Braces Style Guide: What Colors Are Best For You

For many people, choosing the right color for their braces can be a difficult process. However, despite the potential anxiety, choosing a special braces color can be fun because people have the opportunity to make a personal statement. Very few people consider wearing braces fun, so choosing a color gives people a chance to feel some joy until their braces are removed. People also have to be aware of the fact that once they choose a color for their braces, they will have that color for a few months. To help people choose wisely, here is an overview on how to select the right color for their braces.

Starting The Process

People should consider choosing a color that aligns with their favorite color. Some people prefer to choose a color for their braces that matches their eyes or hair. If someone likes darker tones, then they should consider a color such as orange. If They like lighter colors, then consider choosing blue, red, or green. The most important thing to remember is to be creative. Since people have to look at their braces on a daily basis, they should try to choose a color that has meaning in their life. Popular color combinations include pink and purple, black and red, and orange and blue.

People should avoid colors that make their teeth look yellow or make them appear to be decaying. White braces can become discolored within a short amount of time. Other colors that can cause teeth to look damaged are brown and black. Anyone who is wearing braces should make sure that they are regularly cleaning their braces.

Maintenance Is Important

If people do not take proper care of their braces, they can become food colored. Getting food stuck in their braces can cause serious damage to someone’s teeth. Avoid eating a lot of sticky foods. Before a person makes a decision, they should consult with Speaks Orthodontics. The staff at Speaks Orthodontics will let them try on different colors, so that they can figure out the right color that best suits them.

Such a wonderful place to get ortho. Dr. Speaks and his team are all amazing. I work for a periodontal practice and Dr.Speaks is highly recommended. I’ve never felt so taken care of in a practice! Chefs kiss :). Ritz it’s also amazing she’s so patient and does a really good job.

Chau P.
I’ve experienced 4 different orthodontists for my kids and Speaks is undeniably the best. Such thorough, smart and detailed care for my son. Can’t recommend him enough!

We come to speaks orthodontics for both of our kids more often than we would like. However, if you have to come someplace this often, this is a great place to visit. The staff is very friendly, they are accommodating with schedule changes and last minute issues. Dr Speaks is very charismatic and friendly!
Maddie C.
Insanely amazing. I had gone to 3 other orthodontists to get checked, and Dr. Speaks was the only one that was completely frank with what needs to be done and what the timeline would be. Other people told me it would take 6 months, which would not have solved my bite problem. Dr. Speaks told me 15 months, and although that is not what you want to hear, it was the truth and the team did a fantastic job. They also use angel aligners instead of invisalign which maintain their clearness throughout the process. I couldn’t be happier and I felt it was well worth the price. THANK YOU SPEAKS TEAM you all are the best!
Stephanie S.
Great place to get straight teeth for children, teens and adults. Personable and professional staff and exceptionally clean and welcoming environment. Both of my children have beautiful aligned teeth and I’m almost done with my treatment as well! We love Dr. Speaks and would recommend his orthodontic practice to anyone seeking a beautiful smile!
Cheresa C.
All 3 of my kids have or are being treated here. Great experience with each one. The front desk is diligent about keeping all appointments on time. Courteous when needing to adjust appointments. Dr Speaks and all the staff in the back are professional yet approachable. Dr Speaks is honest about his opinion and approach. I appreciate knowing I am getting services only what is needed and not getting “sold” extras. I would recommend 10/10
