Ceramic Braces
A modern and discreet orthodontic treatment option
Personalized treatment plan by Dr. Angelakis.
Braces are the classic and consistently effective form of orthodontic treatment. This is a scientifically proven method, based on precise control of tooth movement and individualized planning of each stage, aiming at alignment, functional balance, and long-term stability of the results.
What ceramic braces are
Ceramic braces are fixed orthodontic appliances (brackets and wires) applied to the teeth and function in the same way as metal braces.
The main difference is that the brackets are made of ceramic material in a tooth-colored shade, making them more aesthetically discreet.

Work continuously throughout the day
Blend with the natural color of the teeth
Allow high precision in complex tooth movements
Suitable for a wide range of cases
Features of treatment with braces
Treatment with braces is based on precise and individualized planning, ensuring that every tooth movement is controlled and predictable.

Personalized treatment
Each plan is designed according to the patient’s specific needs.
Aesthetic options in braces
Aesthetics play an important role in orthodontic choice. Ceramic braces are designed to blend with the natural tooth color for a more discreet appearance.
Ligatures (elastic ties) also contribute to the overall look during treatment. They:
Ligatures:
- Apply controlled forces to the teeth
- Are available in clear or colored options
Clear ligatures are more commonly used when a discreet appearance is preferred.
Hybrid and short orthodontic treatments
In selected cases, treatment can combine different techniques for improved precision.
Hybrid treatments
Combination of braces with other orthodontic techniques when better control is needed at specific stages.
Short treatments
In specific indications, treatment time can be significantly reduced without compromising functional results.
Treatment duration with braces
Duration varies from patient to patient and depends on:
- Severity of the problem
Amount of tooth movement required
Gum and bone health
Patient cooperation and appointment consistency
Who braces are for
Braces are suitable for:
- Patients who need orthodontic treatment but prefer a more discreet option
Cases of crowding or spacing
Bite irregularities
Patients seeking an aesthetic alternative to metal braces
Treatment cost
The cost of braces treatment depends on case complexity, treatment duration, and the individualized plan.
It usually ranges from €1,950 to €3,200.
Installment payment options are available with flexible plans to suit patient needs.
Initial consultation
The process starts with a full clinical and digital evaluation to determine:
- Whether braces are the right option for you
How they will be applied in your specific case
Information always comes before decision-making.
