How Braces Work

A Proven Path To A Healthier, More Confident Smile

Braces use gentle, controlled pressure to guide teeth into healthier alignment over time. They’re an excellent option for treating both simple and complex orthodontic concerns. At Climb Orthodontics, we offer both traditional metal braces and clear ceramic braces so you can choose the option that best fits your smile goals.

Metal Braces

Metal braces are one of the most popular orthodontic options for a reason: they work. They’re strong, effective for all kinds of cases, and built to deliver long-lasting results.

Clear Ceramic Braces

Clear ceramic braces work like metal braces, but use tooth-colored brackets for a more subtle, low-profile look. They’re a great option for teens and adults who want a less noticeable treatment while still achieving the same reliable results.
