Choosing between braces and clear aligners can feel confusing. Both options are effective for straightening teeth, but the right choice depends on your lifestyle, dental needs, and treatment goals.
Traditional braces are fixed to the teeth and work continuously, making them ideal for complex tooth movements. Clear aligners, such as Invisalign®, are removable and nearly invisible, offering flexibility and comfort for many teens and adults.
During your orthodontic consultation, your dentist will assess your bite, tooth alignment, and expectations to recommend the most suitable option for you.
Braces and clear aligners are both effective ways to straighten teeth, but each works differently. Learn how lifestyle, comfort, and treatment goals can help determine which orthodontic option may be right for you.
