Orthodontic Treatment with Braces at Belur Dental Clinic

At Belur Dental Clinic, we believe everyone deserves a beautiful, straight smile. Our orthodontic treatments, including traditional braces and advanced alternatives, can help improve the alignment of your teeth, boost your confidence, and enhance your overall dental health. Whether you're a child, teenager, or adult, we offer customized solutions to fit your unique needs.

Why Choose Braces?

Braces are a proven, effective way to correct issues such as crooked teeth, overcrowding, bite problems (like overbites and underbites), and spacing issues. By gently moving your teeth into better alignment over time, braces help to:

  • Improve your smile: Straighter teeth contribute to a more attractive appearance.
  • Enhance oral health: Properly aligned teeth are easier to clean, reducing the risk of tooth decay, gum disease, and abnormal wear.
  • Correct bite issues: Braces can correct bite issues like overbites, underbites, and crossbites, improving function and reducing stress on the jaw and teeth.
  • Boost confidence: A straight, healthy smile can significantly improve self-esteem and social interactions.

Types of Braces We Offer

We provide a range of braces options to suit your needs and lifestyle, including:

  1. Traditional Metal Braces

The most common and reliable option, traditional metal braces use stainless steel brackets and wires to gradually move teeth into proper alignment. Modern metal braces are smaller, more comfortable, and more effective than ever before.

  1. Self-ligating braces

They are a type of orthodontic treatment that use brackets to straighten teeth without the need for elastic bands. They are similar to traditional braces, but use a different mechanism to secure the archwire. This has a Benefit that there is Less friction and pain than traditional braces, more streamlined treatment, less noticeable, shorter treatment time, and fewer adjustment appointments. 

  1. Ceramic Braces

Ceramic braces are similar to metal braces but use clear or tooth-colored materials, making them less noticeable. They offer a more discreet treatment option, making them a popular choice for teens and adults who want a less visible option.

  1. Lingual Braces

Lingual braces are placed on the inside (lingual side) of your teeth, making them virtually invisible to others. They work similarly to traditional braces but are a great option for patients who want a more discreet treatment.

  1. Clear Aligners (Invisalign)

For patients seeking a more aesthetic and comfortable alternative, clear aligners such as Invisalign offer a removable, nearly invisible way to straighten teeth. Custom-made plastic aligners are worn throughout the day and are changed every couple of weeks to gradually shift teeth into place.

The Braces Treatment Process

Braces treatment typically takes between 12 months and 3 years, depending on the complexity of the dental issues being addressed. Here’s an overview of the process:

  1. Initial Consultation:

Your orthodontic journey begins with a comprehensive consultation. During this visit, we will conduct a thorough examination, take X-rays, and discuss your goals and treatment options. Based on your needs, we’ll recommend the best type of braces for you.

  1. Treatment Plan:

Once your braces are selected, we’ll create a personalized treatment plan to move your teeth into their ideal positions. This plan will be based on the results of your exam and imaging, and will include the estimated duration of treatment and necessary follow-up appointments.

  1. Placement of Braces:

If you choose traditional metal or ceramic braces, we will carefully attach the brackets to your teeth and thread the wire through. If you choose clear aligners, we’ll take impressions and create a series of custom trays to fit your teeth.

  1. Regular Adjustments:

After your braces are in place, you'll return for regular check-ups (typically every 4-8 weeks). During these visits, we will adjust the wires, replace any rubber bands or brackets as needed, and monitor your progress.

  1. Final Results and Retainers:

Once your treatment is complete, your braces will be removed, and we will provide you with a retainer to help maintain the new position of your teeth. Wearing a retainer is essential to keeping your smile straight and healthy.

Benefits of Braces

  • Long-lasting results: Once your treatment is complete, you can enjoy a straight, healthy smile for life.
  • Improved bite function: Braces can correct bite problems, making it easier to chew, speak, and avoid jaw discomfort.
  • Boosted confidence: A straight smile can give you a newfound confidence, whether at work, school, or in social settings.
