Traditional Metal Braces
Traditional metal braces are the oldest approach in orthodontics, but despite having been around the longest, they're still the most popular option we offer. Composed of high-grade stainless steel, metal braces use a network of brackets and wires to straighten the teeth.
Modern braces use smaller brackets for a more comfortable, aesthetically appealing fit than braces in the past. Metal braces are durable, reliable, and cost-effective, and we can use them to correct virtually any dental condition. They make an excellent choice for virtually any patient.
Clear (Ceramic) Braces
Ceramic braces work the same way as metal braces, with one key difference: the brackets are made from a clear ceramic composite material, which allows them to blend in with teeth. This produces a discreet, less noticeable option that carries many of the same benefits as traditional metal braces. Clear braces can address almost any dental condition, but they offer distinct cosmetic benefits.
Invisalign® Clear Aligners
Invisalign is a radically different approach that does away with brackets and wires entirely. It relies on a series of clear, removable trays to straighten the teeth. These clear aligners fit directly onto the dental arch and are completely transparent, making them almost impossible to see when worn.
Furthermore, Invisalign trays are 100% removable — so patients are free to pop them out to eat, drink, brush, and floss. Invisalign is one of the most convenient and discreet options on the market, making it a popular choice for adult orthodontic care. For adolescent patients, we even offer a specialized form called Invisalign Teen.
Braces for Kids, Teens & Adults
At Colorado Orthodontics, we offer braces and clear aligner solutions for patients of every age. Early orthodontic care for kids can help guide proper jaw and teeth development, reducing the need for more complex work down the road. Our teen patients love the variety of options we offer — from traditional metal braces to Invisalign Teen — and our adult patients appreciate how discreet modern clear aligners and ceramic braces can be.
No matter your age or dental situation, our team serving the greater Denver, CO area is here to help you find the right fit. We'll work with you to customize a plan that fits your lifestyle, schedule, and budget.
