Fairfield & Orange Clear Braces
At Bilous Orthodontics, with locations in Fairfield and Orange, we're proud to offer clear braces. Dr. Bilous and Dr. Harel harness this state-of-the-art technology to create custom-fitted braces for your unique smile structure.
What Are Ceramic Braces?
Ceramic braces offer a cutting-edge solution that combines power with style. They operate like traditional braces but use near-invisible ceramic brackets.
These clear braces blend seamlessly with your teeth, making them less visible. You get effective orthodontic treatment while keeping a low profile.
How They Work
Clear braces apply pressure to your teeth to guide them into their ideal positions over time. Start with a free consultation at our Fairfield or Orange offices.
We use digital scans and X-rays to get a detailed picture of your smile. Dr. Bilous or Dr. Harel will examine your smile and create a personalized treatment plan based on your medical records and analysis.
Once your clear braces are customized, Dr. Bilous or Dr. Harel will attach the brackets digitally, making the process quick and efficient.
You'll visit our clinic for periodic adjustments to ensure your teeth move correctly. These visits are usually quick and essential for your treatment.
The Benefits of
Clear Braces
Clear braces offer you a range of advantages that make them a popular choice for orthodontic treatment. Let's explore the benefits of choosing this treatment:
Discreet Appearance
Clear braces are virtually invisible. They allow you to straighten your teeth without drawing the attention that metal braces might. You can keep smiling and living your life with confidence.
Customized Alignment
Dr. Bilous and Dr. Harel tailor your clear braces treatment to address your unique dental needs. Ceramic braces can correct these issues to provide you with the smile you deserve. They’re effective with crooked teeth, gaps, overbite, underbite, or crossbite.
Exceptional Comfort
Ceramic braces are designed with your comfort in mind. The smooth ceramic brackets are less likely than their metal variants to irritate your cheeks and gums. You’ll enjoy a comfortable orthodontic experience throughout your treatment.
Durable & Reliable
Clear braces are constructed from high-quality, durable materials that you can trust. You'll have confidence knowing that your braces will effectively guide your teeth into their desired positions to give long-lasting results.
Stain Resistant
The materials used in our clear braces are resistant to staining, so your braces will maintain their transparency. Your smile will remain on display during your orthodontic journey.
Clear Vs. Metal Braces: What’s Best for Me?
Choosing the right type of braces is a big decision in your orthodontic journey. Both clear and traditional braces offer practical solutions for aligning teeth, but they come with different aesthetic and functional considerations.
Understanding the differences can help you make an informed choice that aligns with your lifestyle, preferences, and orthodontic needs.
Visibility
We design our clear braces with discretion in mind. We use transparent or tooth-colored brackets that blend in with your teeth, which is great if you’re a teen or adult concerned about how you might look in metal braces.
Traditional metal braces are durable, but they are more visible. Metal brackets also offer you a colorful way to personalize your smile with different elastic band colors.
Treatment Efficiency
While clear braces are as effective as traditional braces for many orthodontic issues, you may need some adjustments to prevent damage to the ceramic brackets.
Metal braces are incredibly efficient at correcting many orthodontic problems, including more complex cases. Their robustness allows for potentially faster treatment times in some scenarios.
Maintenance & Care
The brackets for clear braces can be larger and require more meticulous oral hygiene to prevent staining and maintain a discreet appearance.
Metal braces are less susceptible to staining, and while they also require diligent oral hygiene, they are generally more forgiving to the rigors of everyday wear and tear.

During your comprehensive orthodontic assessment with Dr. Bilous and Dr. Harel, we'll identify the best treatment to enhance your smile.
