Smith & Smith Orthodontics, led by the skilled Dr. Brian and Dr. Lynn, is excited to bring quality braces care to patients in Siler City. We understand the importance of a straight, confident smile and offer customized braces options to meet the needs and preferences of each patient. Whether you’re considering traditional braces or a less visible option, we’re here to guide you through the journey.
Choosing Between Metal Braces & Clear Braces
Our practice offers two effective types of braces: traditional metal braces and more discreet clear braces. Each option comes with its own unique advantages, giving you the flexibility to choose what works best for your lifestyle and aesthetic goals.
Dependable Results With Metal Braces
Metal braces have remained a top choice in orthodontic care for decades, known for their durability and effectiveness. This tried-and-true method involves small metal brackets adhered to each tooth and connected by a thin wire.
Over time, gentle pressure from the wire helps guide your teeth into better alignment, addressing various issues like spacing, crowding, and bite misalignment. Today’s metal braces are designed with comfort in mind.
The brackets are smaller and sit more comfortably on teeth, while the wires are adjusted to maximize efficiency and reduce treatment time. Many patients, especially younger ones, enjoy the option of adding colorful bands for a bit of fun and personality. For those who prioritize strength and reliability, metal braces offer a proven path to a straighter, healthier smile.
Discreet Treatment With Clear Braces
Clear braces are an ideal choice for patients who prefer a subtle look while straightening their teeth. Unlike metal braces, clear braces use ceramic brackets that blend with the natural color of your teeth, making them less noticeable.
This approach combines the effectiveness of traditional braces with a more aesthetic appeal, which many teens and adults find appealing. Just like with metal braces, clear braces use brackets and wires to gradually adjust the position of your teeth.
However, their tooth-colored ceramic material provides a more natural look, making clear braces a great option for patients who want to feel confident throughout their treatment. Clear braces allow you to achieve the same transformative results with a solution that blends seamlessly into your smile.
Your Path to a Straighter Smile
Getting started with braces at Smith & Smith Orthodontics is easy and supportive. Your journey begins with a free consultation, where Dr. Brian or Dr. Lynn will assess your dental alignment, bite, and overall orthodontic needs. This in-depth evaluation includes x-rays and digital imaging, which help us design a treatment plan tailored to your goals.
Once your braces are in place, you’ll return for regular visits to adjust the wires and track your progress. Each visit keeps your treatment on course, ensuring your teeth are moving as planned. Throughout the process, we provide the information, support, and guidance you need to feel comfortable and confident in your care. Treatment duration varies depending on your specific needs, but our team is dedicated to making each step smooth and effective.
