ORTHODONTICS is the process of straightening teeth with the help of brackets and wires. Any child or adult might require orthodontic treatment who has teeth that are:
   Crooked alignment
   Spacing
   Protruding
   Irregular 
   With gaps in between
   In the wrong bite

An orthodontic treatment involves putting a wire/brackets on your teeth and regular visits (once a month mostly) for tightening/changing the wire. Each sitting takes only 10-15 minutes.

Treatment time can vary depending on the case. On an average it takes about 16-18 MONTHS (1-1.5 years)

Different types of braces:

   Metal braces
   Ceramic braces
   Lingual braces
   Invisible aligners- Clearpath

   Metal braces: These are regular braces. They are the most economical orthodontic option. Children can opt for coloured florescent elastic bands.
   Ceramic braces:  They are tooth coloured braces and hence esthetic. As the treatment last for 1-1 ½ years many patients opt for ceramic braces.
   Lingual braces:  In this type brackets are put on the inner surface of the teeth. The wires are placed on the inside of the teeth which makes them invisible from outside. These braces are ideal choice for adults who are concerned about their cosmetic appeal during orthodontic treatment.
   Clearpath/Invisible aligners: These are a set of clear aligners which are virtually invisible. Removable during treatment and allows you to brush and floss easily after removing your aligners, Provides a clear, defined and virtual treatment plan from the start to the completion of treatment.
