Braces and Glasses: How to Rock Both with Confidence

Some people worry that wearing braces and glasses at the same time will make them stand out in the wrong way. The truth is, braces and glasses aren’t something to hide, they’re proof that you’re investing in yourself. Together, they can create a smart, stylish look that’s all your own. At Beecroft Orthodontics, we celebrate every stage of your smile journey and believe you should feel confident showing off who you are, both now and when your treatment is complete.

Why Braces and Glasses Can Be a Winning Combo

  • Braces show you care about your smile. Orthodontic treatment is an investment in your health and appearance, and that’s something to be proud of.

  • Glasses frame your face beautifully. The right pair can highlight your best features and complement your style.

  • The look is on trend. Social media and pop culture have embraced the “smart chic” aesthetic — making braces and glasses a unique, memorable style.

Style Tips for Feeling Confident

  1. Choose frames that flatter your face shape.

    • Cat-eye or oval frames can soften angles.

    • Round frames create a playful, artsy vibe.

    • Rectangular frames add a modern, sleek look.

  2. Coordinate your braces colors with your glasses.

    • Match your elastic colors to your frames for a coordinated look.

    • Try complementary colors for a fun pop.

    • Prefer a subtle style? Choose neutral or clear bands that blend in. (We recommend gray for metal braces and pearl for clear braces)

  3. Play with your overall style.

    • Hair accessories, earrings, or bold lipstick can help shift focus to your personal style.

    • For teens, matching braces elastics to a favorite outfit or school colors can be fun.

Pop Culture Inspiration

Celebrities and influencers have proven that both braces and glasses can be chic. From red carpet appearances to casual Instagram posts, more and more people are showing that the combination is all about confidence and personality.

Remember — Braces Are Temporary, Confidence Is Forever

Your orthodontic journey is just a small part of your life, but the benefits will last a lifetime. People notice your smile, your kindness, and your energy far more than any insecurities you might have.

At Beecroft Orthodontics, we make it easy to feel great during treatment. We offer fun colored elastics for kids to make each visit exciting, and latex-free rubber bands for patients with allergies — so you can customize your smile with comfort and style in mind.
