Ceramic braces

We understand that some patients want the effectiveness of traditional braces but with a more subtle look. That’s where ceramic braces come in. This popular orthodontic option blends in with your natural tooth colour, offering a discreet and efficient way to straighten your smile.

Ceramic braces

What are ceramic braces?

Ceramic braces work in the same way as metal braces. The key difference lies in the materials: instead of metal brackets, ceramic braces use tooth-coloured or clear brackets that are far less noticeable.
The brackets are bonded to the teeth and connected by a wire, which can also be tooth-coloured to enhance the discretion of your treatment. This means both your brackets and your archwire will blend in beautifully with your smile.

The benefits of ceramic braces

Discreet appearance:

Ceramic brackets are made from clear or tooth-coloured materials that blend in with your smile, making them much less visible than metal braces.

Proven effectiveness:

Ceramic braces offer the same level of precision and reliability as traditional metal braces, making them suitable for a wide range of orthodontic issues.

More confidence during treatment:

Many teens and adults prefer ceramic braces because they offer a more subtle look during the treatment process.

Customisable elastics:

Like with metal braces, you can still choose coloured elastics if you want to personalise your look, or opt for clear bands for maximum discretion.

Comfortable and smooth:

The ceramic material is smooth against the lips and cheeks, helping to reduce irritation during daily wear.
