Understanding Braces: Metal and Clear Options
When considering braces for yourself or your child, it's essential to understand the available options. At New England Orthodontic Specialists, we offer two primary types of braces near Essex: metal braces and clear braces.
Metal Braces
Traditional metal braces have long been the foundation of orthodontic treatment. Thanks to advancements in dental technology, today's metal braces are more comfortable and less conspicuous than ever before. We utilize American Orthodontics Mini Masters Series brackets, known for their smaller, smoother design and angled features that provide precise and gentle control. This means a more comfortable experience for your child and potentially shorter treatment times.
Clear Braces
For those concerned about aesthetics, clear braces offer an effective alternative. Made from nearly invisible tooth-colored polycrystalline ceramic material, clear braces are less noticeable on the teeth. They provide the same functionality as metal braces but with a more discreet appearance, making them particularly popular among teens and adults who prefer a subtler option.

The Benefits of Braces for All Ages
Orthodontic treatment with braces isn't just for teenagers; individuals of all ages can benefit from properly aligned teeth. Straight teeth contribute to better oral health by making it easier to clean between teeth, thus reducing the risk of cavities and gum disease. Additionally, a well-aligned bite can alleviate issues related to chewing and speech. Beyond health benefits, a confident smile can significantly boost self-esteem, positively impacting social and professional interactions.
