At Ellettsville Dental Center, we offer both types of braces that dominate the market today. Our qualified orthodontic dentists in Bloomington, Indiana, can apply metal braces for the more traditional approach,
and we can provide clear aligner therapy from Invisalign.
Since we provide both varieties of braces available, we keep your best interests at the forefront of treatment. If we assess that one will work better for you, we can discuss your goals and provide you with the orthodontic solution that fits your needs.
Metal Braces Are Highly Effective for Complex Cases
When we analyze your teeth alignment challenges, metal braces may provide more force for fixing advanced issues, especially with your bite. This option works via brackets strategically placed on teeth which we connect with wires. When you visit our dental office for braces in Bloomington, IN, we tighten those wires to progressively reposition your teeth.
Invisalign Clear Aligners Are Discreet
Patients with less complicated smile issues may prefer clear aligner therapy because the treatment is less conspicuous, more convenient, and more comfortable. These advantages appeal to older patients who want a straighter smile without being evident to friends and co-workers.
Invisalign trays are removable, so you can eat as you usually do, but you must be committed to wearing each aligner 22 hours per day to achieve the desired results.
Either way, our dentists will supply a variety of orthodontic dental care.
