Braces Treatment at McClellan Orthodontics

McClellan Orthodontics

Your smile has an effect on your whole life, at McClellan Orthodontics, we offer three types of braces to help transform your smile.

1. Damon Silver Braces - Damon Silver Braces are a good, cost-effective option for kids, teens, and adults. Because of their durability and cost-effectiveness, they are the most popular braces used in orthodontics. These brackets are made up of a mix of stainless steel, nickel, and other metals…this makes the brackets very durable and helps prevent breakage. Damon brackets are bonded to the front of your teeth. The brackets hold the orthodontic wire in place. The wire is what actually causes the teeth to move, with the bracket serving as an anchor site on each of your teeth. As you move along in your treatment, the wires will be changed out to straighten teeth to your desired result.

2. Damon Clear Braces - Damon Clear Braces are a growing option to correct your bite and straighten your smile. Ceramic braces work just like traditional silver braces, however, they are made of a tooth-colored ceramic material and are nearly invisible. Many people opt for clear ceramic braces because they’re less noticeable on your teeth. This can be a huge advantage if you’re considering braces and don’t want to feel self-conscious about wearing them. Clear braces are recommended if all of your adult teeth have come in and you’ve mostly stopped growing. Damon Clear Braces are a good choice if you want your braces to be subtle.

3. Invisalign Clear Aligners - Invisalign is an orthodontic treatment that straightens your teeth without the use of metal or ceramic brackets. Invisalign is a series of custom-made clear braces that cover your teeth and gently pull them into the proper position over time. Because they are clear and can be taken on and off, they are less noticeable than traditional metal braces. With Invisalign clear braces there are no metal brackets or wires to detract from your smile while undergoing treatment. Invisalign clear aligners are made from BPA-free plastic, and they are far more comfortable than traditional silver braces. Both teenagers and adults can wear Invisalign. These clear aligners are used to close gaps between teeth, as well as treating overbite, underbite, open bite, crossbite, and overcrowded teeth.
