Clear braces or as they are often referred to as “tooth colored” braces, are ceramic brackets made of composite materials. They are very strong and generally do not stain.

New advances like clear braces have encouraged more and more adults to improve their smiles with orthodontic treatment. With options like gold and clear braces, you can smile with style before your treatment is even complete!

The ligatures (tiny rubber bands) that hold the arch wire on to the ceramic brackets are often white or clear or can even get them in colors if desired. The clear bands can stain if you do not take proper care of them or eat certain foods. Your orthodontist will review with you what you should and shouldn’t eat to avoid any unnecessary staining. Although the bands are changed monthly at each appointment you wouldn’t have to live with it long.

At first they may irritate your gums, lips, and cheeks, but after a few days of getting use to them they tend not be a problem anymore.
