Clear Braces

Clear Braces can straighten your teeth without the use of actual fixed braces. To discuss a clear braces solution in the Bay City & Flint MICHIGAN area, please feel free to contact us to schedule an appointment.

For more information on various Clear Braces solutions, feel free to visit companies like Invisalign.

• Clear brace solutions use a series of clear removable appliances to straighten your teeth without metal wires or brackets.
• The appliances are made through a combination of Dr. Ruff's expertise and 3-D computer imaging technology.
• You wear each set of appliances for almost 2 weeks, removing them only to eat, drink, brush, and floss.
• As you replace each appliance with the next in the prescribed series, your teeth will incrementally move, week by week - until they have straightened to the final position Dr. Ruff has prescribed.
• You'll visit Dr. Ruff about once every 6 weeks to ensure that your treatment is progressing as planned.
• Total treatment time may average 9 - 15 months and the average number of appliances worn during treatment is between 18 and 30, but both will vary from case to case.
