Compare braces
Look at the appliance. Understand the differences.
Metal Braces
Metal bracesare strong, reliable and effective for a wide range of orthodontic cases. They are commonly used for teenagers and adults who need predictable tooth movement and bite correction.
Different appliances. Different practical choices.
| Option | What you see | What to consider |
|---|---|---|
| Metal braces | Metal brackets and wire | Visibility, cleaning and treatment needs |
| Ceramic braces | Tooth-coloured brackets | Discretion, care and suitability |
| Self-ligating braces | Brackets with a wire-retaining clip | System choice, fee and movement plan |
| Clear aligners | Removable transparent trays | Wear time, attachments and suitability |
Your examination and records determine which options are appropriate.
Types of Braces Available
APPLIANCES
Different braces options may be considered depending on age, case complexity, aesthetics and treatment goals.
Ceramic Braces
Ceramic bracesare less visible than metal braces and may be preferred by patients who want a more discreet fixed option. They can be suitable for selected teen and adult cases.
Self-Ligating Braces
Self-ligating braces use a different bracket mechanism to hold the wire. In suitable cases, they may support efficient tooth movement and easier hygiene compared with some conventional systems.
The best braces type depends on diagnosis, not only appearance.
The thinking behind your treatment
Braces are one of the most reliable orthodontic treatment options for correcting crowded teeth, spacing, bite problems, deep bite, overjet, crossbite, midline shift and complex tooth movement. At Dr. Sree, Specialist Orthodontist, braces treatment in Dubai is planned after a clear diagnosis of the teeth, bite, jaw relationship, facial profile and long-term retention needs.
The goal is not only straight teeth. A good braces plan should also support bite function, root control, smile balance and stability after treatment.
Bite concerns
What are the teeth and bite asking us to correct?
Beyond Straight Teeth: Braces for Bite Correction
CLINICAL FOCUS
Braces can help correct more than crooked teeth. They may be used for
Deep Bite
When upper front teeth cover too much of the lower teeth.
Open Bite
When front teeth do not touch properly.
Overjet
When upper front teeth sit too far forward.
Class II or Class III Patterns
When jaw or bite relationships affect function and profile.
Crossbite
When upper and lower teeth do not meet correctly.
Bite correction is important because a stable bite helps protect teeth, gums, jaw joints and long-term orthodontic results.
Braces for Complex Orthodontic Cases
COMPLEX CASES
Some braces cases require more advanced specialist planning.
This may include:
severe crowding
impacted canines
facial or dental midline shift
deep bite with gum trauma
gummy smile with vertical excess
These cases often need careful biomechanics, digital records, staged planning and detailed finishing.
relapse after previous braces
uncontrolled tipping from previous treatment
root torque problems
extraction space issues
complex bite correction

DIFFERENCE
Braces Vs Aligners
Both braces and clear aligners can be effective when used for the right case.
Braces may be better when:
Tooth movement is complex
Bite correction is significant
Root control is important
Impacted teeth are involved
Vertical correction is needed
Patient compliance may be difficult
Clear aligners may be suitable when:
The case is mild to moderate
The patient can wear aligners consistently
Removability is important
Planned movements are predictable with aligners
The decision should be based on diagnosis, not trend or appearance alone.
Can Braces Help a Gummy Smile?
In selected cases, yes.
If a gummy smile is related to tooth position, deep bite or vertical dental imbalance, braces may help reduce excessive gum display through controlled tooth movement.
Some cases may also require TAD-supported mechanics for better vertical control.
Your treatment plan
The diagnosis comes before the appliance.
Precision Orthodontics for Teens and Adults
INDICATIONS
Braces can be used for teenagers and adults when precise control of tooth movement is needed. For many patients, braces provide the control needed to correct both alignment and bite function.
They may be especially useful for:
Crowding, Spacing & Rotations
Open bite & Deep bite
Large overjet & Cross bite
Impacted teeth
Bite Corrections
Complex orthodontic mechanics
Diagnosis Comes Before Braces
DAIGNOSIS
Braces are an appliance. The treatment plan behind them is what determines the quality of the result.
Before recommending braces, Dr. Sree evaluates:
Tooth alignment & Bite relationship
Facial profile, Smile arc & Lip support
Jaw relationship & Gum and bone support
Root position & Long-term retention needs
This diagnosis-led approach helps avoid “straight teeth but unstable bite” outcomes.
Why Choose a Specialist Orthodontist for Braces?
CLINICAL STANDARDS
Braces are often seen as simple brackets and wires, but orthodontic treatment involves biological tooth movement through bone.
A specialist orthodontist evaluates more than the visible crowns of the teeth. Proper braces planning also considers root position, bite forces, jaw relationship, facial balance and long-term stability.
This is especially important in cases involving deep bite, overjet, crossbite, impacted teeth, gummy smile, relapse or facial imbalance
How to Choose the Best Braces Doctor in Dubai
When patients search for the best braces in Dubai, the right choice should not be based only on bracket type, price or speed.
A good braces consultation should explain:
the real orthodontic diagnosis
whether the problem is dental, skeletal or growth-related
whether braces are better than clear aligners for your case
how the bite, roots and facial profile will be affected
whether extractions, elastics, TADs or expansion may be needed
how the final result will be retained
Read the full explanation
Braces are not only about straightening teeth. They are used to control tooth movement, bite correction, root position, smile balance and long-term stability. The best braces plan for your case is the one that matches your diagnosis, treatment goals and biological limit
Braces for Teenagers in Dubai
GROWTH & TIMING
The teenage years are often an ideal time for orthodontic treatment because most permanent teeth have erupted and growth may still be active.
Braces for teenagers may help correct:
Crowding, Spacing & Rotations
Open bite, Deep bite & Cross bite
Impacted teeth
Bite Corrections & Jaw Balance
Facial Profile Enhancement
Dr. Sree plans teen braces with attention to growth timing, facial balance, school life, sports, hygiene and long-term retention.
Braces for Adults in Dubai
PRECESION& RESTORATION
Adults can also benefit from braces when they need controlled tooth movement or bite correction.
Adult braces may be considered for:
Crowding & Spacing
Relapse after previous orthodontic treatment
Bite problems
Tooth movement before crowns, veneers or implants
Gummy smile or deep bite correction
Adult treatment requires careful assessment of gum health, bone support, existing restorations and bite forces.
Braces and Facially Driven Orthodontics
Braces treatment should not focus only on front-tooth alignment.
A facially driven approach considers how tooth movement affects:
lip support
smile arc
facial profile
chin balance
lower facial height
smile width
overall facial harmony
This is especially important in extraction decisions, arch expansion, overjet correction, deep bite correction and adult orthodontic treatment.

Caring for Braces
Good hygiene is essential during braces treatment.
Patients are guided on:
brushing around brackets
flossing with orthodontic aids
avoiding sticky and hard foods
protecting enamel from white spots
using wax for minor irritation
attending routine dental checkups
reporting loose brackets early
Healthy gums and enamel are important for a successful orthodontic result
Retainers After Braces
Braces move teeth. Retainers help hold them.
After treatment, teeth can shift due to growth, habits, bite forces and natural aging. Retention planning is essential to protect the result.
Retention may include:
removable retainers
fixed bonded retainers in selected cases
long-term wear instructions
follow-up reviews
Retention is part of treatment, not an optional extra.

Your questions
Clear answers to your questions.
Are braces still a good option?
PATIENT INFORMATION
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Braces remain one of the most reliable orthodontic options, especially for complex tooth movement, bite correction and root control.
Are metal braces or ceramic braces better?
Both can work well. Metal braces are strong and efficient. Ceramic braces are more discreet. The best option depends on the case and patient preference.
Can braces fix bite problems?
Yes. Braces can help correct deep bite, overjet, crossbite, open bite and other bite problems depending on diagnosis and severity.
Can adults get braces?
Yes. Adults can benefit from braces, especially for relapse, crowding, bite correction or pre-restorative orthodontic planning.
Are braces better than clear aligners?
Not always. Braces may be better for complex cases, impacted teeth, vertical correction or significant bite problems. Clear aligners may be suitable for selected cases with good compliance.
Braces may be more predictable for complex tooth movement, deep bite correction, impacted teeth, severe crowding, root control and cases where patient compliance may be difficult. Clear aligners may suit selected mild to moderate cases with good wear-time discipline.
How long do braces take?
Many cases take 12–24 months, but treatment duration depends on complexity, bite correction needs, hygiene and attendance.
Will I need retainers after braces?
Yes. Retainers are needed after braces to help maintain the result and reduce relapse risk.
Can braces improve facial balance?
In selected cases, orthodontic planning can influence lip support, smile arc, bite relationship and facial profile. This depends on diagnosis and treatment goals.
Do you treat complex braces cases?
Yes. Dr. Sree evaluates complex braces cases including impacted teeth, deep bite, overjet, gummy smile, relapse, midline shift and difficult bite correction.
How do I choose the best braces doctor in Dubai?
To choose the best braces doctor in Dubai for your case, look for a Specialist Orthodontist who explains your diagnosis clearly, checks your teeth, bite, jaw relationship and facial profile, and gives realistic treatment options.
A good braces plan should consider more than straight teeth. It should include root position, bite correction, smile balance, gum limits and long-term retention.
The right braces doctor is the one who recommends treatment based on your clinical needs, not only the bracket type, price or speed.
What are the best braces in Dubai?
There is no single best braces type for every patient. Metal braces, ceramic braces and self-ligating braces can all work well when planned correctly. The best braces for you depend on your diagnosis, bite complexity, age, aesthetic preference and treatment goals.
Do braces results last permanently?
Teeth can shift after braces if retainers are not used. Long-term stability depends on retention, bite balance, growth, habits and natural aging. Retainers should be planned before braces are removed.
