Types of braces at Giardina Orthodontics in Harrisonburg, VA

Types of Braces

With significant advancements in orthodontic technology over recent years, patients now have a variety of treatment options available to them. At Giardina Orthodontics, we offer a comprehensive range of braces designed to meet the unique needs and preferences of each patient. Understanding these options can help you make an informed decision about your orthodontic care.

Metal Braces

Metal braces are a time-tested and highly effective orthodontic treatment. Comprising metal brackets, bands, and wires, these braces work by applying gentle pressure to gradually move teeth into their desired positions. They are suitable for patients of all ages and can be customized with colorful rubber bands to personalize your treatment experience.

Ceramic Braces

Crafted from ceramic materials that match your teeth's natural color, ceramic braces provide a subtle alternative to traditional metal. They blend seamlessly with your smile while delivering reliable orthodontic results, making them popular among older teens and adults seeking a less noticeable treatment option but may be recommended for younger children as well.

Invisalign Aligners

Invisalign aligners revolutionize orthodontic care with a clear, removable design ideal for teens and adults seeking aesthetic and convenient treatment. They fit snugly over teeth, are nearly invisible, and can be removed for eating, brushing, and special occasions.

Lingual Braces

The InBrace system is tailored specifically for you and offers a completely hidden teeth-straightening solution that gently moves your teeth without the need for bulky brackets or trays. Our unique autopilot Smartwire eliminates the need for monthly adjustments or tray changes.

Personalized Orthodontic Care

Each type of braces offers unique benefits, and the choice ultimately depends on your specific orthodontic needs, lifestyle, and preferences. At Giardina Orthodontics, Dr. Julia Giardina and our experienced team are dedicated to helping you achieve a healthy, beautiful smile with personalized care and state-of-the-art orthodontic treatments.
