Braces Treatment
Precision orthodontics to gently align your teeth and refine your bite — for children, teens and adults.
What is Braces?
Dental braces use brackets and archwires to gradually move teeth into their ideal position. At TruSmile we offer modern metal, ceramic (tooth-coloured) and self-ligating braces, planned and reviewed by an experienced orthodontist for a comfortable, predictable result.

Braces FAQs
How long does braces treatment take?
Most cases take between 12 and 24 months. Mild cases finish sooner; complex bites take longer. We'll share an honest timeline at your consultation.
Are ceramic braces as effective as metal?
Yes. Ceramic braces work the same way as metal — they're simply less visible because the brackets blend with your tooth colour.
What's the right age for braces?
Most patients start between ages 11 and 14, but adults of any age can benefit. An early check around age 7 helps catch issues that are easier to correct young.
Do braces damage teeth?
When fitted by an experienced orthodontist and combined with good oral hygiene, braces are completely safe and don't damage your teeth.
