Clear Braces in Beverly Hills
A Subtle Way to a Perfect Smile
What are Clear Braces?
Clear braces serve as an aesthetic alternative to standard metal braces for patients who want a subtle look. Traditionally, metal braces use stainless steel brackets that stand out clearly against your white tooth enamel. Conversely, clear braces utilize innovative ceramic materials that mimic the appearance of your natural teeth for a seamless finish.
These ceramic brackets are designed to be stain-resistant and durable throughout your entire orthodontic journey. In contrast, regular fillings or simple aligners might not have the same strength to correct complex tooth movements. Therefore, clear braces offer a perfect balance between the invisibility of aligners and the corrective power of fixed orthodontics.
Choosing clear braces helps you maintain your professional appearance while you undergo a complete smile transformation. Consequently, many adults and teens in Los Angeles prefer this option to avoid the “metal mouth” look. We use high-grade materials to ensure your treatment is both effective and comfortable from start to finish.
The Treatment Process
The process begins with a detailed digital scan and an orthodontic exam at our Beverly Hills office. After analyzing your bite, I create a customized plan to move your teeth into their ideal positions. Subsequently, I carefully bond the clear ceramic brackets to the front of each tooth using a safe dental adhesive.
During your follow-up visits, I will adjust the thin archwires that connect your brackets to guide your progress. These appointments are essential to ensure your teeth move precisely according to our specialized treatment map. Specifically, I monitor the health of your gums and enamel to keep your smile bright throughout the process.
Once your teeth reach their perfect alignment, I gently remove the brackets and polish your enamel. After the removal, I provide a custom retainer to ensure your new smile stays straight for a lifetime. Therefore, you can enjoy the confidence of a beautiful, healthy smile without ever having worn bulky metal hardware.
Cost and Financing
Investing in clear braces is a valuable step toward better oral health and increased self-confidence for your future. While the cost of ceramic materials can vary, the long-term benefits of a straight smile are truly priceless. To help make this treatment accessible, we offer various flexible payment plans and work with most PPO insurance providers.
