Clear ceramic braces are a type of orthodontic treatment designed to effectively close gaps, straighten teeth, and correct bite issues. Clear braces use ceramic materials that match the natural shade of teeth, to provide a more discreet alternative to traditional metal braces. Just as effective as traditional braces, the only major difference is the materials used. Clear braces are fitted to the teeth, which will then gradually work to align positioning of teeth over time.

Ceramic braces are a popular teeth straightening solution for many of our clients at Glow Orthodontics. Durable and effective, clear ceramic braces are subtle and less noticeable - perfect for those who are worried about the appearance of braces!

What are clear ceramic braces?

How effective are clear braces for orthodontic treatment?

Clear braces provide the same orthodontic treatment as traditional metal braces, with the benefit of being more discreet. Clear ceramic braces are ideal for individuals with complex orthodontic issues that cannot be corrected by clear aligners, such as:

→ Malocclusion (misaligned bite)

→ Teeth crowding

→ Overlapping teeth

→ Gaps or spaces between teeth

Under or overbite issues

Our orthodontists will examine your teeth to identify the issues that need to be corrected and and determine if you are a candidate for ceramic/clear braces. Book an appointment today or contact our team to find out more about our orthodontic treatments.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can clear braces be fitted on both the top and bottom rows of teeth?

Yes. They can be fitted on both upper and lower rows of teeth for aesthetic effect. A combination option of upper clear braces and lower metal braces is also possible as an alternative.

Are clear braces completely invisible?

Clear braces are close to, but not completely invisible — they can still be seen up close. At most distances, however, clear braces cannot be easily seen and provide a natural-looking appearance and smile.

How much do clear braces cost?

Clear braces are more expensive than traditional metal braces, due to the material expenses. Glow Orthodontics will provide you with an upfront quote for how much clear braces will cost after examining your teeth.

Are clear braces as durable as metal braces?

Yes, they are as durable as metal braces as we use a reputable brand of high-quality clear braces (Solventum 3M Clarity brackets) manufactured in the USA.

Do clear braces need to be replaced?

Unlike clear aligners, clear braces do not need to be replaced every few weeks. Once fitted, they will remain fixed in place until the end of treatment. However, there will be regular appointments to adjust and tighten the braces to keep the treatment on track.

How long will clear braces need to be worn?

Treatment duration for clear braces will vary based on each individual case but the general timeline for most patients is between 18 to 24 months. More complex orthodontic issues will result in a longer duration to achieve the ideal outcome.
