What Are Braces?

Braces are orthodontic devices used to align and straighten teeth and help position them with regard to a person's bite. They are also used to correct underbites, overbites, crossbites, open bites, deep bites, crooked teeth, and various other flaws of teeth and jaw.

At Griffin & Weimer Orthodontics, we offer both traditional metal braces and clear ceramic braces. During your free consultation, Dr. Griffin or Dr. Weimer will recommend the best option based on your specific needs, lifestyle, and goals.

Traditional Metal Braces

The most common type of braces, metal braces are highly effective and now more comfortable than ever. Modern brackets are smaller and smoother.

  • Most affordable option
  • Highly effective for complex cases
  • Fun colored elastics for kids
  • Most tried and tested

Clear Ceramic Braces

Ceramic braces work like metal braces but use tooth-colored or clear brackets that blend with your teeth for a more subtle appearance.

  • Less noticeable than metal
  • Same effectiveness as metal
  • Popular with teens and adults
  • Stain-resistant modern materials
