Self-Ligating Braces: Fewer Appointments, More Comfort
Self-ligating braces are a modern alternative to traditional braces. Made from the same durable materials, they use specialized clips instead of elastic bands to hold the archwire in place. This design reduces friction on your teeth, allowing for smoother, more comfortable movement and fewer office visits for adjustments.
At The Smile Makers, we offer self-ligating braces in metal or clear bracket styles, giving you options that fit your look and treatment goals. These braces are the same size as traditional metal braces but come with the added convenience of fewer adjustments and less pressure on your teeth.
Invisalign® Clear Aligners: The Invisible Way to Straighten Your Smile
If you’re looking for a nearly invisible orthodontic solution, Invisalign® clear aligners might be the perfect fit for you. These custom-made, removable trays gently move your teeth into place without the use of brackets or wires.
With Invisalign, you can:
Eat and drink anything you want by simply removing your aligners
Brush and floss with ease
Enjoy a smooth, comfortable fit with no metal to irritate your mouth
See your progress with advanced digital scans and the Invisalign Outcome Simulator
Whether you're an adult professional or a busy teen, Invisalign offers flexibility, comfort, and the confidence of a discreet treatment option.
