Whats new with braces?
The metal brackets can now be made extremely small making them much less noticeable. We have colored elastics to tie the wires in. The kids love them – school colors, orange and brown for Halloween, red and green for holiday time. There are clear brackets made from ceramics that can be much stronger and more color stable than the old plastic ones. The wires are now made from space age nickel-titanium which keep their form for much longer allowing for faster tooth movement and quicker treatment times.
