Today, orthodontic treatment is not just about aesthetics — it also boosts confidence and significantly improves oral health. At Dentalland Clinic, we offer two main types of orthodontic options: Metal Braces and Clear Aligners, each with its own unique benefits and considerations.

Appearance:
- The metal brackets are clearly visible, which might not be suitable for those concerned about their appearance.

- It depends on the complexity of the case.
- Requires a dental visit every 3–6 weeks.
Care and Maintenance:

Which one suits you best?
Choosing the type of braces depends on your dental condition, lifestyle, and personal preferences. If you prioritize budget and reliable results, metal braces may be the right choice. However, if flexibility and aesthetics are important to you, clear aligners are a great alternative.
