Find Your Best Smile With Ceramic Braces
Your smile is a masterpiece, and Dr. Ryan Cox can enhance its natural beauty with clear braces. If you're looking for a subtle way to straighten your teeth, these special ceramic brackets could be just what you've been searching for.
Subtle Braces,
Confident Smiles
Ceramic braces provide a low-profile solution to align your teeth. Unlike traditional metal braces, the clear brackets Dr. Cox uses match the color of your teeth, making them discreet and stylish. That means you can get a straighter smile without drawing attention to your treatment.
How Ceramic Braces Work
Ceramic braces function similarly to traditional braces. Dr. Cox attaches clear brackets to the front surface of your teeth and threads an archwire through them.
As you wear your ceramic braces, the gentle pressure from the archwire guides your teeth into alignment, resulting in a beautifully straight smile.
The Benefits of Ceramic Braces
Clear braces offer many advantages for older teens and adults who prefer a subtle approach to orthodontic treatment. While the discreet appearance is appealing, there are more benefits to ceramic braces at Ryan Cox Orthodontics.

Caring for Your Clear Braces
Proper care is essential to keep your smile and appliance in great shape. Follow these simple steps to maintain your braces:
Keep Them Clean
Maintaining clean teeth is crucial when wearing clear braces. After each meal, thoroughly brush your teeth with a soft toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste. Pay extra attention to cleaning around the brackets and wires to remove any food particles or plaque.
Remember to use a floss threader or specialized orthodontic floss daily to clean between the braces. Consider using an antibacterial mouthwash for added freshness and plaque reduction.
Be Mindful of Food Choices
It's important to avoid certain foods during treatment to protect your braces. Avoid sticky or chewy foods like caramel, chewing gum, or toffee, as they can get stuck in the braces and are difficult to remove.
You should also avoid hard and crunchy foods like popcorn, certain candy, or nuts, as they can damage the brackets or wires. Go for softer alternatives such as cooked vegetables, yogurt, and lean meats.
If you're consuming larger or harder foods, cutting them into smaller, bite-sized pieces can reduce the risk of damage.
