Ortodoncia ceramica in Cartagena, Colombia

Ceramic Braces

Ceramic braces are an orthodontic treatment that uses tooth-colored ceramic brackets to correct tooth alignment and improve bite function. Unlike metal braces, they are more discreet and blend more naturally with the teeth. They can be used to treat crowding, gaps between teeth, and various types of malocclusion, depending on the orthodontist's assessment.

What are the benefits of ceramic braces?

The main advantage is their appearance, as they are less noticeable than metal braces. They can also achieve tooth movements similar to those produced by other fixed orthodontic systems. However, ceramic brackets may be more fragile, require careful oral hygiene, and sometimes cost more.

How long does treatment with ceramic braces take?

Treatment duration depends on case complexity and how the teeth respond; it often takes around 18 to 24 months, although some cases require more or less time. Regular appointments allow the orthodontist to adjust the braces and monitor progress. Retainers are used after treatment to help maintain the results.
