Braces are one of the most effective methods used to straighten out teeth. However, you may not know that there are actually four main types of braces: metallic or traditional braces, ceramic braces, lingual braces, and Invisalign.

Choosing to straighten your teeth is a big decision that affects not only your appearance, but your lifestyle as well and the benefits of having properly aligned teeth extend far beyond a confident smile. Straightening your teeth can significantly affect your overall dental health. As an adult, you may be looking to improve your smile for business and/or social reasons. Or maybe you are a teen or the parent of a teen looking for an effective yet modern-day solution for improving your smile. Either way…Invisalign or Invisalign Teen can provide a simple way to accomplish your goals without having to put your life on hold.
There are many ways to get the perfect smile, but the most common options are Invisalign and braces. Both are great treatments, but the one obvious difference is the appearance of the two. Braces have a wire-like appearance and sit in the fronts of your teeth and are far more obvious, whereas Invisalign utilizes a set of clear plastic trays that go over your teeth and are not visible. Invisalign is great for correcting less complicated alignments for people who are looking to have a more aesthetically pleasing smile without putting as much pressure on the tooth.
