The only option that integrates with your bone
A short educational block for top-of-funnel searchers who don’t yet know what braces involve.
Braces are a fixed orthodontic appliance used to gradually move teeth into correct alignment, fixing issues like crowding, gaps, overbite, underbite, and crossbite. Unlike removable aligners, braces stay on the teeth throughout treatment, applying continuous, controlled pressure through brackets, wires, and (in some systems) elastics. Modern braces at Aarogyam Dental are planned using digital intraoral scanning, allowing Dr. Sneha Pipalia to map tooth movement precisely before treatment even begins.

Who Needs Braces?
A self-identification block — helps visitors recognize themselves in a scenario and reduces bounce.
Crowded or overlapping teeth
Noticeable gaps between teeth
Overbite, underbite, or crossbite
Difficulty biting, chewing, or speaking clearly
Jaw pain or discomfort linked to misalignment
Self-consciousness about smile appearance
If any of these sound familiar, a consultation with Dr. Sneha Pipalia can confirm the right treatment path for your bite.
Types of Braces at Aarogyam Dental, Rajkot
Each type gets its own explainer — what it is, how it works, pros/cons, and who it suits best.
The most trusted and widely used braces system, using stainless steel brackets and wires (systems such as 3M Unitek and Ormco are commonly used). Metal braces are the most affordable option and are highly effective across almost all types of misalignment, from mild crowding to complex bite corrections.
Pros:
• Most affordable option
• Fastest, most predictable results for complex cases
• Extremely durable
Best suited for:
Patients wanting the most cost-effective, proven treatment — including children and teens.
Work identically to metal braces but use tooth-coloured or clear ceramic brackets, making them significantly less visible. A popular choice for adults and professionals who want effective treatment without the prominent metal look.
Pros:
• Much less visible than metal
• Same effectiveness as traditional braces
Best suited for:
Working professionals, patients attending frequent social or client-facing settings.
Self-ligating systems (such as Damon braces) use a specialised clip mechanism instead of elastic ties to hold the wire in place. This reduces friction, often allowing for fewer adjustment visits and, in many cases, added comfort during treatment.
Pros:
• Fewer clinic visits for adjustments
• Often more comfortable — less friction on teeth
• Easier to keep clean than traditional ties
Best suited for:
Patients with busy schedules who want a lower-maintenance braces experience.
Lingual braces are custom-fitted to the back (tongue-side) of the teeth, making them completely invisible from the front. This is the most discreet fixed-braces option available, ideal for patients who want to keep treatment private.
Pros:
• Completely hidden from the front
• Just as effective as traditional braces
Best suited for:
Image-conscious patients, public-facing professionals, performers.

Braces vs Aligners — An Honest Comparison
The reality is more nuanced than online debates suggest: both systems work well — when used for the right patient. Dr. Pratik Pipalia is trained and experienced in both, and the choice is always based on your bone condition, not protocol preference.

How Braces Treatment Works
A step-by-step timeline to reduce anxiety and set clear expectations.
Painless Dentistry, Powered by Technology
The following technologies are integral to the planning, placement, and prosthetic stages of every treatment at Aarogyam Dental.
CBCT 3D Imaging
A Cone Beam CT scan produces a complete 3D image of your jawbone — including bone density, height, width, nerve position, and sinus proximity. Removes guesswork entirely from the planning process.
Guided Implant Planning
The position, angulation, and depth of each implant are mapped out on your CBCT data before the surgical date. This precision translates into better outcomes, faster healing, and a more comfortable procedure.
CAD-CAM Prosthetics
Your crown, bridge, or full-arch prosthesis is designed and fabricated using computer-aided design and milling — producing prosthetics with a fit and finish not achievable by conventional laboratory methods.
Painless Anaesthesia Protocol
Every surgical procedure uses a painless delivery anaesthesia technique — the injection itself is virtually imperceptible. Patients consistently report being surprised by how comfortable the experience is.

Do's & Don'ts After Getting Braces
The success of your implant over the first few weeks depends significantly on how you care for the surgical site.
Do’s
Brush after every meal to avoid food trapping around brackets
Use an orthodontic-friendly toothbrush or water flosser
Attend every adjustment appointment on schedule
Use orthodontic wax if brackets irritate the cheeks
Don’ts
Avoid sticky, hard, or chewy foods (caramel, hard candy, ice)
Don’t skip flossing — use floss threaders if needed
Don’t try to fix a loose bracket or wire yourself — call the clinic
Don’t skip retainer wear once braces come off
We enhance smiles with expert care
At what age can someone get braces?
Braces can be fitted as soon as all permanent teeth have emerged, typically from age 10–14, though adults of any age can also get braces successfully.
Do braces hurt?
Mild soreness for 2–4 days after fitting or adjustment is normal, but braces should not cause ongoing pain. Over-the-counter pain relief and soft foods help during this window.
How long does braces treatment take?
Most treatments take 12–24 months depending on the complexity of misalignment and the type of braces chosen.
Can I eat normally with braces?
Most foods are fine, but sticky, hard, and chewy foods should be avoided to prevent damage to brackets and wires.
What's the difference between braces and aligners?
Braces are fixed and visible (except lingual), typically more affordable to start, and require no daily compliance. Aligners are removable, nearly invisible, but require 20–22 hours of daily wear. See our full aligners guide for details.
Are self-ligating braces better than traditional braces?
Self-ligating braces often mean fewer clinic visits and can be more comfortable, but traditional metal braces remain equally effective and more affordable — the right choice depends on your case and budget.
Do I need X-rays before getting braces?
Yes — imaging and a digital scan are used to assess tooth position, roots, and jaw structure before planning treatment.
Will I need a retainer after braces?
Yes — retainers are essential after braces come off to prevent teeth from shifting back to their original position.
Can braces fix an overbite or underbite?
Yes, braces are commonly used to correct overbite, underbite, and crossbite issues in addition to straightening crowded or gapped teeth.
How much do braces cost in [LOCATION]?
Braces at Aarogyam Dental start from ₹24,999, with pricing varying by type — metal, ceramic, self-ligating, or lingual. Book a consultation for an exact quote based on your case.
