DIY Braces are do-it-yourself “braces” that someone with no professional training is applying to their teeth, and they are just as dangerous as they sound. The team at Jaffe Orthodontics has seen the risks involved in these efforts to straighten teeth at home, and we want to advise our patients in Bristol and Barrington, RI that it’s just not worth it! Looking for safe, state-of-the-art orthodontic treatment for kids and adults?

Invisalign has swept the orthodontic world by storm over the last decade, making the case that its clear aligners are the best possible orthodontic treatment out there but is there more to Invisalign than just its advantages? Here at Jaffe Orthodontics, your local provider of orthodontics in Bristol, RI, we believe that our patients should know the truth about their orthodontic treatment, so you can make an informed decision about which path is best for you!

The pandemic has changed a lot of things about our lives, and not all of them for the better, but many people are searching for the silver lining in the coronavirus cloud and finding ways to improve their situation. For some that means setting up a beautiful home office to zoom in from, for others it means getting to hang out with your pet while at work, and for some it even means using the time away from people to get straight teeth with Invisalign!

At Jaffe Orthodontics, we’re passionate about helping our patients achieve healthy, beautiful new smiles in a way that makes sense for their lifestyle. And while traditional metal braces are a highly effective, reliable, and cost-efficient treatment for many patients, they’re no longer the only option. In fact, a revolutionary treatment alternative called Invisalign uses a fundamentally different technology to correct orthodontic problems – and it comes with a number of distinct advantages.
