Can you straighten teeth without braces?

There is a misconception that straightening your malaligned teeth is possible only through metal braces. But, that is not true. There are other ways to straighten misaligned teeth without using metal or acrylic braces. Visit the best orthodontist in India to get a complete checkup and decide your treatment plan.

  • Invisalign is customized clear plastic trays that are used in the correction of misalignment of teeth. Invisalign in India is a modern technology introduced in India in recent times. Invisalign is preferred over conventional braces as they are painless, removable, and less time-consuming. It is advised to use the trays for 22 hours a day for maximum benefits; they can be removed during eating or oral hygiene. These Invisalign trays must be replaced every 20 days without fail. Invisalign treatment also offers a fixed treatment plan with an estimated time of the treatment.
  • Veneers are the instant treatment options for smile correction. They help in the correction of space or spaces in between teeth, discoloration, and chipped or cracked teeth. However, they are semi-permanent which requires the trimming of the outer enamel layer for the veneer to fit to the surface of the tooth. Visit the best dentist in India to get your oral checkup and know which treatment option is best for your oral condition.
  • Dental crowns may not necessarily aid in straightening the teeth but can help in closing spaces in between the teeth. Dental crowns can be used in cases where there needs change in shape, color, and size of the teeth.
  • Dental bonding is also an alternative treatment option in cases of minor misalignments. They are acrylic-based and do not require any preparation of the tooth. Dental bonding can be done to close the gaps between the teeth or can alter the shape of the teeth creating a straight appearance.

  • Retainers are generally used as additional aids after conventional braces treatment. They are removable, less noticeable, and are used in minor corrections in adults. Palatal expanders are generally used in children to fix a crossbite or as space retainers.
