Top 5 Benefits of Iconix™ Aesthetic Braces for Teens and Adults
Posted on 07/15/2025
When it comes to getting braces, you have plenty of options to choose from. At Taddeo Orthodontics, we take pride in helping our patients find the perfect fit for their smiles and budgets. Dr. Ross Taddeo is always looking to implement the most effective braces, so you can enjoy faster treatment times and better results. One of the most popular options is Iconix, a stainless steel option that's known for being one of the most streamlined, aesthetically pleasing forms of treatment.
What Are Iconix Braces?
Iconix braces feature a sleeker, more refined appearance compared to traditional braces. They feature a champagne-gold color that makes them less noticeable and helps your smile look brighter. Many patients worry that braces will overwhelm their smiles, but with Iconix, you can feel confident that the braces don't take center stage.
Iconix braces also feature a slimmer profile than other types of braces, making them more comfortable to wear. This reduces irritation after application and during treatment. They also don't require any special maintenance, so you enjoy fewer trips to the orthodontist and get the same great results.
Less Noticeable Gold Wires Enhance Aesthetics
Your smile should always make you feel great, and the champagne tone of Iconix braces means they're often more desirable than traditional metal braces. Patients love the "white gold" look, and you can even enhance your braces with clear ligatures for a more transparent treatment.
The gold zirconia doesn't brush away or fade over time. Adults undergoing orthodontic treatment often find this enhanced appearance more practical for everyday life, such as work and social outings. If you have concerns over braces being too noticeable, Iconix is subtle and blends in with the natural color of your teeth.
No Risk of Food Being Trapped with Iconix Braces for Teens
One of the most common worries people have about braces is food getting trapped within them. Iconix braces for teens have a contoured design, making them easier to clean and reducing the risk of food getting trapped between them.
They're Very Durable
Ceramic braces, though durable in their own right, are more prone to breaking. Ceramic material is less durable than metal and can chip more easily. Iconix braces for teens are made of stainless steel, making them last longer and ideal for those with busy lifestyles.
No Risk of Stains or Discoloration
Unlike traditional and ceramic braces, Iconix does not discolor as time goes on. Wearers can enjoy a clean and polished look throughout their treatment. People who love to drink coffee, tea, or eat colorful foods can enjoy these delicacies without worrying about staining.
They're an Efficient Orthodontic Solution
Iconix™ braces provide the same reliable tooth movement as regular braces with the bonus of a subtle, better aesthetic. They’re the ideal solution for anyone seeking a discreet treatment. Book your appointment with Taddeo Orthodontics today and take the first step toward a confident smile!
