Yonkers braces

Our Yonkers braces will give you a better positioned set of teeth and a smile that is not only cosmetically pleasing, but also healthier. Misaligned teeth are difficult to floss between properly, leading to a greater risk of tooth decay and gum disease. At Van Cortlandt Dental, we make three excellent options available for you, our valued patient: traditional metal braces, Invisalign, and ClearCorrect. Each has its pros and cons, and the ones which are most appropriate for you will depend on your unique circumstances, needs, preferences, and budget.

Traditional metal braces are familiar to most people. And while they have undergone many improvements over the decades, they remain effective in doing the job for which they were designed. Fortunately, the days of clunky, thick, heavy appliances are long gone. Our Yonkers braces are streamlined, more lightweight, and stylish, so you can feel more positive about wearing them. Metal is the best choice for some particularly challenging orthodontic concerns, and also if you prefer to have braces that are not removable, and thereby remove having to remember when to take them out and put them back in (as well as possibly misplacing them). Invisalign and ClearCorrect are both brand names for a system of clear plastic aligners. They have some benefits that are not possible with metal braces, most notably the fact that your aligners are invisible. You won't have to feel self-conscious about wearing them, or field anyone's questions or comments. That's a big plus, but there's more. Your aligners are removable. For the most part, they stay in around the clock, but you take them out to eat, brush, and floss. Because of this, your list of foods is not restricted at all by orthodontic treatment. Have all your favorites. And your oral hygiene will not be hindered.
