Sapphire Braces

Sapphire braces (brackets), standing out with their clear and natural appearance, are frequently preferred by adults and individuals with aesthetic concerns. Sapphire brackets make orthodontic treatment more invisible.

What are Sapphire Braces (Brackets)?

Sapphire braces are produced from single-crystal sapphire material. Brackets made from natural sapphire are almost unnoticeable on the teeth thanks to their completely transparent structure. Sapphire brackets offer a much more aesthetic appearance compared to metal braces and blend in with the tooth color.

How are Sapphire Braces (Brackets) Applied?

1. Examination and Treatment Planning

The orthodontist examines the mouth and teeth structure. Panoramic X-rays and intraoral impressions are taken. It is determined whether sapphire braces are suitable.

2. Tooth Preparation

Tooth surfaces are cleaned, and a solution is applied to facilitate the adhesion of the brackets.

3. Bracket Placement

Sapphire brackets are individually bonded to the front surface of the teeth.

4. Archwire Insertion

The orthodontic wire passing through the brackets is placed. The wire is secured with elastics or clear ligatures.

5. Check-ups and Adjustments

According to the doctor's recommendation, check-ups are performed every 4–6 weeks, and the wires are tightened if necessary.
