Types of braces
The right braces for every smile in the house
From a first set of metal braces for a 5th grader to discreet ceramic for a high-schooler, we fit the appliance to the person — not the other way around.
Clear ceramic braces
Tooth-colored brackets that blend in — the confidence of fixed braces with a fraction of the visibility. A favorite for older teens and adults.
- Subtle, photo-friendly look
- As effective as metal
- Stain-resistant brackets
Early (Phase 1) treatment
For younger kids, a short early phase can guide jaw growth and create room — often making later treatment simpler, shorter, or unnecessary.
- Guides growing jaws
- Prevents bigger problems
- Free age-7 check-up

Questions, answered
Braces in Clawson — FAQ
How much do braces cost in Clawson?
Most full braces treatments at our Clawson office range from about $3,500 to $6,500, depending on how much correction is needed. Your exact price is set at your free consultation — and with 0% in-house payment plans you can spread it across monthly payments with no interest.
What age should my child first see an orthodontist?
The American Association of Orthodontists recommends a first check-up by age 7. Most kids don't need braces that early, but it lets Dr. Delgado spot bite or spacing issues while the jaw is still growing. The visit is completely free.
How long does braces treatment take?
Most patients wear braces for 12 to 24 months. Simple alignment cases can finish faster, while more complex bite corrections take longer. You'll get a clear timeline at your consultation.
Do braces hurt?
Getting braces put on doesn't hurt. You may feel mild soreness for a few days after placement and after adjustments — usually eased with soft foods and over-the-counter pain relief. It fades quickly, and we're always a call or text away.
Does insurance cover braces, and do you offer payment plans?
We accept most major insurance plans and file the claims for you. For any remaining balance, we offer 0%-interest in-house payment plans so families in Clawson can fit treatment into a real monthly budget. Considering clear aligners instead? See Invisalign in Clawson.
