With the advancement of dental technology, you have more options than ever before, such as LightForce braces. Read on to learn more about this option.

Customization

LightForce braces are custom-made and 3D printed for the specific shape of your teeth in your mouth. As a result, they easily adhere to your teeth, which will result in a greater amount of comfort.

Appearance

Traditional braces are very effective in treating severe misalignment and overcrowding. Some people may be trepidatious about seeking braces treatment because they’re worried about its obvious appearance. However, when orthodontists use LightForce braces, you can benefit from a more translucent and discreet appearance that blends in more with your teeth.

Indirect Bonding

IBD, or indirect bonding trays, are devices used to install brackets in this type of treatment. As a result, the brackets adhere to the teeth more efficiently and precisely. They also allow orthodontists and their team to install the braces much faster. It replaces the normal tooth-by tooth-method braces usually use.
