Your child may need braces but feel self-conscious about how they'll look. Ceramic braces straighten teeth with tooth-colored brackets that are much harder to notice.
Ceramic braces work just like traditional metal braces, but the brackets are made from a clear or tooth-colored material that blends in with the teeth. They can correct crowding, gaps and bite problems while giving your child a more subtle look, which many teens appreciate. Our orthodontist can help you decide whether ceramic braces are a good fit for your child's smile and lifestyle.
Ceramic brackets are made from a translucent or tooth-colored material, so they blend in with natural tooth enamel.

Tooth-colored brackets blend in with your child's smile, making braces far less visible in photos and day-to-day life.
Ceramic braces use the same proven approach as traditional braces and can treat many of the same alignment and bite issues.
Because they're more discreet, ceramic braces can help self-conscious kids and teens feel more comfortable smiling throughout treatment.
Our orthodontist evaluates your child's teeth and bite and talks with you about whether ceramic braces are a good fit.
Tooth-colored brackets are bonded to the teeth and connected with a wire. We'll show your child how to clean around them.
Regular visits every several weeks keep treatment on track. After the braces come off, retainers help keep teeth in their new positions.
The ceramic brackets themselves resist staining, but the clear elastic ties can discolor from foods and drinks like curry, coffee and soda. Ties are replaced at each adjustment.
For many cases, yes. Ceramic braces use the same mechanics as metal braces. Our orthodontist will let you know if your child's case is better suited to another option.
Treatment time depends mostly on your child's individual case. In some situations, ceramic braces may take slightly longer than metal braces.
Brush after meals, floss daily with a floss threader or water flosser, and avoid hard or sticky foods that can damage brackets.
