Orthodontic Treatment in Kolkata — Straighter Teeth at Any Age
A straight, well-aligned smile is more than a cosmetic asset — it’s a sign of harmony between your teeth, jaw, and overall health. Orthodontic dentistry focuses on correcting misaligned jaws, crooked teeth, and irregular bite patterns (malocclusion) that affect both function and confidence. Dentofacial orthopedics also deals with modifying facial growth. Explore orthodontic options that fit your lifestyle.
Personalized Orthodontic Care for Every Smile
Modern orthodontics goes far beyond traditional metal braces. Today’s treatments are comfortable, discreet, and designed to fit you. Depending on your needs and preferences, our orthodontists may recommend:
ORTHODONTICS
Metallic Braces
Durable and effective option for complex alignment issues.
Metallic braces are one of the most reliable and cost-effective orthodontic treatments of all time. These are made of high-grade stainless steel brackets and archwires to gently and gradually move your teeth into their proper place. They realign the jaw, treat crowding, bite irregularities, and straighten the teeth.
During regular checkups, our orthodontist simply shifts the teeth in tiny increments to ensure steady progress. Modern metal braces are more comfortable and compact than ever, making them a trusted choice for children, teens, and adults alike.

ORTHODONTICS
Ceramic Braces
Tooth-coloured brackets that blend in naturally.
Ceramic braces, also known as clear braces, are a perfect choice if you want effective teeth straightening without the noticeable appearance of metal braces. These braces offer the same size, shape, and tooth-colored or clear ceramic brackets that blend naturally with your teeth, making them far less visible.
They work just as efficiently as traditional metal braces to correct alignment, crowding, and bite issues. Ceramic braces are often paired with clear or white elastic bands to enhance their discreet appearance.
Our orthodontic specialists recommend ceramic braces for teens and adults seeking a balance of aesthetics and performance. Embrace the subtle advanced orthodontic solution.
ORTHODONTICS
Clear Aligners (e.g., Invisalign)
Invisibly, Comfortably, Confident solution for mild to moderate misalignments.
Another discreet, “invisible” orthodontic treatment alternative to traditional braces— clear aligners like Invisalign. They are detachable and just somewhat intrusive.
These transparent, removable trays gradually shift your teeth into place, typically moving them a tenth of a millimeter at a time.
Since clear aligners are removable, you can eat, brush, and floss comfortably without dietary restrictions. They also require fewer dental visits, making them a convenient choice for busy teens and adults. Clear aligners are ideal, particularly if dental alignment difficulties or spacing issues are not too severe.
ORTHODONTICS
Lingual Braces
Attached behind the teeth for an invisible treatment experience.
A less popular substitute for conventional metal braces. Unlike traditional braces, lingual braces are attached to the back (lingual side) of your teeth, making them virtually invisible from the front.
They provide the same level of precision and effectiveness in aligning your teeth, correcting spacing, and improving bite issues. Although they may take a little more time to adjust than outer-lined braces, the results are both aesthetic and functional.
Using digital scanning and custom-fitted appliances, our orthodontists ensure precise movement and enhanced patient comfort throughout the process.
ORTHODONTICS
Lingual Braces
A less popular substitute for conventional metal braces are lingual braces. The key distinction is that the brackets and wires are attached to the teeth’s backs, making them virtually undetectable to others.
ORTHODONTICS
Self Ligating Braces
Advanced brackets that reduce friction and shorten treatment time.
Self-ligating braces are similar to conventional metal braces with one important exception: instead of using elastic or metal ties to hold the wires in place, these braces have specialized inbuilt clips to the brackets that hold the wire in place.
This design reduces friction and allows teeth to move more freely. Result? Fewer adjustment appointments and shorter treatment time. Self-ligating brackets can be modified without having to replace anything because they serve as their own ligatures.
These braces are available in both metal and ceramic options, combining efficiency with aesthetic flexibility. Patients experience less pressure and easier cleaning compared to conventional braces.
ORTHODONTICS
Self Ligating Braces
Self-ligating braces are similar to conventional metal braces with one important exception: instead of utilising elastic or metal ties to hold the wires in place, the brackets themselves hold the wires in place.
The ligatures on traditional braces are typically adjusted at each adjustment appointment. Self-ligating brackets can be modified without having to replace anything because they serve as their own ligatures.
ORTHODONTICS
Invisible Braces (Aligners)
Another “invisible” orthodontic treatment option is clear aligners like Invisalign. They are detachable and just somewhat intrusive.
Teeth move using clear aligners a tenth of a millimeter at a time, requiring fewer dental visits. For teens and adults, aligners are a common alternative, particularly if their dental alignment difficulties are not too severe.
