Braces Options
Metal Braces
Traditional metal braces are one of the most common types of braces used by thousands of people across the country. Metal braces are often the most affordable when compared to other teeth aligning options. These braces are also the best option for severe orthodontic issues.
- Extremely durable
- Known to straighten teeth quickly
- More affordable than other options


Clear Braces (Self-Ligating)
Shelling Orthodontics uses “Innovation Bracket” self-ligating braces, also known as clear braces. These braces are much less noticeable than metal braces because they use a specialized bracket that clips directly to the wire, which eliminates the need for rubber bands.
- Less noticeable
- Less likely to get food stuck in them
- Can experience faster treatment depending on your situation
Invisalign
Invisalign, or clear aligners, are a popular option among teens and adults because they’re virtually invisible. Over the years, Invisalign technology has made advancements to make these aligners more comfortable, fast-acting, and easy to maintain.
- Able to eat and drink whatever you’d like
- Superior comfort compared to metal and clear braces
- Easier maintenance and less visits to the office for adjustments
