Who can have braces?
Braces are used for children, teenagers and adults. Whether they suit you depends on the position of your teeth, the health of your teeth and gums, and what you want from treatment. That is why every case starts with an examination.
- Crowded or overlapping teeth
- Gaps between teeth
- A bite where the upper and lower teeth do not meet comfortably
- Parents who want a child’s teeth assessed early
What happens at the first visit
You talk with the dentist about your concerns, she examines your teeth and gums, and she explains the options in plain language. The estimated cost and the likely length of treatment are discussed after the assessment, so you can decide whether to go ahead.
How long does treatment take?
It varies from person to person. It depends on how complex your case is and how carefully the braces are looked after. Many orthodontic treatments take somewhere between one and two years, but your dentist will give you an estimate that fits your own teeth.
Looking after your teeth with braces
Food can collect around brackets and wires, so brushing carefully after meals and cleaning between teeth daily matters. You will be shown how, and regular visits let the dentist check progress and adjust your braces. After treatment, a retainer is usually advised to help keep teeth in their new position.
Cost and instalments
Fixed braces start from PKR 80,000. The exact cost depends on your case and is confirmed after assessment. Instalment options are available for braces, subject to clinic terms, so ask when you book.
