How long does orthodontic treatment typically take in India?

Most cases take between 12 to 24 months. Minor alignment issues can be corrected in as little as 6 months with clear aligners.

What is the cost of braces in India?

Metal braces start from ₹25,000, while premium clear aligners can range from ₹60,000 to ₹1,50,000 depending on the complexity of the case.

You may feel mild pressure and soreness for 2-4 days after the initial fitting or adjustments. This is easily managed with over-the-counter pain relief.

Can adults get braces or aligners?

Absolutely. Nearly 30% of our orthodontic patients are adults. Modern systems like Invisalign and Lingual braces are virtually invisible.

Are clear aligners as effective as traditional braces?

Yes, for most mild to moderate cases. However, traditional braces are still superior for complex jaw alignments and significant rotations.

How often do I need to visit the orthodontist?

For braces, visits are typically every 4-6 weeks. For clear aligners, you might visit every 8-10 weeks for monitoring.

Will I need to have teeth extracted?

Not always. Modern techniques and "Expansion" protocols often allow us to avoid extractions unless there is severe crowding.

Can I eat normally with braces?

You should avoid very hard, sticky, or brittle foods like popcorn, gum, and hard candy to prevent breaking the brackets.

What is the difference between a Dentist and an Orthodontist?

All orthodontists are dentists, but only about 5% of dentists undergo the additional 3 years of specialized residency training in orthodontics.
