Why Choose Clear Braces for Adults?
What are clear braces for adults
Clear braces use tooth colored ceramic brackets paired with wires that are less noticeable than traditional metal. They work the same way as metal braces by gently guiding teeth into better alignment. Many adults choose ceramic braces because they are low profile in photos and in everyday life, yet they can handle mild to complex bite issues.
Why adults choose ceramic braces
- Subtle appearance that blends with your smile
- Effective for a wide range of orthodontic problems
- Fixed to your teeth so there is no tray to remember to wear
- A strong modern design that stands up to daily use
These benefits make ceramic braces a smart choice if you want dependable tooth movement with a cleaner look at work or social events.
Invisalign or clear braces
Some adults prefer removable care. Total Orthodontics treats many adult cases with Invisalign clear aligners. Invisalign uses a series of custom trays that you change on a schedule to move teeth. Your doctor will help you compare Invisalign and ceramic braces based on your bite, timeline, and routine.
Damon braces option
If you and your orthodontist decide that braces are best, the office also provides Damon self ligating braces. This system uses a special slide mechanism to hold the wire, which can reduce friction during tooth movement. Your doctor can explain whether Damon or ceramic brackets fit your needs.
Adult focused care and technology
Adults often ask for shorter visits and smooth appointments. Total Orthodontics tailors’ treatment plans for adults and uses digital iTero impressions for a comfortable goop free scan. Your first visit will include records, an exam, and a clear plan that fits your goals.
What to expect during treatment
- Consultation and plan
You will review photos, a scan, and your recommended path, which could be ceramic braces, Invisalign, or another in office option. - Active treatment
With clear braces you will come in for routine adjustments and wire changes. With Invisalign you will switch to the next set of aligners and check in periodically to confirm progress. - Finishing and retention
When your teeth reach their new positions, your team will guide you through the finishing steps and retainers to help keep your results stable.
Easy financing and two convenient locations
The practice offers easy financing to help fit orthodontic care into your budget. You can be seen in Lone Tree or in Greenwood Village, whichever is more convenient for you.
