Types of braces we offer
Self-ligating braces
We offer self-ligating braces in our Tomball, Magnolia and Montgomery orthodontist offices. Self-ligating braces make your entire braces treatment more comfortable and pleasant with:
- Fewer appointments
- Less treatment time
- Less friction on the teeth
How do braces work?
Our self-ligating braces use a specialized clip in place of colored elastic ties to help the wire guide teeth into place more comfortably and efficiently. Many kids love changing their braces colors at each appointment to show off their style, so we’ll add the colored elastic ties if requested, although they’re not required!
Metal braces & clear braces
You have two choices when it comes to our self-ligating braces:
- Metal braces: Our modern self-ligating metal braces are more comfortable and smaller than traditional braces! Metal braces remain the golden standard for teeth straightening solutions, as they are strong and can handle most orthodontic problems.
- Clear braces: Made of translucent ceramic, our self-ligating clear braces are less visible on your teeth than metal braces. For this reason, clear braces, or ceramic braces, are used mainly on older teens and adult patients who want an invisible braces option.
The main difference between our clear braces vs. metal braces is the material used, as they both work the same way. Our self-ligating clear braces are ceramic, which is slightly more brittle than metal. Because of this, clear braces are an excellent option for those who need less extensive orthodontic treatment, while metal braces are ideal for more complicated cases.
Clear aligners
Clear aligners are a comfortable, invisible braces alternative that use a series of clear, removable plastic trays to straighten teeth.
Many patients love their removability, as they can eat and drink what they want while in clear aligner treatment, whereas traditional braces treatment comes with food restrictions. Plus, brushing and flossing are less of a hassle!
