Let's Be Clear

Contrary to popular belief, traditional metal braces are only one of multiple choices when it comes to orthodontic treatment. At Chorak Orthodontics, we want you to know there are other options out there…and clearly, we are excited about it!

Traditional metal braces are the most common type of braces and are more comfortable today than ever before. They are made of high-grade stainless steel, and straighten your teeth using metal brackets and archwires. However, as orthodontics has progressed we now have less visible options.

Our Damon Clear Braces are a revolutionary leap forward in orthodontic care. The natural look of these smooth, sculpted and completely clear ceramic braces are strong and will not stain or discolor. These ceramic brackets offer our patients the look they want, with all of the functionality of traditional metal brackets. Their comfortable, sculptured design and attractive translucent appearance help provide the self-confidence that comes from wearing braces that look as good as they perform. 

Damon Clear Braces are made of clear materials and are therefore less visible on your teeth than traditional metal braces. For this reason, ceramic braces are used mainly on older teenagers and adult patients who have cosmetic concerns.

Esthetics are the number one reason for choosing to go clear, and our Damon Clear Braces are designed to be discreet and comfortable.

Interested in learning more about Damon Clear Braces? Give of our Fairwood or Mercer Island Orthodontic Offices a call. Our friendly and knowledgeable staff will be happy to answer any questions you may have.
