What are sapphire braces?

Sapphire braces are a fixed orthodontic system made up of transparent brackets made from monocrystalline sapphire. They are considered the most aesthetic type of fixed braces, because the brackets are completely translucent and blend in with the natural shade of the teeth.

Besides their appearance, this type of braces offers excellent control in tooth alignment, making them suitable for most orthodontic cases.

The advantages of sapphire braces

How treatment with sapphire braces works

01

Initial assessment

The orthodontist analyses the position of your teeth, the way you bite and your X-ray results, then draws up a clear treatment plan for you.

02

Fitting the braces

The sapphire brackets are bonded to your teeth and the archwire is fitted. Everything is done quickly and without discomfort.

03

Regular adjustments

At each check-up, the orthodontist adjusts the archwire to continue the alignment. You may feel slight sensitivity for 1–2 days.

04

Aligning the teeth

Over the course of treatment, your teeth gradually move into the correct position and your smile takes on a harmonious shape.

05

Stabilising the result

Once the braces are removed, a retainer maintains the alignment achieved and protects the final result.
