At Specialty Smiles we love helping patients express themselves through their orthodontic treatment. As North Miami’s top orthodontists we know choosing braces colors is a big part of the fun. We enjoy helping patients pick out the colors that match their style. With traditional metal braces you have the opportunity to personalize with colorful elastic ties. These small rubber bands hold the archwire to the bracket and are the perfect canvas for self expression. We update our color selection regularly so patients have access to the latest trends and combinations. Learn how our custom retainers keep your smile perfect after treatment. Light blue is one of our most popular colors in North Miami. This soft and pretty shade matches most skin tones and looks clean and fresh. Many patients choose light blue because it’s the color of water, so their smile looks cool and refreshing between appointments. Navy blue is another popular choice, especially among professional adults and teens who want a more grown up look. This deeper shade looks mature while still adding personality to the orthodontic treatment. We recommend navy blue to patients who want to make a slight statement while looking polished. Purple elastics have become super popular with our younger patients. This fun color allows for self expression while still looking good. Different shades of purple, from light lavender to deep violet, offer many options to fit individual style and skin tone.
The silver or gray option is a classic choice for patients who want a more subtle look. These neutral colors match the metal brackets and minimize the visibility of the braces. We recommend these to patients who want a low key approach to their orthodontic treatment. Red elastics make a statement and are popular with confident patients. This bold color represents energy and determination throughout the orthodontic process. We help patients pick the right shade of red that fits their natural beauty and their desired impact. Green is another great option, from mint to forest green. These earthy tones look fresh and natural. We help patients pick the most flattering shade of green based on their skin tone and personal style. Seasonal colors often influence our patients’ choices. We see more orange and black during Halloween, red and green during winter holidays and pastels during spring. We love helping patients match their braces colors to special occasions and celebrations.
Pink is a classic favorite among patients of all ages. From soft rose to magenta pink elastics add a fun touch to orthodontic treatment. We help patients pick the perfect pink that enhances their smile and looks natural. White or clear elastics are for patients who want maximum discretion. However we educate our patients that clear elastics can stain with certain foods and drinks. Our team provides detailed care instructions to help keep these lighter colored options looking their best between appointments. Combining multiple colors offers endless possibilities for self expression. Some patients choose school colors, sports team colors or favorite color combinations. We help patients try out different color combinations while still looking professional and good.
Black elastics provide a bold contrast to the metal brackets and are popular with fashionistas. This dramatic choice looks great to many. We discuss the visual effect of black elastics and help patients decide if this is the right look for them.Patients are often surprised by the psychological effect of color choice. Choosing braces colors can make the orthodontic process more fun. We get that and take the time to help patients pick colors that make them feel good and confident.
