Mild discomfort is normal for 2–3 days after placement or an adjustment. Over-the-counter pain relief and soft foods are usually enough.

How long do you wear braces?

Most treatments last 12 to 24 months depending on case complexity. A precise estimate is given at your first consultation.

Metal or ceramic braces?

Metal braces are more affordable and very effective. Ceramic braces are more discreet — their color blends with teeth. Our orthodontists help you choose.

Can I play sports with braces?

Yes. For contact sports, an orthodontic mouthguard is recommended. We explain everything when braces are placed.

What happens after treatment?

A retention phase with a removable or fixed retainer maintains results long-term.
