they differ in appearance, flexibility, and treatment style.

Braces:

  • Fixed to the teeth and work continuously
  • Ideal for more complex alignment or bite issues
  • No need to remove or keep track of appliances

Invisalign:

  • Nearly invisible aligners
  • Removable for eating, brushing, and flossing
  • No food restrictions and added flexibility

During your consultation, Dr. Veit will help you choose the option that best fits your goals, lifestyle, and orthodontic needs.

What Is the Best Option for Each Age?

Orthodontic treatment can be successful at any age, but certain options may be more suitable depending on the stage of development.

  • Kids and early teens: Braces are often recommended for consistent, predictable results during growth
  • Teens: May benefit from either braces or Invisalign, depending on preference and responsibility
  • Adults: Often choose Invisalign for a more discreet option, though braces remain effective for complex cases

No matter your age, there is an effective solution to help you achieve a healthy, confident smile.
