Jitendra H.Google review
Braces gently move teeth into better positions to fix crowding, gaps, and bite problems. At Orion Dental Specialities in Kothrud, every braces case is examined, planned, and managed by our in-house orthodontist, Dr. Anagha Kanade Deshpande. Most patients wear braces for 12 to 24 months, and treatment is paid across that time through direct clinic instalments. Your first step is a consultation, where we assess your teeth, explain which types of braces suit you, and give you a clear, itemised quote.
What Can Braces Fix?
Braces are not only about looks. Straighter teeth are easier to clean, wear more evenly, and help you bite and chew comfortably. We commonly use braces to correct:
- Crowded or crooked teeth that overlap or twist out of line
- Gaps between teeth, including a gap between the front teeth (see our guide to teeth gap treatment in Pune)
- Overbite and deep bite, where the upper front teeth cover too much of the lower teeth
- Underbite and crossbite, where upper and lower teeth do not meet as they should
- Open bite, where the front teeth do not touch when you close your mouth
- Protruding front teeth that stick forward
Not sure if you need braces at all? Our article on whether you need braces and whether they hurt covers the common signs.
Will braces change my face? Braces mainly change your smile, the support behind your lips, and how your teeth bite together, so many patients notice a more balanced smile and profile. They do not change adult bone structure such as cheekbones or jaw width. We explain what to realistically expect in our guide: does braces change your face shape?
Types of Braces We Offer in Kothrud
There is no single best type of braces. The right choice depends on your case, how visible you want your braces to be, your lifestyle, and your budget. Here is how the options compare.
Metal Braces
Stainless steel brackets bonded to each tooth and joined by a thin archwire. Metal braces are the most affordable and most robust option, and they handle complex tooth movements very well. Modern brackets are smaller and more comfortable than older designs, and children often enjoy choosing coloured bands. Best for: children, teens, budget-conscious patients, and complex cases.
Ceramic Braces
Ceramic braces work the same way as metal braces, but the brackets are tooth coloured, so they blend in with your smile. They are a popular choice for adults and working professionals who prefer a discreet look in meetings and photos. They need a little more care to avoid staining. Best for: adults and teens who want braces that are less noticeable. Compare the two in our metal vs ceramic braces guide.
Self-Ligating Braces (Metal and Ceramic)
Self-ligating braces use a small built-in clip on each bracket to hold the wire, instead of the elastic ties used on traditional braces. That means no elastics to change, smoother brackets, and often simpler adjustment visits. They come in both metal and tooth coloured ceramic versions. Best for: patients who want fewer elastic changes and easier cleaning. Learn more about self-ligating braces in Pune.
Early Orthodontic Treatment for Children
Some children benefit from early, guiding treatment while their jaws are still growing, for example to make room for adult teeth or to correct a crossbite. This often uses a simple appliance before, or instead of, full braces. Many other children simply need one round of braces in their early teens. We suggest a first orthodontic check by about age 7. Read more in braces for kids in Pune.
Prefer Something Removable?
For many mild to moderate cases, clear aligners are a near invisible, removable alternative to braces. Dr. Anagha is an Invisalign certified provider. See our Invisalign treatment in Kothrud page to find out whether aligners suit your case.
Braces Cost in Pune
The cost of braces depends mainly on the type you choose, how complex your case is, and how long treatment lasts. As a guide, these are representative 2026 Pune ranges:

Most patients wear braces for 12 to 24 months. Mild cases can finish in up to 12 months, while severe crowding or bite correction can take 24 months or a little longer. Your timeline depends on how far your teeth need to move, your age, the type of braces, and how closely you follow the plan, including keeping your adjustment appointments. We give you a realistic estimate at your consultation. For a month-by-month picture, see how long braces take.

Braces for Children, Teens, and Adults
Children and teens. Most braces start between ages 10 and 14, once most adult teeth are through. An early check by about age 7 lets us spot jaw and bite issues while your child is still growing.
Adults. You are not too late. As long as your teeth and gums are healthy, braces work at any age. Treatment may take a little longer than for a teenager, and many adults choose ceramic or self-ligating braces for a more discreet look. braces for adults

Looking After Your Braces
Good care keeps treatment on schedule. Brush after meals, clean around each bracket, avoid hard and sticky foods, and wear a mouthguard for contact sports. Broken brackets and missed appointments are the most common reasons treatment takes longer. Our braces care guide covers the daily routine, and our guide to retainers after braces explains how to protect your result once braces come off.
