Keep the following factors in mind when you are choosing what band colors to switch to during your next appointment at our dental office near you.

1. Complement your skin tone
For darker skin tones, we suggest bold jewel tones like sapphire blue, ruby red, and emerald green. Patients with fair skin might prefer cooler colors. Also, take note of your hair and eye color. If your eyes are a striking blue, why not choose bands colors that match them? Brown or green eyes? Try violet!

2. Color correct your teeth
Particular band colors can brighten the look of your smile. For example, darker band colors can result in whiter looking teeth. On the other hand, white and yellow shades can cause your teeth to look duller or like they have stains. Additionally, you may want to avoid brown bands as they can be mistaken for wedged food particles… which you wouldn’t want!

3. Highlight your favorite color
If your favorite color is orange, why not choose that band color? Love pink? We offer a few different shades! This principle applies to all colors! You can think of band colors for your braces as a form of self-expression.

4. Celebrate the season
There is no cooler way to ring in the season with fun band colors. Every season or holiday, you can spice up your look with exciting band colors to match. Christmas? Red and green! Summer? Ocean blue or mint green! The fun only continues. Not to mention, you can tie in your ligature color to a special event.

5. Metallicize
Matte is fashionable, but that doesn’t mean it should exclude you from sparkling elsewhere, yes, we mean with your braces near you. Gold, glittery silver, and metallic color options are a great way to make your smile shine, that extra bit.

6. Prepare for game day
Sports fans of all genders can enjoy alternating team colors. Flaunt your team spirit when you smile with fresh new band colors for your braces.
