Types of Braces:

Our office uses three different types of braces. The first and most popular in our practice are 3M metal braces with personalized colour elastics to match any occasion. The second, Forestadent metal braces, consist of "state-of the-art clips", instead of colour elastics to keep the wire secure. These braces are nickel free. The third type, generally chosen by older teenagers or adults, are made of clear ceramic and have limited visibilty. The length of treatment is generally the same for all three options.

Some adult and teen patients are candidates for Invisalign treatment. Invisalign uses a series of invisible removable aligners to align teeth, Invisalign treatment avoids the need for conventional braces and wires. Please see our FAQ for more information. 

Milton Orthodontics is proud to introduce Incognito lingual braces for teenagers and adults. Incognito provides a patient-specific customized braces treatment that is attached to the back side of the teeth. Please contact us for more information.
