Why Ceramic Braces Are Superior to the Competition

Not all bracket bonding materials are safe for your teeth, which is why Dr. T.C. Hardy abides by certain standards of care for his patients to ensure that they only receive the best of the best.

It should be the goal of each practitioner to utilize the best material for each procedure. Dr. T.C. Hardy does that. There have been studies comparing the different materials designed exclusively for the bonding of brackets and attachments. The goal is to achieve the highest bond strength with the least amount of change to the tooth enamel on application, during treatment and upon removal. Demineralization around the bracket is an undesired side effect of some orthodontic treatment materials and methods. Certain bonding agents help prevent this demineralization around the bracket. Ceramic Braces use top-of-the-line bonding agents to help prevent the dangerous effects of demineralization while still giving you superior, adhesive strength so that brackets won’t break or come off during treatment.


What is the Difference Between Clear Braces and Traditional Braces?

The translucent, ceramic material of clear braces blends with the color of your teeth and will resist staining or discoloration throughout your treatment. Couple that with its small, low-profile design, and Ceramic Braces are way ahead of the competition. Clear braces are virtually unnoticeable, making them perfect for patients of any age who are looking for the confidence and the freedom to smile on any occasion. Ceramic braces are the same size and shape as metal braces, except that they have tooth-colored or clear brackets that blend in with your teeth. Some even use tooth-colored wires to be even less noticeable.


Advantages of Clear Braces

  • Aesthetics: translucent braces blend in naturally with your teeth, making them much less noticeable
  • Low-profile design makes braces virtually unnoticeable
  • Reliable strength and small bracket design
  • High-tech debonding dependability for easy removal when your treatment is over
  • Improved comfort over former ceramic braces that feature rounded corners to reduce rubbing and irritation
  • Decreased risk of demineralization from bonding agents and brackets
