What Are Colored Braces?
Colored braces are simply braces with colored elastics or ligature bands that are used to secure the brackets to the archwire. In the past, the bands were metal-colored; however, the bands are now available in a wide variety of colors, allowing you to personalize your braces.

Many kids, teens, and young adults choose cool colors for their braces to express their personality or style. This may make some patients feel more attractive and comfortable while wearing braces.

Are Colored Braces Uncomfortable to Wear?
Colored braces are no more or less uncomfortable than regular braces. The fitting of braces is not normally painful, but you may experience a bit of discomfort afterward as your teeth begin to align, caused by the pressure applied from the wires and elastic ligatures. You may also experience discomfort each time your braces are adjusted, and this may last for a few days. Over-the-counter pain medication typically relieves the initial pain, and dental wax may also help to prevent the braces from irritating the inside of your mouth. Our staff will provide you with detailed instructions on how to use dental wax at your application appointment.
