Ceramic braces use tooth-coloured brackets and wires to provide an effective orthodontic treatment while being less noticeable than traditional metal braces.
Ceramic Braces Treatment
Ceramic braces consist of very small tooth coloured brackets attached to a wire that are placed on the front of your teeth.
Similarly to traditional braces, ceramic braces use constant as well as gentle pressure, which over time, move your teeth into their proper positions.
