Types of Braces

Advancements in orthodontic technology have made it possible for Teeters Orthodontics to offer a wide range of options to help you achieve the smile you’ve always wanted. Our modern orthodontic treatments combine effectiveness with aesthetics, ensuring there’s a solution for everyone.

While traditional metal braces remain a trusted and reliable choice, clear braces and Invisalign® aligners are excellent alternatives for teens and adults seeking more discreet solutions. With a focus on personalized care, Dr. Chris Teeters will work with you to determine the best treatment option for your unique needs and goals.

Metal Braces

Traditional metal braces are the most widely used orthodontic treatment today, offering reliability and excellent results. Modern designs are smaller, more comfortable, and made from high-grade metal alloys. For added fun, you can personalize your braces with colored elastics to create a vibrant, one-of-a-kind smile.

Ceramic Braces

Ceramic braces, often called clear braces, are designed with tooth-colored brackets and wires for a more discreet appearance. They provide the same reliable results as metal braces, making them a great choice for individuals seeking a subtle, low-profile way to perfect their smile.

Invisalign Clear Aligners

Invisalign aligners offer a modern, virtually invisible way to straighten your teeth. These clear, removable aligners are custom-made to fit comfortably and gently guide your teeth into alignment. With Invisalign, you can enjoy greater flexibility in your daily routine.
