Clear Braces – Nearly Invisible Teeth Straightening for White Plains Adults

Clear Braces - Nearly Invisible Teeth Straightening for White Plains Adults If you want to straighten your teeth or correct a bite problem, you have more orthodontic options in NYC than ever before. The current menu of orthodontic treatments requires a whole new glossary. Here are some of the common orthodontia terms heard around New Castle and White Plains.

Lingual Braces and Invisible Braces
These are sometimes described as ‘braces behind the teeth’. These braces can be just as effective at realigning adult teeth as the traditional ‘metal and wires’ kind but are almost completely hidden. Many White Plains adults and teens who straighten their teeth choose this type of orthodontia. To find out if lingual braces are the best type for your teeth, lifestyle and budget, schedule an orthodontic consultation at The Dental Design Center by calling 914-683-5898. We can help you determine which type of adults braces system is right for you and your smile.

Traditional and Clear Retainers
Once a NYC clear braces or traditional braces patient has completed treatment, retainers must be worn regularly to keep the beautiful straight teeth in their corrected position. There are several types of retainers available for White Plains cosmetic dental patients. The time-tested Hawley retainer consists of a metal wire that surrounds the teeth and keeps them from shifting. The metal wire is attached to a molded acrylic form that fits snugly in the upper mouth (palate) or lower mouth.

Clear retainers are newer on the Westchester County orthodontic scene. They cover the teeth like a see-through glove and do not need metal bows or clasps. Some Scarsdale retainer wearers believe clear retainers are more comfortable than Hawley retainers.

You don’t need to live with a mouth full of metal to get the beautiful teeth you are seeking. Let us help you develop a custom treatment plan for your smile.
