Braces — straight teeth without compromise
Metal, ceramic and self-ligating braces from a trusted orthodontist. Treatment is planned on PaX-i3D Smart 3D diagnostics, backed by a written warranty and guided by your clinician at every stage through to debonding.
Book an orthodontist appointmentFixed orthodontic appliances remain the most proven and effective method of correcting malocclusion and tooth position. Unlike removable aligners, braces work around the clock: the patient does not need to remember to wear them, and the clinician maintains full control over the force and direction of movement of every individual tooth.
At iDent, orthodontic treatment begins with comprehensive 3D diagnostics using the PaX-i3D Smart CBCT scanner, which allows roots, bone and occlusion to be visualised in a three-dimensional model. Based on the CT data and a full photographic record, the clinician prepares a detailed treatment plan and reviews it with the patient before any treatment is started.
Who is suitable for braces
- Crowded teeth or excessive spacing
- Deep, open, crossbite or distal malocclusion
- Dental arch asymmetry or a shifted midline
- Pre-prosthetic or pre-implant orthodontics — creating space for a crown
- Teenagers and adults: no upper age limit provided the bone is healthy
- Relapse after previous orthodontic treatment
How treatment works
1
Diagnostics and treatment planning
The orthodontist carries out a clinical examination, takes a CBCT scan on the PaX-i3D Smart, produces a photographic record and takes impressions. A detailed treatment plan is compiled, including a prognosis for timing and the expected outcome.
2
Oral hygiene and tooth preparation
Professional hygiene — ultrasonic scaling and AirFlow — is mandatory before bracket bonding. A clean enamel surface ensures secure adhesion and reduces the risk of caries developing under the brackets.
3
Bracket bonding
Brackets are bonded to each tooth with a light-cured adhesive and connected by an archwire. The procedure takes 60–90 minutes and is completely painless. The clinician explains maintenance rules and any dietary restrictions.
4
Activations and debonding
Every 4–8 weeks the patient comes in for adjustment: the archwire is changed or tension is modified. Once the desired result is achieved, the braces are removed, the enamel is polished and a retainer is bonded to maintain tooth position.
Brace systems available at iDent
We offer four classes of fixed appliances — from classic metal to self-ligating ceramic. The choice depends on the complexity of the malocclusion, aesthetic preferences and budget. Your orthodontist will recommend the best option at the consultation.
- Metal braces — the most reliable and cost-effective option. Excellent for complex cases. Well tolerated by teenagers.
- Ceramic braces — tooth-coloured material that is far less noticeable. Ideal for patients who care about aesthetics during treatment.
- Self-ligating metal — brackets with a built-in clip instead of ligatures. Less archwire friction means teeth move more efficiently and visits are less frequent.
- Self-ligating ceramic — combines the aesthetics of ceramic with the advantages of the self-ligating mechanism. The least visible fixed appliance in our range.

After debonding, a retainer — a thin wire bonded to the inside of the teeth — is always fitted. It maintains the achieved tooth position and guarantees long-term results. A removable retainer tray for night-time wear is fabricated if required.
Active treatment typically lasts 12 to 24 months depending on complexity. Your orthodontist will give a realistic timeline estimate based on your specific clinical case at the first consultation.
Frequently asked questions
Average active treatment duration is 12 to 24 months. Complex cases involving severe crowding or open bite may take up to 36 months. The orthodontist will assess the timeline after 3D diagnostics on the PaX-i3D Smart and provide a realistic estimate before treatment begins.
In the first 2–4 days after bonding or archwire changes, the teeth may feel tender to pressure — a normal response to movement. There is no pain of the kind associated with dental procedures. Most patients adapt within a week and experience no further discomfort.
Without a retainer they can. That is why we always bond a fixed retainer on the inside of the teeth after debonding and fabricate a removable nightguard retainer where needed. If the retainer is worn as recommended, the result is maintained for life. The warranty extends through the retention phase.
