Remove Braces from Photo Preview Your Smile Without Braces
The American Association of Orthodontists reports that approximately 4 million Americans wear braces at any given time, with treatment lasting 1 to 3 years on average. During that time, every selfie, portrait, and group photo shows metal hardware on your teeth. Our AI removes brackets, wires, and bands from your photos while generating natural-looking teeth underneath.

How AI Removes Braces from Photos
Our AI identifies orthodontic hardware on teeth and replaces it with natural tooth surfaces, preserving your authentic smile shape
Remove Braces from Photo: Traditional Metal Brackets
Traditional metal braces are the most common type, with silver brackets and steel wires visible across every tooth. They are highly effective for orthodontic correction but create a distinctive metallic appearance in photos that many people feel self-conscious about. Our AI identifies each bracket, the connecting archwire, and any elastic bands, then removes them all while generating clean tooth surfaces underneath.
The tooth reconstruction engine analyzes the visible enamel around each bracket to determine the person's natural tooth color, translucency, and surface texture. It then extends these characteristics across the entire tooth surface where the bracket was attached. The result is a natural-looking smile with consistent tooth appearance, proper light reflections, and realistic enamel detail.
Remove Metal BracesRemove Ceramic and Clear Braces
Ceramic and clear braces use tooth-colored or transparent brackets that are less visible than metal but still noticeable in close-up photos and under certain lighting conditions. The brackets can also stain over time, becoming more visible as treatment progresses. Our AI detects these less obvious brackets by analyzing the subtle texture and reflection differences between the bracket material and natural enamel.
Even though ceramic brackets are designed to blend with teeth, the AI identifies them through their shape, attachment points, and the wires connecting them. After removal, the tooth surface is reconstructed with the person's actual enamel characteristics, producing a seamless result. The AI also handles the thin connecting wires that are often more visible than the ceramic brackets themselves.
Remove Ceramic BracesErase Wires and Elastic Bands
Orthodontic wires and colorful elastic bands are often the most eye-catching elements of braces in photos. Archwires run across the entire smile, connecting every bracket, while elastic bands in various colors add additional visual complexity. In selfies and close-up portraits, these elements dominate the smile area and draw attention away from the person's face.
Our AI traces the archwire across every tooth, identifies each elastic band and its attachment point, and removes all of these elements while preserving the natural lip contours and gum tissue. The tooth surfaces underneath are reconstructed with attention to the curvature, spacing, and color variations that occur naturally across a set of teeth. The result is a clean, natural smile free of any orthodontic hardware.
Erase Wires & BandsPerfect Close-Up Smile Photos
Close-up smile photos, whether for social media, dating profiles, or personal keepsakes, are where braces are most visible and often most unwanted. At high resolution, every bracket, wire, and adhesive point is clearly visible. Our AI excels at close-up processing because the larger scale of the teeth in the image provides more detail for accurate reconstruction.
The AI handles the fine details that matter in close-ups: the subtle color variations between different teeth, the natural translucency at tooth edges, the way light catches enamel differently than metal, and the shadows cast by lips on the teeth. After removing all braces hardware, the reconstructed smile maintains these natural characteristics, producing a result that looks genuine even at full resolution.

Our AI handles every aspect of braces removal and tooth reconstruction
Bracket Detection
Precisely detects metal, ceramic, and clear brackets bonded to each tooth surface, making it easy to remove braces from photo files by identifying their exact boundaries for clean removal.
Examples:
Wire Removal
Traces and removes archwires, connecting wires, and spring coils that run across the teeth, regardless of wire thickness or curvature.
Examples:
Tooth Color Restoration
Reconstructs natural tooth color by analyzing the visible enamel around each bracket and extending it across the full tooth surface.
Examples:
Gum Line Preservation
Carefully preserves the natural gum line, gum tissue texture, and the boundary between teeth and gums throughout the editing process.
Examples:
Natural Enamel Texture
Generates realistic enamel texture including subtle surface ridges, translucency at tooth edges, and natural light reflections across the smile.
Examples:
Smile Enhancement
The overall smile appearance improves when braces hardware is removed, revealing the natural shape and alignment of the teeth underneath.

Braces Remover FAQ
Can the AI show what my teeth will look like after braces?
The AI removes the visible braces hardware and shows clean, natural-looking teeth. While it does not simulate the specific orthodontic alignment changes your treatment will produce, it gives you a realistic preview of your smile without metal brackets and wires. Many orthodontic patients find this helpful for staying motivated during their 1-3 year treatment period.
Does it work with all types of braces?
Yes. The AI handles traditional metal braces, ceramic braces, lingual braces, and visible wire retainers. It detects the brackets, wires, bands, and other orthodontic hardware regardless of color or material, and replaces them with natural tooth surfaces that match the surrounding dental appearance. Even colorful elastic bands are detected and removed cleanly.
Will the teeth look natural after braces removal?
Yes. The AI reconstructs natural tooth surfaces with realistic enamel texture, color gradients, and light reflections. It analyzes the visible tooth areas around each bracket to determine the person's actual tooth color and translucency, then extends those characteristics across the entire tooth surface. The result looks like a genuine smile, not a digitally altered one.
Can I use this for professional photos while wearing braces?
Absolutely. According to the AAO, approximately 4 million Americans wear braces at any given time. During treatment, you may need professional headshots, graduation photos, or event portraits. Our AI lets you create braces-free versions of these important photos so you can have both the original and a clean version for different uses.
Does it preserve the natural gum line?
Yes. The AI carefully preserves the gum line and only modifies the tooth surfaces where braces hardware is visible. The gum tissue, lip contours, and overall mouth shape remain exactly as they are in the original photo. The result is a natural smile with clean teeth and an unchanged facial structure around the mouth.
Is the braces remover free to try?
Yes. You receive free credits when you sign up, so you can remove braces from photo files and see the quality firsthand. Additional credits are very affordable, making it easy to process multiple selfies or portrait photos to find your favorite braces-free look. The per-image cost is far less than professional photo retouching.
