Whether you’re looking into first-time braces for your child or finally straightening your own smile as an adult, braces are a tried-and-true way to get great results. At Sunrise Dental Everett, Dr. Haider Kalhan offers both sleek, low-profile metal braces and subtle tooth-colored ceramic braces—making orthodontic care comfortable, encouraging, and convenient for the whole family.
Types of orthodontic braces
At Sunrise Dental Everett, we offer a comprehensive variety of modern orthodontic braces and alignment solutions tailored to your aesthetic preferences, clinical alignment needs, and lifestyle:
Metal Braces: Unmatched Durability & Precision
Traditional metal braces remain the time-tested gold standard in orthodontic care, celebrated for their exceptional mechanical strength, reliability, and universal corrective power. Fabricated from medical-grade surgical stainless steel, contemporary metal brackets are significantly smaller, flatter, and smoother than older designs, maximizing everyday comfort and minimizing cheek and lip irritation.
Metal braces provide comprehensive 3D control over tooth crowns and roots, making them exceptionally effective for complex alignment cases—including severe overcrowding, rotated teeth, impacted canines, and significant skeletal jaw discrepancies. For children and teens, customizable colored elastic ligature bands can be changed at every adjustment visit, making the teeth-straightening journey both fun and uniquely personalized.
Ceramic Braces: Discreet, Tooth-Colored Straightening
Clear ceramic braces combine the dependable alignment strength of fixed orthodontics with an elegant, low-profile aesthetic. Crafted from translucent, polycrystalline ceramic material that blends naturally with the specific shade of your tooth enamel, these brackets offer a subtle, discreet look throughout treatment.
Often paired with frosted or tooth-toned archwires, ceramic braces are virtually imperceptible in photos, professional workplace presentations, and everyday social interactions. The ultra-smooth ceramic surface resists staining and prevents soft-tissue irritation, making ceramic braces the premier choice for image-conscious teenagers and adult professionals who desire powerful, fixed orthodontic correction without noticeable metal brackets.
Invisalign® Clear Aligners: Invisible, Removable Flexibility
Invisalign® clear aligners provide a revolutionary, wire-free approach to smile transformation. Fabricated from proprietary SmartTrack® medical-grade thermoplastic, each custom-engineered aligner tray applies continuous, gentle pressure to guide your teeth into precise alignment based on high-definition 3D digital iTero™ scans.
Because Invisalign trays are completely removable, you can continue eating all your favorite foods without dietary restrictions and maintain seamless brushing and flossing routines. Their crystal-clear, low-profile fit makes them nearly invisible in person and on camera, delivering unmatched convenience, flexibility, and comfort for active teens and busy adults throughout Everett.
Lingual Braces: 100% Hidden Behind the Teeth
Lingual braces offer the ultimate in invisible fixed orthodontic treatment by attaching exclusively to the backside (lingual surface) of your teeth, facing the tongue. Because they are situated behind your teeth rather than the front, they remain 100% invisible to the outside world whenever you smile, speak, laugh, or take photographs.
Custom-contoured to match the precise internal contours of each individual tooth, lingual braces harness the continuous 24/7 corrective mechanics of traditional fixed brackets without altering the visible beauty of your smile. They are an outstanding option for adult professionals, public speakers, performers, and patients with demanding aesthetic requirements who want comprehensive orthodontic control and bite correction with absolute discretion.

Closes open spaces between teeth to create a balanced, continuous arch.
Realigns your upper and lower jaw overlap to improve chewing function and protect teeth from abnormal wear.
