Straighten Your Smile with Braces & Clear Aligners

A well-aligned smile is not only about appearance—it also plays an important role in maintaining healthy teeth, gums, and a proper bite. Crooked, crowded, or misaligned teeth can make brushing and flossing more difficult and may contribute to uneven wear on teeth over time. Braces and Clear Aligners are effective orthodontic treatments that help straighten teeth, improve bite alignment, and create a healthier, more confident smile. At The Dental Arc Clinic, Sector 84, Gurgaon, Dr. Diksha Kakkar offers personalised orthodontic treatment using traditional braces and clear aligners. Every treatment plan is customised according to your dental condition, age, bite alignment, and smile goals to achieve safe and long-lasting results. Whether you are a teenager or an adult looking to straighten your teeth, braces and aligners can help improve both the function and appearance of your smile.

What Are Braces & Clear Aligners?

Braces and clear aligners are orthodontic treatments used to gradually move teeth into their correct positions. They help correct crooked teeth, gaps, crowding, bite problems, and other alignment concerns. Braces use brackets and wires that are attached to the teeth and adjusted over time to guide tooth movement. Clear aligners are transparent, removable trays that are custom-made to gradually shift teeth into alignment while offering a discreet appearance.

Types of Braces & Aligners

Different orthodontic options are available depending on your treatment needs.

Metal Braces

Traditional metal braces use durable brackets and wires to gradually move teeth into alignment. They are commonly used for mild to complex orthodontic cases.

Ceramic Braces

Ceramic braces work similarly to metal braces but use tooth-coloured brackets for a less noticeable appearance.

Self-Ligating Braces

Self-ligating braces use a specialised bracket system that reduces friction during tooth movement and may require fewer adjustments in some cases.

Clear Aligners

Clear aligners are transparent, removable trays customised for your teeth. They gradually move teeth through a series of aligners while offering a discreet treatment option.

Braces vs Clear Aligners

  • Braces and clear aligners both straighten teeth, but they differ in appearance and usage.
  • Braces are fixed appliances attached to the teeth and are suitable for a wide range of orthodontic cases.
  • Dental crowns cover the entire tooth and are generally recommended when a tooth requires additional strength and structural protection.
  • Clear aligners are removable, nearly invisible trays that offer a more discreet treatment option and can be removed for eating and brushing.

Braces vs Veneers

  • Braces and veneers serve different purposes.
  • Braces and aligners correct the position and alignment of teeth.
  • Dental veneers improve the appearance of the front surface of teeth but do not correct significant alignment or bite problems.
  • Your dentist will recommend the treatment that best addresses your smile concerns.
