How does InBrace work?
Using advanced computer modeling and AI algorithms, the Smartwires are programmed with Dr. Scheer’s tooth movements. They use gentle force to start shifting your teeth into their final positions from the first day of treatment.
The Smartwires feature a locking loop design to secure the wires to the brackets. This helps to move teeth with less friction and without the need for monthly tightenings. Thanks to the innovative design of InBrace and the precise, digital treatment planning, you may see your new smile sooner, and you’ll have fewer visits.

Does InBrace hurt?
Are there food restrictions with InBrace?
That said, there are some foods to avoid with InBrace, including anything really hard, chewy, or sticky that could damage your appliance, such as nuts, pizza crust, gummy candy, taffy, and chewing gum. We promise, it will be well worth it when you see your new smile!
How do I care for my InBrace appliance?
Use fluoride toothpaste and a soft-bristled toothbrush to brush your teeth after meals and snacks, and floss once daily. Since the brackets are bonded to the back of the teeth, if you do develop discoloration or white spots on the teeth, they won’t be visible when your InBrace comes off.
InBrace is mouthguard compatible too! So, be sure to keep your appliance and smile safe by wearing a mouthguard while playing sports. And, of course, stay away from really hard, chewy, or sticky foods that could cause damage.
