What Makes the Best Dentist for Braces?
Not every dentist is qualified to perform orthodontic treatment. Here is what to look for when choosing a braces specialist in Kolkata:
Postgraduate orthodontic qualification (MDS)
Experience with multiple brace systems
Transparent pricing and treatment planning
Multispeciality support
Orthodontic treatment often requires coordination with other dental specialists, for example, Restorative Dentistry to address cavities before braces, or Endodontic treatment if a root canal is needed alongside alignment correction. A multispeciality clinic like Teeth Care manages all of this under one roof.

All Braces & Aligner Options at Teeth Care Dental
Our Consultant Orthodontist Dr. Jeet Singh recommends the most suitable brace type only after a thorough clinical evaluation. Here is the full range available across all our Kolkata branches:
- Metal Braces (Conventional Fixed Braces) Classic stainless-steel brackets are the most affordable and predictable option for moderate to severe crowding and bite issues. Covered under General Dentistry pre-assessment. Starting from ₹60,000.
- Ceramic / Tooth-Coloured Braces: Same effectiveness as metal braces but made with tooth-coloured material. Preferred by working professionals and teens who want a less visible option. From ₹65,000.
- Ceramic Clear Braces: A near-invisible fixed brace option combining the precision of ceramic with maximum aesthetics. From ₹75,000.
- Damon Metal Braces (Self-Ligating) Advanced brackets with built-in clips — no elastic ties. Reduces friction, speeds up tooth movement, and requires fewer adjustment visits. From ₹80,000.
- Damon Clear Braces Self-ligating system in tooth-coloured material — combines the speed of Damon with the aesthetics of ceramic. From ₹95,000.
- Clear Aligners / Invisible Aligners: Custom-made, removable transparent trays. Ideal for mild to moderate misalignment in adults who prioritise comfort and aesthetics. From ₹75,000 to ₹5,00,000 depending on case complexity. For full details on the aligner process, pricing tiers, and candidacy, visit our dedicated page on clear aligners in Kolkata. Patients who also need Cosmetic Dentistry such as teeth whitening often combine both treatments for optimal results.
Pre-Braces Treatment, What You May Need First
Some patients need preparatory treatment before braces can be safely placed. At Teeth Care, all of the following are available under one roof:
- Cavities or decay → Restorative Dentistry (fillings, inlays)
- Infected tooth / root canal needed → Endodontic Treatment
- Missing teeth requiring replacement → Dental Implantology
- Crowns, bridges or worn teeth → Prosthodontics
- Children needing early evaluation → Pediatric Dentistry
- Routine scaling before braces → General Dentistry
This is why choosing a multispeciality clinic for braces gives you a significant advantage — no need to visit multiple clinics before starting treatment.

FAQ - Best Dentist for Braces in Kolkata
Is an orthodontist different from a general dentist for braces?
Yes, significantly. An orthodontist holds an MDS (postgraduate) degree with 3 years of specialist training in tooth movement, jaw development, and occlusion. A general dentist with only a BDS degree has limited orthodontic training. At Teeth Care, braces treatment is led by Dr. Jeet Singh, a qualified Consultant Orthodontist (BDS, MDS), ensuring specialist-level diagnosis and treatment planning.
How do I choose the right type of braces?
The best brace type depends on your case complexity, aesthetic preference, lifestyle, and budget. Our Consultant Orthodontist evaluates all these factors during your free consultation and recommends the most suitable option, from affordable metal braces to invisible clear aligners.
How many clinic visits will I need during braces treatment?
Typically, every 4–6 weeks for adjustment appointments. Self-ligating (Damon) braces generally require fewer visits than conventional braces. Total visits depend on treatment duration, usually 12–24 months. Professional teeth cleaning every 3–4 months is also recommended throughout treatment.
What happens after braces are removed?
After braces or aligners are removed, a retainer is prescribed to maintain tooth position. Many patients also choose Cosmetic Dentistry services, such as teeth whitening, after completing orthodontic treatment to perfect their smile. Read more about post-treatment care and benefits of professional teeth cleaning to protect your results.
Do you offer braces for adults as well as children?
Yes. Teeth Care treats patients of all ages. Adults often prefer ceramic braces or clear aligners for discretion. For children, our Pediatric Dentistry team also performs early orthodontic assessments from age 7 to identify issues while the jaw is still developing.
Are there EMI options for braces at Teeth Care Dental?
Yes. Flexible EMI payment plans are available across all 5 Kolkata branches, making orthodontic treatment accessible regardless of budget. Speak to our team at your Consultation for details.
