Is there such a thing?
I saw fantasia berrino on t.v. and you could just barely see her clear braces when they did a close up. But I didn't see any archwire. You could only see the clear braces because they did a close up of her face. They were so white they looked like ghost braces. They matched her white teeth perfect. If I hadn't noticed her teeth before, I wouldn't have known that she was wearing braces. Even the archwire was completely invisible, because I didn't see one!
She must have just got them on because I seriously do not recall her having them during her season. In fact I distinctly remember the gap between her front incisors.
she's had them at least a year or so. Her teeth looked nice. On idol, they weren't so nice unfortunately. She probably did have white coated archwires.
I have a white wire with my ceramic brackets, it is hard to see unless your real close. I have a couple of pics showing the wire in my braces story post under Ives. I'll be updating those soon, had my first adjustment yesturday and I took some pics after.
The only draw back to the white wire is it chipped in one small spot, no big deal though, you can hardly see it unless you know where to look.
