Metal, ceramic, and 3D-printed custom braces from board-certified orthodontists — for children, teens, and adults. For some tooth movements and bite corrections, braces remain the most predictable choice. At Bella Smile, we recommend what works best for your case, not one appliance for everyone.
Digital scan, exam, and a straightforward recommendation on braces vs. Invisalign.

Options
Your braces options
Which bracket, and which appliance alongside it, depends on the bite, the age, and how discreet treatment needs to be. Your consultation settles it.
Proven
Traditional metal braces
Modern, efficient, and highly predictable, even for complex tooth movements.
Both can produce excellent results. Some movements are more predictable with braces; others benefit from Invisalign's digital planning and biomechanics. The appliance is the tool — your orthodontist designs the result.

Results with braces
Before and after
Patients treated with braces at Bella Smile. Shared with permission.
Teeth are usually tender for three to five days after braces go on and after adjustments. A soft diet and your usual headache tablet cover it. Cheeks and lips adapt within a week or two; wax helps in the meantime.
How long will I be in braces?
Most cases run 12 to 24 months. Custom-printed brackets and acceleration therapies can shorten that for suitable cases. Your consultation gives you an honest range for yours.
What can I not eat?
Hard, sticky, and chewy foods: ice, hard candy, caramel, gum, and biting directly into apples or corn on the cob. Everything else is fine, cut up where needed.
Are braces only for teenagers?
No. Adults are a growing share of our braces patients, and ceramic and custom-printed options keep treatment discreet. For children, an evaluation at age seven lets us catch bite and growth problems early.
