Why Clear Braces?
We see gimmicky or highly-marketed technology come out all the time that is useless or doesn’t actually benefit you. Clear braces work great, look great, and allow you to enjoy your smile from day one. We think that’s a pretty big deal!
Want more options? We also offer Invisalign. See if it’s a fit for you.

No more metal!
Finally, no more big, metal brackets obstructing your smile. Clarity Advanced no longer has to use the big, bulky brackets that people associate with orthodontic care.
No more metal braces!
Our clear braces are made by 3M and are part of their Clarity Advanced line of braces. 3M has been making high-quality braces for a very long time, and we trust the current direction that this technology is taking. We couldn’t be happier to offer 3M Clear Braces as a great looking and effective option.
Most people don’t care about what braces their orthodontists uses. Why would they? Braces are braces. Well, that’s not entirely true. As you can see, the 3M Clarity System that Smith and Davis Orthodontics offers are an excellent balance of effectiveness, durability, and beauty.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do Clear Braces take longer
No.Today’s clear braces are designed to work just as efficiently as metal braces. Our treatment times have not increased since we stopped using metal braces.
Do I have to put colored rubber bands on my braces?
No. Our patients have the option of decorating their braces with colors or leaving them clear in order reduce visibility. It’s completely up to the patient. The clear braces look great with colors added to them. Without colors added, the braces are incredibly discreet.
Do Clear brackets cost more?
No. At our office we have never charged a higher fee for the use of clear braces or Invisalign
Are clear braces more brittle?
Not really. Technically they are more brittle, but this is not a bad thing. The forces that used to knock metal braces off the teeth now tend to chip a clear brace instead of taking it off the tooth. This is not dangerous at all. However the injection molded process used in Clarity Advanced braces makes them the strongest ceramic braces we’ve ever used.
