Ceramic braces are popular because they blend more naturally with the color of your teeth.

They may appeal to adults and teenagers who want the effectiveness of fixed braces with a less noticeable appearance.

Ceramic Braces vs. Metal Braces

Both treatments use brackets and wires to move teeth.


Metal braces are generally more durable and may be preferable in certain situations. Ceramic braces are less visually prominent but can require additional care because their brackets may be more susceptible to damage.


Your orthodontist can explain which option is best suited to your dental needs.

Who Is a Candidate for Ceramic Braces?

Ceramic braces may be appropriate for patients with crowded teeth, spacing, or bite concerns.



A consultation is necessary to determine whether ceramic braces are suitable for your treatment plan.

Caring for Ceramic Braces

Brush and floss regularly, avoid damaging foods, and follow your orthodontist’s recommendations.


Certain foods and beverages may discolor the elastic ties used with ceramic braces, even when the ceramic brackets themselves resist staining.
