Ceramic braces allow you to straighten your teeth without sacrificing your smile.
They use tooth-coloured brackets made from a ceramic material that adhere to the font of your teeth, so they are virtually invisible when you smile. The archwire that does the work to move your teeth can be white or silver.
Do ceramic braces break easily?
Nowadays ceramic braces are made with strong composite materials and they are durable. They don’t typically break or chip easily.
Do ceramic braces stain?
The brackets likely won’t stain, but the clear bands that connect the archwire to brackets can stain easily. They are replaced at each adjustment appointment, but you still may want to avoid dark stained foods and beverages.
Do they cost more than traditional braces?
They do cost slightly more because the materials are more expensive.
