NASA used invisible braces, or clear aligners, to enhance the oral health of astronauts during space missions. In microgravity, maintaining dental health is crucial, as traditional dental treatments can be challenging. Clear aligners offer a discreet and effective way to straighten teeth without the complications associated with metal braces, making them suitable for the unique environment of space travel.

Lingual dental braces are the preferred option for people who want their braces to be truly invisible. The biggest drawback of lingual braces is that they can be uncomfortable and result in cuts and sores in your tongue. Speaking can be difficult at first too. On the other hand, ceramic braces are less visible and look more natural than metal braces, as they blend in with the teeth. Ceramic dental braces do not stain, and are as strong as metal ones. However, ceramic braces require a longer treatment time and can be a good deal more expensive than the metal variety.
Masshealth dental insurance will cover braces with prior authorization. Depending on the dental plan and type of braces, up to 50% of coverage is available for braces. This determination is available once the orthodontist office submits your claim to Masshealth.
