Types Of Orthodontic Treatments We Offer

Orthodontics has come a long way in the last few decades, and several treatment options exist to straighten teeth. Some of the most popular treatment options we provide include the following:

• • Traditional Metal Braces

Metal braces are one of the most popular orthodontic treatments we provide in Converse, TX. Traditional metal braces consist of metal brackets and wires attached to the teeth and adjusted to apply gentle pressure to move your misaligned teeth to the desired position.

• • Ceramic Braces

Also called clear braces, these are made from tooth-colored material that can blend in with your teeth. Consequently, they are much less visible than metal braces when you smile or talk.

• • Lingual Braces

You can opt for lingual braces if you want a more discreet option to straighten your teeth. Although these are also made from metal, they are attached to the back of your teeth, making them less conspicuous than traditional metal braces. However, they are challenging to clean and require more maintenance.

• • Invisalign®

Invisalign® offers a virtually invisible way to correct orthodontic issues. Invisalign aligners are made from a transparent polymeric material, custom-made for each patient’s teeth. Their most significant advantage is that you can remove them while eating or brushing, making them much more comfortable.
