Traditional & Clear Braces
Inner Smiles Orthodontics
Tried, True, and Tailored to You
Not every smile—or lifestyle—is the same. At Inner-Smiles Orthodontics, we offer both traditional metal braces and more discreet clear (ceramic) braces, giving you customized options backed by decades of clinical experience. Whether you're focused on aesthetics or want the most time-tested appliance, we’ll help you choose the right tool for the best possible result.
Why Braces Are Still the Gold Standard
Braces remain one of the most effective and efficient ways to align teeth. Today’s technology has transformed how we approach orthodontics—from bracket design to wire engineering—making treatment faster, more comfortable, and more predictable than ever before.
Dr. Sheila personally places every bracket, using your X-rays and diagnostic records to precisely determine position and angulation. Because no matter how sophisticated the appliance, results always come down to skilled planning and execution.
Traditional Metal Braces
Reliable. Durable. Highly Efficient.
Modern metal braces are nothing like the ones your parents had. Ours feature precision-crafted brackets—customized for each tooth—and NASA-developed wires that apply continuous, gentle pressure. These cutting-edge materials work with your biology to move teeth steadily and reshape the surrounding bone for a healthy, lasting outcome.
Patients of all ages appreciate how well these braces work—especially when paired with the fun of colored elastics. Whether you want to show off school spirit or celebrate the season, you can change up your look at every appointment.
Clear Braces
Discreet Power Behind a Confident Smile
Clear braces offer the same reliable tooth movement as metal braces but with a much lower profile. The ceramic blends with your natural tooth color, making them a popular choice for adults, professionals, and teens looking for subtlety without sacrificing control.
These brackets are especially helpful in complex cases where aligners aren’t ideal or where consistent wear may be a concern. Clear braces provide the aesthetic you want with the control we need to create the best possible outcome.
