Overview
Understanding braces
Braces remain the most powerful and predictable way to straighten teeth. Small brackets bonded to each tooth guide them along a shape-memory archwire that applies gentle, continuous force — moving teeth through bone a fraction of a millimetre at a time. Crowding, gaps, deep bites, open bites and protruding front teeth all respond reliably, in adults just as well as in teenagers.
At CareWell you can choose between classic stainless-steel brackets (the workhorses — smallest, strongest and most economical), tooth-coloured ceramic brackets that are far less visible in photographs, and self-ligating systems like Damon that use low-friction clips instead of elastic ties, often allowing longer gaps between adjustments. Dr. Anuj, our MDS orthodontist, begins every case with a cephalometric X-ray, OPG and digital study models, and walks you through the plan — including whether any extractions are genuinely needed — before you commit.
Treatment typically runs 12–24 months with a short adjustment visit every 4–6 weeks. After debonding, fixed or removable retainers hold the result — because teeth have a long memory, and retention is what makes a straight smile permanent.
Why patients choose it
The case for braces
Handles every complexity
Severe crowding, rotations and bite corrections that aligners struggle with are routine work for braces.
Most economical option
Metal braces deliver the same tooth movement as premium systems at the friendliest price point.
Nothing to remember
Braces work 24 hours a day. There are no trays to wear, lose at a restaurant, or forget in a tissue.
Discreet ceramic option
Tooth-coloured ceramic brackets blend with enamel — colleagues often don't notice them at speaking distance.
Healthier bite, healthier gums
Aligned teeth are easier to clean, reducing decay, gum disease and abnormal tooth wear over a lifetime.
Digitally planned finish
Cephalometric analysis and photo-series planning mean the end result is designed, not discovered.
What happens, step by step
Your treatment journey
No mystery, no mid-treatment surprises — this is the exact sequence we will walk you through at your consultation.
01
Records & analysis
Cephalogram, OPG, intraoral scan and a facial photo series. Dr. Anuj analyses skeletal and dental positions and presents the plan with expected duration and cost.
02
Bonding day
Brackets are bonded tooth by tooth in about an hour — painless, no injections. The first light wire goes in and you leave with a care kit and wax.
03
Monthly adjustments
Every 4–6 weeks the wire is changed or adjusted in a 15–20 minute visit. Expect 2–3 days of mild tightness after each one.
04
Finishing & detailing
In the final months, small bends and elastics perfect the bite and the way each tooth catches the light.
05
Debonding & retainers
Brackets come off, teeth are polished, and retainers — a bonded wire behind the front teeth plus a clear overnight tray — lock in the result.
