He emphasizes using the latest technologies and offers patients self-ligating clear ceramic brackets made by Forastadent, including the TruKlear bracket. The TruKlear bracket is the first to be completely metal-free, using ceramic for both the locking device and body.

translucent and does not discolor. It enables wearers
to maintain their natural teeth appearance
throughout the orthodontic treatment process.
TruKlear is also ideal for patients who suffer from
nickel allergies and have an adverse reaction to
metal in the mouth. The ceramic brackets offer a
superior cleaning mechanism, with the slider opening
in the direction of the gums. This ensures that that the
locking mechanism is not damaged during chewing.
It also eliminates issues associated with food
remnants becoming lodged within the brackets and
causing unwanted bacterial growth.
