Some patients want to reduce the visibility of the silver and shiny orthodontic appliances….
In this context, there are several options:
Transparent/white cubes, made of porcelain – significantly reduce the visibility of the equipment so that in fact you mainly see the wire connecting the cubes (and it is also available in white). By the way, this device has become a kind of “trend” among 30-40-50 year old women who are seeking orthodontic treatment… you can read about it in the article here as well.
Transparent aligners, with the leading company in the field being Invisalign, but there are also other companies such as Clear Correct, Spark and even local manufacturers.
Hidden braces (Lingual) – cubes glued from the inside of the teeth (the side of the tongue). Here, too, there are several manufacturers, the best known of which are Incognito and WIN.
Each method has advantages and disadvantages and I will be happy to tell you about it when we meet.
