What Are the Benefits of Orthodontic Treatment?
- Better oral health: Straight teeth are easier to brush and floss, lowering the risk of cavities and gum disease.
- Balanced bite & comfort: Proper alignment distributes chewing forces evenly, reducing tooth wear, chipping, and jaw strain.
- Improved aesthetics & confidence: Harmonized tooth positions, smile arc, and midline enhance facial balance.
- Clearer speech & efficient chewing: Correcting open bites, deep bites, or crossbites often improves function.
- Prevention-minded dentistry: Early guidance can minimize future extractions, surgeries, or complex restorations.
- Support for other treatments: Proper alignment boosts the success of implants, veneers, and crowns by creating stable spacing and contacts.
When is Orthodontic Treatment Required?
You might benefit from orthodontics if you notice:
- Crowding or spacing (gaps) between teeth
- Deep bite (upper front teeth cover lower teeth excessively)
- Open bite (front teeth don’t meet when back teeth bite together)
- Crossbite (upper teeth bite inside lower teeth)
- Protruding upper or lower front teeth
- Misplaced/impacted teeth (e.g., canines)
- Early or late loss of baby teeth affecting eruption paths
- Jaw growth discrepancies (small lower jaw, asymmetric bite)
- Difficulty cleaning teeth, frequent chipping, or bite-related discomfort
Kids & Teens: An initial assessment around age 7–9 helps identify growth concerns early.
Adults: It’s never too late; clear aligners and ceramic/lingual braces offer discreet options with excellent outcomes.
How Is Orthodontic Treatment Carried Out at Dr. Vikash Gupta's Ethical Dental Care?
Our ethos is ethical indication, conservative planning, and transparent communication.
Comprehensive Assessment
- Clinical exam and photographs
- Digital X-rays/OPG and, when needed, cephalometric analysis or CBCT (for impacted teeth/complex cases)
- Digital scans for precise records—no messy impressions
Diagnosis & Smile/Bite Planning
- Analysis of crowding, skeletal relationships, smile arc, airway considerations, and gum health
- Clear discussion of options (braces types vs. aligners), estimated timelines, and costs
Personalized Treatment
- Choice of metal/ceramic/self-ligating/lingual braces or clear aligners
- Use of elastics, mini-implants (TADs), or expanders when indicated for efficient tooth movement
- Periodic adjustments/aligner reviews focused on comfort and progress
Retention & Protection
- Custom retainers (fixed or removable) to lock in your result
- Guidance on hygiene, fluoride use, and—if you grind—night guards to protect enamel and restorations
The Orthodontic Treatment: Three Stages
Stage 1: Records & Planning
- Photographs, scans, X-rays/ceph, and bite analysis
- Finalize appliance choice, phases, and expected timeline
Stage 2: Active Treatment
- Braces are bonded or aligner series begins
- Periodic adjustments or new aligner sets (typically every 4–8 weeks)
- Mid-course refinements as needed for precision
Stage 3: Retention
- Delivery of retainers; review schedule to ensure stability
- Long-term check-ins to protect your result (especially for teens as growth completes)
Types of Orthodontic Treatments
- Metal Braces (Stainless Steel): Durable, efficient, and cost-effective; great control for complex cases.
- Ceramic (Tooth-Colored) Braces: Blend with teeth for a more discreet look; ideal for professionals and teens.
- Self-Ligating Braces: Specialized clips reduce friction; may allow fewer appointments in some cases.
- Lingual Braces (Inside Surface): Hidden behind the teeth; suited to patients wanting zero visible brackets.
- Clear Aligners (e.g., custom, lab-made): Removable, nearly invisible trays; convenient for eating, meetings, and hygiene.
- Interceptive Orthodontics (Kids): Space maintainers, expanders (RME), and functional appliances (e.g., Twin Block) guide jaw growth and tooth eruption.
- Surgical Orthodontics (Adults with severe jaw discrepancies): Orthodontics combined with orthognathic surgery for bite and facial balance.
- TADs (Mini-implants): Provide anchorage for movements that braces/aligners alone can’t achieve predictably.
We’ll help you weigh appearance, comfort, hygiene, lifestyle, and budget to choose the right path.

Top 10 FAQ About Orthodontic Treatment
How long does orthodontic treatment take?
Most comprehensive cases take 9–18 months; minor corrections can be shorter, complex jaw discrepancies longer. We’ll outline your personal timeline at the start.
Braces vs. clear aligners—what’s better?
Both work well. Braces offer great control in complex cases; aligners are discreet and removable. Choice depends on case complexity, lifestyle, and discipline with wear.
Will treatment hurt?
You may feel tightness/soreness for a few days after adjustments or new aligners. It’s temporary and manageable with soft foods and simple pain relief.
Do I need teeth extracted for braces?
Not always. We first explore expansion, IPR (slenderizing), and arch development. Extractions are considered only if space or facial balance truly requires it.
How many hours must I wear aligners?
Typically 20–22 hours/day, removing only for eating, drinking water aside, and brushing/flossing. Under-wearing prolongs treatment.
Can adults get braces or aligners?
Absolutely. Adult orthodontics is common and highly successful; we tailor plans for periodontal health and lifestyle needs.
How often are appointments?
Braces: approximately every 4–8 weeks. Aligners: 6–10 weeks on average, with remote check-ins possible for straightforward cases.
What foods should I avoid with braces?
Avoid very hard, sticky, and chewy foods (ice, hard nuts, caramel). Cut crisp foods into small pieces. Aligners are removed for meals, so food limits are minimal.
Will my teeth move back after treatment?
Teeth have a memory. That’s why retainers are essential. We provide a retention plan—often lifelong nightly wear is recommended for best stability.
Is orthodontic treatment covered by insurance in India?
Coverage varies. Some plans offer partial coverage, especially for functional indications. We provide documentation to support eligible claims.
