Confident Smiles Start With Straight Teeth
A straight smile does more than boost your confidence—it supports better oral health, too. At Your Total Dental & Orthodontics in Temple, TX, we offer personalized orthodontic solutions to help align your teeth comfortably and effectively. Whether you’re exploring braces for the first time or considering clear aligners for a more subtle approach, our team is here to guide you every step of the way.
How Orthodontic Treatment Works
Orthodontic treatments use special appliances made from metal, ceramic, or plastic. These devices can be fixed to your teeth or removable. They work by slowly applying steady, gentle pressure to guide your teeth into place. Today’s braces are more comfortable and less noticeable than before. Many patients now choose clear options like ceramic braces or Invisalign® for a more subtle look.
Types of Braces We Offer
Traditional Metal Braces
Metal braces are the most common type and are made with strong stainless steel. They work by using brackets and wires to shift your teeth over time. You can even choose colored bands to personalize your look and make your smile your own!
Clear Braces
Clear braces are made from clear or tooth-colored materials, such as ceramic. They’re a popular choice for older teens and adults who want a less noticeable option. While they’re less visible than metal braces, they still provide the same great results.
Clear Aligners & Invisalign®
Clear aligners, like Invisalign®, are nearly invisible trays that fit comfortably over your teeth and are changed every few weeks to help guide your teeth into the right position. Because they’re removable, you can eat, drink, brush, and floss just like normal. We offer both Invisalign® and Invisalign Teen® to fit your needs.
