Clear Braces in Georgetown, TX
Getting your teeth straightened doesn’t mean everyone has to know about it. Thanks to advances in orthodontics, you don’t have to choose between straighter teeth and a mouth full of metal. Dr. Bernuy offers clear braces in Georgetown, TX, using tooth-colored ceramic brackets that blend into your natural teeth. If you’re someone who wants to enjoy the benefits of braces but without the look of them, call Bernuy Orthodontic Specialist to schedule a consultation.
What Are Clear Braces?
Clear braces do the same job as metal braces, just with ceramic or tooth-colored brackets instead of metal ones. A wire threads through each bracket, applying gentle, constant pressure to shift your teeth into position.
Since the brackets are bonded on for the whole treatment, there’s nothing to take out at mealtime, unlike clear aligners. Most patients go with clear braces because they’re far less noticeable than metal, without giving up the reliability of a fixed appliance.
Why Choose Clear Braces?
Clear braces sit in the middle ground between visible metal braces and the daily discipline that clear aligners require. The brackets are fixed to the teeth, so there is nothing to lose or forget to wear each day.
The ceramic brackets are designed with patient comfort in mind, although some temporary soreness or irritation is normal as your teeth adjust.
What Can Clear Braces Correct?
Clear braces correct a wide range of alignment and bite problems. Crowded teeth get room to shift into place, and gaps close gradually with steady pressure. Clear braces also treat bite issues like overbites and underbites, along with crossbites and open bites.
Every mouth is different, so the exact plan depends on what your teeth need, something Dr. Bernuy maps out at your first visit.

What to Expect During Clear Braces Treatment
Getting started with ceramic braces at our clinic in Georgetown follows a clear path from your first visit through your final adjustment.
Your first visit includes a full exam of your teeth, jaw, and bite, along with digital imaging. Dr. Bernuy then designs a treatment plan around your goals and timeline.
Once Dr. Bernuy sets your plan, we bond the ceramic brackets to each tooth and place the archwire. Our team shows you how to care for your braces at home.
You will come back for periodic appointments where we check how your teeth are moving and make small changes to keep treatment on track.
Why Choose Us for Clear Braces in Georgetown, TX
Dr. Neker Bernuy’s path to orthodontics started in his mother’s dental office in Peru, where he first learned what it meant to help someone feel good about their smile.
After building a dental career in Peru, he moved to the United States and began the long process of requalifying — while learning English and working as a dental assistant and busboy to support himself.
He earned his DDS with Magna Cum Laude (Distinction in Research) honors from the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio and completed his orthodontic residency at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, earning a Master of Science degree during his three-year program.
Today, he is a board-certified orthodontist who focuses only on tooth movement and bite correction. That mix of training, hard-won experience, and real care for patients is why Georgetown families choose our practice for clear braces.
