Clear Aligner Braces vs. Metal Braces

Clear aligners function like traditional metal braces but feature one main difference. Instead of silver steel, invisible braces utilize a transparent ceramic material that blends in with white teeth. They straighten teeth like metal braces do, but with more style.

Therefore, clear aligner braces offer a more aesthetically pleasing and discreet appearance. Every aspect of these braces is translucent, meaning you can look through them naturally.

Alternatives to traditional and clear braces in NYC include ceramic braces and the following options:

  • Incognito (Lingual) Braces: Incognito braces are connected to the back side of the teeth, referred to as the lingual side. They work in the same manner as traditional braces. However, the wires are behind your teeth and not in front of them.
  • Damon Braces: These braces are similar to traditional braces. However, they use clear brackets and non-affixed archwires.

Due to their effectiveness and popularity, 209 NYC Dental offers clear aligners instead of lingual or Damon Braces.

Are Transparent Braces Noticeable?

Someone examining clear aligners

People are far less likely to notice clear aligner braces than metal braces. Even in close-up conversations or public presentations, clear aligners are hardly noticeable. Additionally, invisible aligners don’t typically cause altered speech (as is common with metal braces).

Clear aligner braces are highly desirable for children and adults who are self-conscious about wearing metal braces. If you’re an adult living in Manhattan, clear aligner braces help you stay confident at work and socializing. Aside from your improving smile, your co-workers will barely sense any differences in appearance.

Issues Correctable by Getting Clear Braces In NYC

After extensive development and research, dental issues like teeth crowding or an overbite are correctable with clear aligner braces. Undergoing a treatment plan that involves clear aligner braces may solve many dental problems.

209 NYC Dental specializes in treating a wide range of dental issues, including:

  • Clear Braces for an Overbite: Proper alignment matters. Naturally, your upper teeth should overlap your lower teeth. An overbite occurs when there’s a higher-than-normal amount of overlap. Overbites range in severity from one millimeter to a centimeter in extreme cases. In some cases, deep overbites can cause headaches, jaw clenching, teeth grinding, and TMJ-related pain. Schedule a consultation with our experienced Invisalign dentist to learn how we can help you achieve straight teeth.
  • Crowded Teeth: Crowding refers to a lack of space for all teeth within your jaw due to limited room. Teeth may appear displaced, rotated, or stacked one upon another. The causes of crowding include tooth size, improper eruption, jaw size, early or late tooth loss, and more.
  • Crossbite Correction: A crossbite, also called lingual positioning, occurs when one or multiple teeth grow towards the direction of your tongue or cheek instead of your nearby teeth due to misaligned growth.
  • Open Bite Treatment: An open bite is a rare example of malocclusion that affects only about 0.5% of the United States population. It is an uncommon issue. Unlike a crossbite and overbite, an open bite has no overlap or contact between the upper and lower anterior teeth. Instead, there is a large gap between the front upper and lower teeth.Invisalign for Underbite: An underbite is the opposite of an overbite. It’s also sometimes called class III malocclusion or prognathism. An underbite results from lower teeth coming out farther than upper teeth. Underbites can cause discomfort when chewing, swallowing, and resting your mouth.
  • Gap Teeth Treatment: Gap teeth result from diastema, a gap or space between two teeth. Gapped teeth are common in people with extra lip tissue (labial frenulum). The tissue can pull or push the teeth apart and, in most cases, impact the front two teeth.

Frequently Asked Questions About Clear Braces in NYC

Before and after images from someone who wore clear aligners

Are Clear Aligner Braces a Good Idea?

If you asked the many patients who have corrected their smile with clear braces in NYC, the answer would be a resounding “Yes!” At the end of the day, only you can decide whether clear aligners are correct.

What Are the Benefits of Getting Clear Braces in NYC?

Clear aligners are much harder to detect than metal braces, which is beneficial for people who don’t want others asking about their dental work. In addition, clear aligners braces are removable. Besides being able to eat anything while wearing clear braces it is also easy to maintain proper oral hygiene compared to traditional braces.

How Long Will I Have To Wear Clear Aligners?

The length of the treatment with clear aligners depends on the malocclusion issues of each patient. Generally, most issues can be corrected in twelve months. However, a slight deviation in the bite may be corrected with a shorter treatment, 6 months while a more complex case, like overbite or underbite may require longer treatment, 18 to 24 months.

How Do Clear Aligners Compare to Metal Braces?

Clear braces look like transparent mouthguards, while metal braces have visible wires and bands. The former is likely to cost slightly more, but the convenience and transparent appearance of clear aligners are worth it. Hence many adult patients choose clear braces in NYC over the traditional metal braces.

How Do I Keep Clear Aligner Braces Clean?

The best way to clean your aligners is with a small amount of unscented, clear, antibacterial soap and warm (but not hot) water.

Dr Park was super attentive and informative. She picked up on my multiple teeth fractures, which none of my previous dentists had mentioned before. She was also very gentle with the teeth cleaning. It didn’t hurt at all!

Doctor Park is the best of the best! She is so detailed, caring and communicates super well and ultimately does beautiful work. She did an amazing job on restoring my front teeth. I keep coming back to 209 dental because of her. Thank you Doctor!

The visit was amazing. All my questions and concerns were answered, thoroughly. I been searching for a place for years and finally found a place where I could get all of my dental work done. The doctor was super honest and I appreciated that more than anything. The entire staff was super welcoming and wonderful. I’d give 10 stars if i could.

Dr. Nikitayev is a gem. I was referred to him by my endodontist office and was highly recommended. Noe I can add my voice. The office is immaculate, and staff super friendly. Assistant Vanessa was an island of calm. Happy client here.

Can’t say enough good things about this place. We found this place because my partner had a dental emergency and no insurance. We both have dentist phobias that have prevented us from keeping on top of our teeth cleanings etc. and so we don’t have a regular one to go to in situations like this. I looked for the highest rated dentist in the city on Google and found this place, which mentions specialty in caring for emergencies on their site. And so I got him in the door based on that. They spoke the truth! They were so kind, patient, caring and non judgmental for my partner, it made me want to go in for my own cleaning and care. Now we’ve referred several people since! I personally have been seeing Dr. Reddy, who is a gem of a human who seems to enjoy her work. my friends have seen other dentists here and we’ve all had the best experience here and think ours is the best. :) Since it was years since my cleaning, I did need some work done over the last couple months or so and I made it to all of them. Instead of anxiety and maybe occasionally postponing as I would do in the past, I almost looked forward to my appointments. They made all the costs and insurance coverage completely clear and transparent and gave me choices. I commute from Bushwick but it’s been so worth it. If you are looking for the dentist, this is your place!
