Orthodontists in India

Orthodontists complete three additional years of training in tooth movement, jaw development, and facial balance.
At Clove Dental, our Orthodontists in India use modern braces and clear aligners to correct misalignment, improve bite function, and enhance smile confidence for children and adults.

When to See an Orthodontist

Anyone with bite issues, crowding, spacing, or jaw discomfort can benefit from seeing an Orthodontist, whether you’re 7 or 47. Early evaluation simply helps guide growth in children, but treatment works at any age.

Signs You Shouldn’t Ignore

These symptoms should be evaluated promptly to prevent worsening alignment or jaw strain:

Teeth overlapping or rotating can worsen with age and make cleaning difficult.

Spaces may be harmless now but can affect bite balance and overall alignment later.

If the teeth don’t meet properly, it can lead to functional problems and jaw discomfort.

Overbite, underbite, crossbite, or open bite can affect speech, chewing, and jaw growth.

A sign of airway or jaw development concerns that need orthodontic evaluation.

Habits beyond age 3–4 can shift teeth forward and alter jaw shape.

Losing baby teeth too soon or too late may cause space issues and misalignment.

Could indicate bite imbalance or strain on the jaw joint (TMJ).

“Buck teeth” are prone to injury and often need early correction.

Uneven jaw growth or shifting may signal developing orthodontic issues.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an orthodontist and what does their MDS training cover?

An orthodontist holds an MDS in Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopaedics, three years of full-time postgraduate clinical training focused entirely on diagnosing and correcting malocclusion, tooth misalignment, and jaw discrepancies. Their training covers fixed and removable appliances, functional orthopaedic treatment for growing patients, clear aligner therapy, retention management, and the interaction between facial growth and dental alignment.

When do I need an orthodontist rather than a general dentist?

See an orthodontist for any misalignment beyond minor cosmetic concerns: significant crowding, spacing, crossbite, overbite, underbite, open bite, or jaw asymmetry. Also for adults with bite-related jaw pain or temporomandibular joint symptoms, children aged 7–10 where early interceptive treatment could simplify later comprehensive treatment, and any aligner treatment for moderate-to-complex cases where a general dentist's knowledge of tooth movement mechanics is insufficient.

What orthodontic appliances and treatments does Clove Dental's orthodontic team provide?

Metal braces, ceramic braces, lingual braces (completely hidden), Invisalign, Whistle, ClearCorrect clear aligners, removable functional appliances for jaw growth modification in children, palatal expanders for narrow arches, space maintainers after early tooth loss, and comprehensive retention management post-treatment. All treatment recommendations are made after a full clinical, radiographic, and digital 3D assessment, never based on the appliance's commercial value.

What is the advantage of 3D digital scanning for orthodontic treatment planning?

3D intraoral scanning replaces messy alginate impressions with a precise digital model completed in under 5 minutes. For aligner treatment, this data feeds directly into ClinCheck (Invisalign) or equivalent planning software, generating a virtual simulation of every stage of tooth movement. The patient sees a realistic preview of their predicted result before committing to treatment, enabling genuinely informed consent rather than approval based on verbal description alone.

At what age should a child first see an orthodontist?

The American Association of Orthodontists and most guidelines recommend an initial orthodontic evaluation at age 7, when enough permanent teeth have erupted to assess developing bite and jaw relationship. Most children at this age do not need immediate treatment; the assessment identifies the small percentage who would benefit from early interceptive treatment to simplify later comprehensive braces or aligner treatment.

Can orthodontic treatment be successful for adults?

Yes, without age limit. Teeth move through bone in response to controlled force at any age. Adult tooth movement is slightly slower due to bone density, but treatment outcomes are equally successful. Clove Dental's orthodontists routinely treat patients in their 30s, 40s, and 50s. Many choose lingual braces or clear aligners for aesthetic discretion. Correcting long-standing misalignment improves oral hygiene, chewing efficiency, and consistently improves confidence.

Why is wearing a retainer after treatment as important as the treatment itself?

Orthodontic relapse, teeth drifting back after treatment, is the most common cause of dissatisfaction with orthodontic outcomes and is entirely preventable. The periodontal fibres that stabilise teeth retain a 'memory' of the original position. Without a retainer worn consistently, this memory gradually re-establishes the original alignment. Clove Dental's orthodontists fit retainers at debonding and schedule retention monitoring to ensure results are maintained indefinitely.

What does orthodontic treatment cost at Clove Dental?

Metal braces: ₹25,000–₹40,000. Ceramic braces: ₹35,000–₹55,000. Lingual braces: ₹60,000–₹80,000. Clear aligners (Invisalign, Whistle, ClearCorrect): ₹40,000–₹1,50,000 depending on system and case complexity. Post-treatment retainers are quoted separately. A complete written treatment and cost plan, covering every stage from bonding to retention, is provided at the initial consultation before any treatment begins.
