    Great comparison! I knew right away that traditional metal braces were best for me. My ortho recommended clear aligners, but made it clear that the results were dependent on my compliance. I know myself too well! Although I am a bit older than others with braces, I don't mind how visible they are. The end result will be a beautiful smile!

    I have ceramic on top and it doesn't stain at all. My co-worker got her braces from a different Orthodontist though and hers look a lot more yellow than mine. I was actually going to go with metal on top and bottom because of this until I saw the receptionist at my Orthodontist office with the white brackets and hers looked nice. I've had mine for a year and no staining. The bands can stain though. At my orthodontist there wasn't a big price difference so that didn't factor into the decision.
    I have metal on bottom because of my bite. I would have had to have more turbos if I wanted ceramic and she said it would probably be uncomfortable. I am happy I went with her advice. With the way I smile you can see much of my lower teeth anyway. I like the ceramic on top because they look less bulky, less metal mouth, even though the ceramic brackets are actually larger.
    Invisalign would have been expensive for me and wouldn't have been the best for correcting my cross bite. Also, I had worked to reverse my early signs of gum disease and I was very wary of having plastic pushed up against my gums 22 hours a day, for two years. I was also worried I would take them in and out.
    Lingual braces were out of the question. Never came up in the consult because she knew I was barely able to afford normal braces. Those are so incredibly expensive. I think they start at about $9,000. Just if anyone was wondering.

I'm opting for the lowest profile and most efficient. I don't care how visible they are. I want them to be as comfortable as possible and work as effectively as possible.

  • @SteveGia80

    I am so GLAD that I didn’t go with aligners. I have classic metal braces on upper and lower arches. My teeth are moving faster and I can drink coffee and wine and I don’t have to worry about staining. I just brush my teeth immediately after and I’m good to go. Plus, clear brackets and aligners are more expensive. Why try to hide you have braces? Just go with it and follow the instructions of your orthodontist and you can get them off early!

    I have ceramic (clear) braces for BOTH top and bottom teeth. When I was a kid I constantly had reactions to nickel, and so I thought I was allergic to nickel (turned out I wasn’t) and my orthodontist recommended Invisalign first but then she gave instructions to try out ceramic braces first to see if I had an reaction (in which that case I didn’t!!). These braces are a tad bit bigger than metal braces, they can easily point out food in your mouth, and yes they are less noticeable from far away and in your memory (BUT STILL NOTICEABLE). Honestly they do work the same way as they do with metal braces but to remove ceramic braces, the orthodontist will actually have to BREAK the bracket into shards in order to remove it. That’s really the only difference that I know and yes if you get ceramic braces, you will have to have metal brackets in the back regardless of if you want a complete clear set or not.

    I've had lingual braces on my upper teeth and regular clear ones on my lower teeth for almost 3 years now. I can for sure say that in my experience, the regular ones have been more irritating and hurting my mouth than the lingual ones. My guess is that the skin inside the mouth and lips is more sensetive than the tounge. The downside of the lingual ones is that some words are harder to pronounce (in my language at least), harder to clean properly and EVERYTHING gets stuck! Just rinse your mouth 2 or 3 times after meals and then floss. Yes it's more expensive but sooo worth it.

    First I wanted invisalign but my ortho said for my case braces would be better since I had a significant overbite to fix and it would be harder to tweak the treatments for my case with just invisalign. So then I researched clear or ceramic braces and almost got them but saw videos of people complaining about how bulky, fragile, and slower they are to move teeth. So now I think I'm getting traditional metal braces but I just hate how visible they are. I wish there was an option to get full ceramic damon braces (that don't require any of the colored ties) on both the top and bottom teeth but even so there are no providers where I live :( and I also know orthodontists usually don't put ceramic on the bottom because they are already more fragile as it is but a girl can dream.

So for me, my canine teeth are impacted and there was some wear on the bottom so my ortho said he’d recommend traditional for the top and lingual on bottom. The total though was about $7000, but my insurance paid $2500 of it so ultimately I’m paying about $4500 for my treatment. I wasn’t really concerned with looks. Honestly I’d rather do both top and bottom traditional than do half and half, especially because I have a deep bite as well so all you’ll see are the traditional ones anyway, but it’s whatever.

    Thank you for this video, much appreciated! My ortho has put ceramic braces just 2 days ago on both my top and bottom teeth... I have a slight overbite that needs to be corrected so he’s also put mouth bite blocks ontop of my back teeth of which i’m guessing to protect the bottom brackets. I was going to choose traditional metal but last minute, changed to damon clear braces but my ortho clinic didn’t have any in stock so I then finally decided to go with ceramic braces instead... still unsure whether I made the right choice as I have been very indecisive due to braces having their own pros and cons. I would like to ask when do you start seeing some changes to your teeth with ceramic braces and how much longer is the treatment compared to metal? And in regards to the bite blocks, how long do they stay on for? I find them quite uncomfortable when I eat.

    When I started my treatment I was getting ceramic braces and minutes before I changed to metal braces because I heard they stain and sometimes hurt when coming off. And I noticed that the mini braces were a better fit because I have small teeth.

    i’m doing aligners right now, but have been needing follow up aligners after my treatment has been “finished.” they’ve moved my teeth a lot (smiledirectclub) but i wonder if my bad crossbite is causing them to not work fully. i can’t afford an orthodontist and my mother never thought i needed to fix my bite. i feel so helpless as an adult for my bite and jaw alignment. my jaw cracks and my bite is so uncomfortable and crossed. :(

    Do invisalign really works like the metal braces ? Can anyone be a candidate? I use to have braces but I never finish the treatment. My teeth are pretty much align and good except for a bottom tooth slightly not aligned. I'm assuming 6 months with invisalign it would be 100% perfect but I'm not a dentist to know for sure. Do you have to wear retainers for the rest of your life after the treatment is over? Do you have to wear it all day or only when going to sleep?

    I chose the clear braces, but now that I have the power chains, I wish I had just went ahead with metal braces. I did not have the clear power chains placed because I was told that they would turn colors by the second week, so I got the silver power chains. Just should have saved myself 100.00 total and got the metal braces. My question is, can I ask for metal braces for the lower teeth (to be put in next week) since they are more sturdy or do I have to stick with the clear?
