Orthodontics & Braces in Bhaktapur | Hamro Dental Clinic

Are you looking to straighten your teeth and achieve a perfect smile? Orthodontics & Braces offer a reliable and effective solution for correcting misaligned teeth, bite issues, and jaw irregularities. At Hamro Multispecialty Dental Clinic in Bhaktapur, our specialized orthodontists provide comprehensive treatments using traditional metal braces, ceramic braces, and modern clear aligners.

What Is Orthodontic Treatment?

Orthodontic treatment involves using appliances like braces or aligners to apply continuous, gentle pressure to your teeth, slowly moving them into their ideal positions over time. This not only improves the cosmetic appearance of your smile but also enhances chewing function, speech, and overall oral health by making teeth easier to clean.

Who Needs Orthodontics & Braces?

• Individuals with crooked, crowded, or overlapping teeth.
• Patients suffering from overbites, underbites, crossbites, or open bites.
• Those experiencing difficulty chewing or speaking clearly due to jaw misalignment.
• Children and adults looking for a healthier, more confident smile.

What to Expect During Treatment

1. Initial Consultation: Our orthodontist will evaluate your teeth, take digital X-rays (OPG/Ceph), impressions, and photographs to create a custom treatment plan.
2. Fitting the Braces/Aligners: For traditional braces, brackets are bonded to your teeth and connected by a wire. For clear aligners, you will receive your first set of custom trays.
3. Regular Adjustments: You will visit our clinic every 4 to 6 weeks for adjustments, tightening, or to receive your next set of aligners.
4. Removal & Retention: Once your teeth are in the correct position, the braces are removed. You will be provided with a retainer to ensure your teeth stay in their new position.

How Long Does It Take?

Treatment duration varies depending on the severity of the misalignment. On average, comprehensive orthodontic treatment takes between 12 to 24 months.

Aftercare Instructions

• Brush your teeth after every meal and floss daily to prevent plaque buildup around brackets.
• Avoid hard, sticky, or chewy foods (like caramel, hard candy, or nuts) that can damage your braces.
• Wear your rubber bands or other appliances exactly as prescribed by your orthodontist.
• Attend all scheduled adjustment appointments to keep your treatment on track.
