Types of Braces at Braces by Dr. Ruth
We offer two types of braces: traditional metal braces and clear braces. Both options are designed to effectively straighten your teeth and improve your smile.
Metal Braces
Metal braces have long set the standard for orthodontic treatment due to their proven effectiveness and durability. These braces consist of high-grade stainless steel brackets that are attached to each tooth and connected by archwires. The brackets and wires work together to apply gentle, consistent pressure, gradually moving your teeth into the desired position.
Clear Braces
Clear braces offer a more discreet alternative to traditional metal braces. Made from transparent or tooth-colored materials, clear braces blend in with your natural teeth, making them less noticeable. This makes them an excellent option for teens and adults who want to straighten their teeth without the visibility of metal braces.
The Orthodontic Process
The journey to a beautiful, straight smile at Braces by Dr. Ruth begins with a free consultation. During this initial visit, Dr. Ruth Edmonds will conduct a comprehensive examination of your teeth and bite. This may include taking x-rays and digital scans to get a detailed view of your oral health. Based on this evaluation, Dr. Edmonds will discuss your orthodontic needs and recommend the best treatment options for you.
