Clear Braces (6 Month Smiles)
Clear Braces are a low-visibility alternative to traditional metal braces.
The tooth coloured Ni-Ti archwire places a constant low-grade force on the teeth which straightens them comfortably and efficiently. There is no longer the need for painful tightening of stainless steel wires!
Advantages of Rapid Clear Braces
- Low-visibility –This fixed brace system is far less obvious than metal braces. Even the wires are tooth-coloured rather than just metal.
- Efficient –Treatment times are just as quick as any other orthodontic option available and generally much faster than clear aligners such as Invisalign.
- Value –This is the most cost-effective fixed brace appliance available.

Range of possible treatment
Ceramic braces can be used to treat most aesthetic problems from straightforward to complex.
Treatment Time
Treatment times are low, with typical cases taking around 4-9 months depending on the degree of complexity and amount of crowding. A more accurate estimation of treatment length is provided at the consultation.
How it works
Clear or Ceramic brackets are attached to the teeth. Flexible archwires are fitted into the brackets and slowly spread to a curved archform. This ‘elastic recoil’ gently pushes the teeth into proper alignment. The archwires are changed when needed throughout treatment. Additional forces can be created with clear elastic bands when required.
