Some people hesitate to laugh at all because their teeth are misaligned towards outside or are inwards while they laugh and they don’t feel confident enough to laugh openly, they become conscious because they feel everyone is watching them.The crooked teeth put a lot of negative impact on our personality. Not only this, due to crooked teeth, some words of speech create hindrance in correct pronunciation. Apart from all these personality related issue crooked teeth can’t be brushed properly as the brush can’t be properly adjusted. Obviously, if the teeth are not brushed in a manner, then the dirt and plaque will get deposited which can cause the tooth related other problems. Therefore it is very necessary to get rid of crooked ribs. So what’s the solution to crooked teeth?
Fixed Metal or traditional braces or wire in the teeth straighten them. Braces are made of metal brackets, elastic bands and an arch wire. Brackets are attached to the tooth and used as anchors for the braces. Arch wires are placed through the brackets and small elastic bands secure the arch wire in the bracket. Tightening the arch wire puts pressure on the teeth, gradually moving them into proper alignment. We adjust the braces periodically to bring about the desired results.
Clear braces are an aesthetic alternative to metal braces, and their popularity is growing, with clear braces, patients are provided with clear plastic aligners that often resemble mouth guards. While clear braces can be effective, the treatment time is not as quick as traditional metal braces.
Damon braces are self-ligating appliances, this system helps eliminating the usage of the elastic band which causes friction, which is why these braces are comfortable. These are pleasing because the brackets are less noticeable than traditional metal brackets.
Ceramic Braces are common these days because of their appearance i.e., in ceramic braces the braces are not prominently visible because of their color, which is same as of teeth and it surely gives the same results as metal braces.
Lingual braces, also called invisible braces, these are placed on the inner side of the teeth. They are as effective as traditionally placed braces, whether of metal or ceramic, but they are not visible from outside which is the reason they are more popular and expensive too.
Invisalign is a set of custom-made effective invisible plastic aligners, which are designed to shift your teeth into the proper position. About 2 invisalign new set are required in a month, repeating this until the teeth comes in correct position. Invisalign is intended to deliver the same benefits as traditional braces but the aligner trays are fully invisible, offering an aesthetic advantage. The aligners are removed for eating, brushing and flossing.
Braces are used by an orthodontist to help you improve the look and feel of your smile. There are several different types of braces to choose from, above.
The amount of time spent in braces will vary, depending on the individual patient, because every smile responds differently to treatment. Treatment times can take anywhere from six to 30 months, but most standard treatments last about 18 months.
Braces do not often hurt, though you may feel a small amount of discomfort for a couple days as your teeth, gums, cheeks, and mouth get used to your new braces.

No they don’t,Since we recommend using retainers after the end of treatment, to avoid the teeth to come back to their original position.
You must avoid eating hard sticky food like toffees, gums , sticky cheese etc and eat soft food.
Retainers help teeth to retain teeth in position after treatment so that relapse doesn’t happen…ideally they should be worn for about 3 years.
