## [Braces](https://www.dentaly.org/us/braces-teeth-straightening/)

If you’re thinking about braces for yourself or your child, you certainly have an important decision to make. There are many types of braces available these days, and while it’s good to have so many options, it can be hard to know what’s best for you. Invisible braces are popular because they are hardly noticeable, but they are not the only alternative to traditional metal braces. Browse our guides to find out more about the pros and cons of different braces, including how much they cost in the US.

## Dental Aesthetics

Many people are unhappy with their smile for one reason or another. If you’re self-conscious about teeth that are crooked, chipped, cracked or misshapen then cosmetic dentistry could be the answer. Or perhaps you’d just like a brighter smile, in which case you’ll need to choose between professional teeth whitening and at-home whitening kits. Find out about the various options and how much they cost so you can decide what’s right for you.

## [Dental Restorations](https://www.dentaly.org/us/restorative-dentistry/)

If you have a tooth that is damaged or missing, there are several ways it can be restored or replaced. Dental implants are the most durable way to replace a tooth, but also the most expensive. Dentures and bridges, while ore affordable, come with other downsides. Here you'll find information about everything you should consider before choosing your treatment.
