Metal and Ceramic Braces in Dubai
Teeth braces use a bracket and wire system to guide your teeth into a proper alignment. Conventional dental braces are extremely effective if your smile is slightly crowded or has severe tooth misalignment.
Today, you have the option to choose between metal and ceramic braces in Dubai. You can either choose either traditional metal braces or a more cosmetic ceramic clear braces style. Both work similar to one another, but one is more subtle and blends in with your smile. Ultimately it depends on your preferences as to which one you choose.
What to Expect
If you’re getting dental braces in Dubai, the process begins with a consultation and exam. Our Dubai Orthodontists will evaluate your bite and teeth alignment (including TMJ function) to determine whether any correction is necessary. If it is, we can discuss the best types of braces for your needs. From there, we’ll take a series of impressions and scans, then work up a treatment plan outlining the details.
The length of your time in orthodontic braces or ceramic clear braces will be about the same, regardless of which one you choose.
Most cases are completed in 12-18 months, but it ultimately depends on the extent of your tooth alignment needs. Wearing your appliances as directed will help to ensure a more efficient treatment experience.
During your consultation, our Dubai Orthodontists can provide you with an estimate of the length of your treatment. Everyone’s smile is unique, so it’s key to work with an experienced orthodontic provider to get an accurate timeframe.

Is Orthodontic Treatment Right for Me?
Dr. Joy Dental Clinic provides comprehensive orthodontic assessments for children, teens, and adults of all ages. If your oral health and function would benefit from a better aligned smile, we can recommend the best type of teeth straightening method for your age and lifestyle. Between metal brackets/braces and invisible braces, we have something for everyone.
Investing in traditional braces (metallic appliances) is a proven, straightforward way to straighten even the most crowded or misaligned teeth. Aligning your smile with normal oral braces can lower your risk of premature tooth wear, cavities, gum disease, and TMJ disorder.
We encourage you to reserve a hassle-free orthodontic screening to learn whether or not metal braces, ceramic braces, or another type of treatment is right for you. Screenings begin as young as age 7.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
How comfortable are ceramic braces?
Ceramic braces are one of the most comfortable types of braces for treating misalignment of teeth. When compared with normal braces(metal braces), ceramic braces are less noticeable and with minimal discomfort. They are easy to remove once you have completed the treatment procedure.
-
What are the treatment duration of metal and ceramic braces?
When compared based on the treatment duration, ceramic braces take longer than metal braces as they are likely to break off if not cared for properly. Also, they move teeth slower than metal braces. As for the duration, the treatment may take about 1- 3 years depending on the severity of the misalignment.
-
How do I keep ceramic braces from staining?
Anything that can stain a white t-shirt has the potential to stain your teeth, dental work, or ceramic braces. Drinking through a straw, rinsing your mouth with water after meals, and brushing at least 2-3 times a day will help to keep your smile bright.
-
What’s the difference between ceramic and metal braces?
The only difference between metal braces and ceramic braces is the way they look. Ceramic braces also use brackets and an arch wire. But the brackets are made out of tooth-colored ceramic to blend in with your smile instead of stainless steel. Depending on the type of braces being used, a cosmetic arch wire might also be available.
-
What is metal braces?
Conventional metal braces are made out of hypoallergenic stainless steel appliances that are safe to wear on your teeth. Each bracket is bonded to the front of its corresponding tooth using a special type of dental glue. Then the curved, rigid arch wire slips through the front of each bracket to connect the teeth to one another.
-
What are traditional braces?
Traditional orthodontic systems use metal braces made up of a series of brackets and wires. They are proven and effective for all ages and one of the most affordable options for teeth straightening.
-
How do metal braces work?
Whether you’re in traditional braces, clear ceramic appliances, or another type of fixed orthodontic system, these bracket and wire methods predictably move your teeth using applied pressure on specific points throughout your mouth. The curved arch wire that spans across your smile provides guidance for tooth movement, nudging each tooth into a natural curvature and alignment with its neighbors.
