The Problem: Misaligned Teeth
Crooked or misaligned teeth, also known as malocclusion, can affect both your appearance and oral health.
- Aesthetic Concerns: Crooked teeth can impact your smile, lowering self-esteem and confidence.
- Oral Health Complications: Misaligned teeth are often harder to clean, making it easier for food particles to accumulate and increasing the risk of cavities and gum disease.
- Chewing and Speech Difficulties: Improper alignment can interfere with chewing and may even affect your speech.
- Jaw Pain: Malocclusion can lead to jaw pain, headaches, and overall discomfort.
What Are Braces?
Braces are orthodontic devices designed to gradually reposition and straighten your teeth. They are made up of several key components:
- Brackets: Small, square-shaped attachments bonded to each tooth.
- Archwires: Thin metal wires that connect the brackets and apply gentle pressure to guide teeth into place.
- Bands: Metal rings placed around the molars, serving as anchors for the archwires.
- Elastics: Rubber bands that provide additional pressure to address specific bite issues.
How Do Braces Work to Straighten Teeth?
Braces follow a step-by-step process to transform your smile:
- Consultation: Your treatment journey begins with a consultation with our skilled dentist, Dr. Shriyam Sharan. During this visit, your dental condition will be evaluated, and a personalized treatment plan will be created.
- Braces Installation: Brackets are attached to your teeth, archwires are threaded through them, and bands may be placed on your molars if needed.
- Regular Adjustments: You’ll need to visit the clinic every 4–6 weeks for adjustments. During these visits, the dentist will tighten or replace the archwires to ensure continuous pressure is applied to your teeth.
- Gradual Tooth Movement: The consistent pressure moves your teeth into proper alignment over time. The entire treatment duration can range from several months to a few years, depending on your specific case.

- Sticky foods: Popcorn, cheese, chewing gum, etc.
- Hard foods: Nuts, raw carrots, hard rolls, and foods that require excessive force (e.g., cracking walnuts).
