Selecting the right type of braces depends on the specific orthodontic issues you’re facing. Each type of brace—metal, ceramic, rubber band braces or Invisalign—offers unique advantages for different cases, so it’s essential to find the best fit to achieve effective results. At Greater Northwest Orthodontics, we see patients from Issaquah and Sammamish, Washington, and surrounding areas. Our team can identify your orthodontic issue and suggest the best corrective solution.
For moderate to severe overcrowding, metal braces are often recommended due to their strength and ability to apply significant force consistently. Ceramic braces are also suitable for overcrowding, providing similar effectiveness with a more discreet appearance. Invisalign can address mild to moderate crowding but may not be the best choice for severe cases.
Metal braces remain the top choice for correcting bite issues, as they allow for precise adjustments over time. Ceramic braces can also help align overbites or underbites, though they may be more fragile under higher force. Invisalign is generally effective only for mild bite adjustments and may not provide the needed control for more severe cases.
For patients with gaps between teeth, both ceramic braces and Invisalign offer aesthetic solutions that work well. Metal braces can also close gaps effectively, particularly if combined with other complex issues like crowding or bite misalignment.
For complex misalignments or rotated teeth, metal braces are the most effective solution due to their strength and control. Ceramic braces can be an option if aesthetics are a priority, while Invisalign is typically reserved for milder misalignments.
