Dental Braces are commonly use to straighten crooked or misaligned teeth. Braces are used in many cases of malocclusion such as open bite, deep bite, cross bite and other structural and cosmetic flaws.         

There are different types of braces depending on your needs and what is best advise by an Orthodontic dentist.    

When people thing of traditional braces visions of stainless steel wire covering the full mouth with metal brackets. These types of braces are normally not the preferred option.  Though these type of braces are now outdated they still present a more affordable dental option for those interested.        

There are Ceramic Braces that are not as apparent as the more traditional braces but they are susceptible to damage by accidental blows or trauma.   Lingual braces are fitted from behind the teeth so therefore not as apparent from the outside.         

The more poplar braces are the Invisalings.  Invisalign are clear braces resembling tooth color. They blend in with the teeth making them virtually invisible. Invisalign are removable enabling the wearer to snap them on and off when required.
