What are Dental Braces?
Dental braces, also known as orthodontic braces, are devices used to align and straighten teeth, improving both functionality and aesthetics. At Laksha Care, we specialize in providing effective and customized orthodontic solutions. These braces consist of brackets and wires that apply gentle, consistent pressure to shift teeth into their correct positions over time.
Braces help address common dental issues such as:
-
Overcrowded teeth
-
Gaps between teeth
-
Overbite
-
Underbite
-
Crossbite
Modern braces are available in various materials, including metal, ceramic, and clear aligners, offering both efficiency and discretion.

How Do Dental Braces Work?
Braces apply consistent pressure to the teeth, gradually shifting them into the desired position. Components like brackets, wires, and elastic bands work together to achieve optimal alignment. Our orthodontists at Laksha Care will create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.
Treatment Duration
The duration of braces treatment depends on the severity of the misalignment, the type of braces, and individual compliance. On average, treatment takes 1 to 3 years. Post-treatment, retainers are necessary to maintain the new alignment
