Clear Braces | Southington
A Clear Alternative to Metal Braces
Here at Southington Orthodontics, we’re proud to offer clear braces — a treatment with the power of braces and the low profile of clear aligners.
Our comfortable ceramic material blends right in with your smile.
What Are Ceramic Braces?
Ceramic braces are a modern orthodontic option that combines effectiveness with aesthetics. These braces work similarly to traditional braces but with a discreet twist.
Instead of metal brackets, ceramic braces use clear brackets that blend in with your teeth. That means they're much less noticeable, so you can get a beautifully aligned smile without drawing extra attention to your teeth.
How They Work
Braces apply pressure to your teeth, gradually guiding them into the perfect spot. You’ll start with a free consultation at our Southington Office.
After a series of digital scans of your mouth (say goodbye to goopy impressions!) and a few X-rays for a detailed picture of your smile, Dr. C will examine your smile. He’ll create a personalized treatment plan for you based on your medical records and analysis.
Once we’ve customized your new braces, Dr. C will attach the brackets. Again, you can forget about the time-consuming process of the past — it’s all digital.
You'll visit our clinic for periodic adjustments to ensure your teeth move correctly. These visits are usually pretty quick and are an essential part of your treatment!
Digital Bracket Placement
At Southington Orthodontics, not only do you get the power of clear ceramic braces to supercharge your smile, but your bonding process is easier than ever.
Forget the tedious piece-by-piece method of the old days. Our approach? A fully digital bonding that precisely determines the perfect position for each bracket.
Let’s learn a little more about this exciting new process:
How It Works
First, we use cutting-edge technology like the iTero scanner to create a precise 3D model of your teeth. This helps us to determine the best placement of your brackets. Dr. C and the team customize the position of each bracket to suit your specific smile with unmatched accuracy.
Next, we secure the brackets onto plastic trays specifically crafted for your treatment. When you visit our office to get your braces, we'll prepare your teeth for the adhesion process.
Afterward, we'll gently place the trays onto your teeth, much like fitting a mouthguard. With digital bracket placement, we complete a significant portion of the work before your appointment, saving you time and ensuring a comfortable and efficient start to your orthodontic journey.

The Benefits of Clear Braces
Clear braces offer a range of advantages that make them a popular choice for orthodontic treatment. Let's explore the benefits of choosing clear braces:
Discreet Appearance
Clear braces are virtually invisible, allowing you to straighten your teeth without the appearance of traditional braces. You can smile and interact with confidence throughout your treatment.
Custom Alignment
Dr. C tailors your clear braces treatment to address your unique dental needs. Whether you have crooked teeth, gaps, overbite, underbite, or crossbite, clear braces can effectively correct these issues, providing you with the smile you desire.
Exceptional Comfort
Clear braces are designed with your comfort in mind. The smooth ceramic brackets are less likely their metal counterparts to irritate your cheeks and gums, ensuring a comfortable orthodontic experience throughout your treatment.
Stain Resistance
The materials used in clear braces are resistant to staining, allowing your braces to maintain their transparency. This ensures that your smile remains on display during your orthodontic journey.
Durability & Reliability
Clear braces are constructed from high-quality, durable materials that you can trust. You’ll have confidence knowing that your braces will effectively guide your teeth into their desired positions to give you long-lasting results.
