Metal braces

Metal braces are fixed brackets and wires. The wires are surrounded all over the teeth and are noticeable to the public.

Clear Fixed Braces

Clear fixed braces are similar to metal braces. The only difference is clear brackets are slightly invisible and metal braces are visible. Clear fixed brackets are made of either ceramic or composite material.

Lingual braces

Lingual braces are specially designed to be bonded behind the teeth. These braces are painful and uncomfortable to the tongue.

Elencia Braces

Clear braces are invisible and new technology for teeth straightening. Clear braces are made using the most transparent medically approved Rain tree Essex plastic sheet to ensure clearness and stain resistance.

As an orthodontist , my experience with the templates of the Elencia aligners is quite exceptional and smooth. The templates are very soft , otherwise the stiff templates tend to fracture the attachment and cause discomfort the patient too.

I’ve been using Elencia Aligners for a few months now and I’m honestly surprised at how smooth everything has been. I wasn’t sure what to expect but the aligners are super easy to wear. I’m on my fifth set now and I can already see visible changes in how my teeth are aligned. If you're looking for clear aligners that don’t disrupt your routine, this is a great option.
