Metal Braces

Traditional Orthodontic Treatment

At our Lancaster office, traditional metal braces are our most popular treatment option, and for good reason—they’re effective for any smile at any age. These time-tested braces remain the most common orthodontic appliance because they offer a reliable, effective, and economical solution. Unlike braces of the past, today’s metal braces are smaller, lighter, and more comfortable to wear, making them an even better choice for patients of all ages.

At Malaga Orthodontics, we believe your smile should reflect your unique personality. That’s why we offer a wide range of colors to customize your braces—whether you want to match your favorite sports team, outfit, or the latest trends. We’re also proud to provide the latest braces technology to children, teenagers, and adults throughout Lancaster, Amanda, Carroll, Thornville, New Lexington, Logan, and other communities in Hocking County.

Clear Braces

Clear braces offer a more subtle and distinct option compared to metal braces.

The difference with clear braces is that you get all the benefits of metal braces without the eye-catching metal brackets. These clear brackets are made of white ceramic to blend in with your teeth, offering an attractive alternative to traditional braces in Lancaster.

There are three key differences between Clear and Metal braces that you should be aware of when deciding which is the best option for your smile.

  • Clear brackets are made of ceramic, which is slightly more fragile than stainless steel. Although both options straighten teeth effectively, clear braces might be a better option for older teens or adults.
  • Your brackets won’t stain, but the adhesive holding them might. However, we replace the elastic bands covering your brackets at each appointment, so you don’t need to worry about discoloration.
  • Clear braces cost a little more than traditional metal braces, but our Malaga Orthodontics team will do everything we can to accommodate you and your budget.
