Braces in Peshawar
to Straighten Your Teeth
Braces are the most reliable way to straighten crooked, crowded or gapped teeth and correct the way your jaws bite together. Small brackets are fixed to the teeth and a wire moves them gradually into line over the course of treatment. At Cosmetic Club N Clinic in Peshawar our braces are fitted and managed by qualified dental surgeons.

Types of Braces We Fit
| Criterion | Metal braces | Ceramic braces | Self ligating braces |
|---|---|---|---|
| Visibility | Visible metal brackets | Tooth coloured, less visible | Metal or clear, smaller |
| Best for | All cases, best value | Adults wanting discretion | Fewer visits, gentler movement |
| Comfort | Standard | Standard | No elastic ties, less friction |
| Adjustment visits | Monthly | Monthly | Often fewer |
| Price | Lowest | Higher | Higher |
Metal braces are the most effective and the best value, and they handle every case including complex ones. Ceramic braces use tooth coloured brackets that blend in, which suits adults who want the correction without the obvious metal. Self ligating braces hold the wire without elastic ties, which can mean gentler movement and fewer visits. We recommend the type that fits your case, your look and your budget, not the most expensive by default.
Indications
What Braces Fix
Braces correct far more than crooked teeth, and the assessment tells you exactly what yours will do.
- Crowded teeth that overlap because there is not enough room
- Gaps and spacing between the teeth
- Overbite, where the upper front teeth sit too far over the lower
- Underbite, where the lower teeth sit in front of the upper
- Crossbite, where the top and bottom teeth do not meet correctly
- Protruding front teeth that stick out and are prone to injury
- A crooked or uneven smile that makes cleaning harder and wears teeth unevenly
Straightening is not only cosmetic. Teeth that meet correctly are easier to clean, less prone to decay and gum disease, and wear evenly, so braces protect the teeth as well as improve the smile.
Honest comparison
Braces or Clear Aligners
Both straighten teeth, and the honest choice depends on your case and your discipline. We offer both, so the recommendation follows your teeth rather than the higher price.
| Criterion | Braces | Clear aligners |
|---|---|---|
| Appearance | Fixed brackets, visible or tooth coloured | Near invisible, removable |
| Fixed or removable | Fixed on, always working | Removable, worn 22 hours a day |
| Best for | All cases, including complex | Mild to moderate cases |
| Depends on discipline | No, they are always on | Yes, must be worn as told |
| Eating | Some foods to avoid | Taken out to eat |
| Price | Often lower | Often higher |
Braces are fixed to the teeth, so they work whether or not you remember them, which makes them the surer choice for complex crowding and bite problems and for younger patients. Clear aligners are removable and nearly invisible, which suits adults with milder cases who will wear them as instructed. We will tell you honestly which your case needs, and we will not push braces where aligners would do the job, or the reverse.
No age limit
Braces for Adults and Children
Adults
There is no age limit on straightening teeth. Adults make up a growing share of our braces patients, and ceramic and self ligating braces make the treatment far more discreet than it used to be, so wanting a straighter smile later in life is no reason to go without.
Children
For children, the right time to start depends on how the teeth and jaw are developing, and we assess this from around the age of seven so that any problem is caught early, even if treatment itself begins later. Braces on a growing jaw can guide teeth into place more easily than waiting, which is why an early orthodontic check is worth it even when nothing needs doing yet.
Looking after them
Living With Braces
Braces need a little care and it becomes routine quickly. Brush after meals to keep the brackets clean, because food traps around them and decay starts there if it is left. Avoid very hard and sticky foods that can pull a bracket off, and use the orthodontic wax we give you if a bracket rubs at first. Keep your scaling and check ups through treatment so the teeth and gums stay healthy while the braces do their work. The little discomfort after each adjustment settles within a day or two.

Patient reviews
Patient Reviews
"I was in my thirties and put off braces for years because I did not want a mouth full of metal. They fitted ceramic braces that barely showed and were honest that it would take about eighteen months. It was worth every month."
Sundas K., Peshawar Ceramic braces
"My crowding was mild and I expected to be sold full braces. Instead they said clear aligners would do the job in my case and explained why. That honesty is the reason I went ahead with them."
Bilal A., Mardan Referred to clear aligners
Step by step
How Braces Treatment Works
The process is straightforward and paced over regular short visits. First the teeth and bite are assessed, with an X-ray where needed, and a treatment plan and timeline are agreed. The brackets are then fixed to the teeth and connected with a wire, which is painless to fit. Every few weeks you come in for a short adjustment, where the wire is changed or tightened to keep the teeth moving, and this is the part of treatment that runs across the months. When the teeth are in their final position the braces come off, and a retainer, either a thin wire bonded behind the teeth or a removable one, holds them there. The retainer matters as much as the braces, because teeth drift back without it.

Frequently Asked Questions About Braces
Most treatment takes twelve to twenty four months, with minor cases finishing sooner and complex bite problems taking longer. The timeline is estimated at your assessment and depends on how far the teeth have to move and how well the plan is followed.
Fitting braces is painless. There is some tightness and tenderness for a day or two after each adjustment as the teeth move, which ordinary painkillers ease, and orthodontic wax stops any bracket rubbing. Most patients find it far more manageable than they expected.
Metal braces are the most effective and the best value and handle every case. Ceramic braces use tooth coloured brackets that blend in, which suits adults who want the correction to be discreet. Both straighten teeth the same way. We recommend the one that fits your case and your budget.
Braces are fixed on and work whether or not you remember them, which makes them the surer choice for complex cases and younger patients. Clear aligners are removable and nearly invisible and suit milder cases in adults who will wear them as told. We assess your teeth and recommend the one that genuinely fits.
Yes. Braces correct the bite as well as straighten the teeth, including overbite, underbite and crossbite, by moving the teeth into a position where the jaws meet correctly. Bite correction is one of the main reasons braces are recommended, not just appearance.
Yes, always. Teeth naturally drift back towards where they were, so a retainer, either a thin wire bonded behind the teeth or a removable one, holds the result. Wearing the retainer as instructed is what makes the straightening last, and it is part of the plan from the start.
