They are practically invisible, and even more effective than traditional braces because they don't use elastics on every bracket, so your teeth are free to move at all times to go into place

You can get metal brackets or plastic. What I did was have plastic clear ones on the top 6 and bottom 6 teeth, and then metal for the sides as you want them to be stronger there since you are chewing there and don't want to break them
