Braces Treatment in Aundh, Pune
Metal and ceramic braces for adults and children — managed personally by Dr. Chinmayi Desale, MDS Orthodontics, at Braces & Beyond, Aundh.
Braces & Beyond, Aundh, offers metal braces and ceramic (tooth-coloured) braces for adults, teenagers, and children. All orthodontic treatment is managed by Dr. Chinmayi Desale (MDS Orthodontics, Dentofacial Orthopaedics). Braces are the most clinically precise option for moderate and complex cases — including significant crowding, bite correction, and extraction cases. The clinic is open Monday to Saturday at Wireless Colony, Aundh, Pune.
Metal Braces
Metal braces use stainless steel brackets bonded to each tooth, connected by archwires that apply controlled, continuous pressure to guide teeth into position. They are the most precise orthodontic tool available — capable of handling the full range of tooth movements, including complex rotations, extrusions, intrusions, and bite corrections that aligners cannot reliably achieve.
Modern metal braces are smaller and less bulky than older designs. Many patients are surprised by how quickly they adjust. The visible appearance is the main trade-off — but for complex cases, this is often the treatment that produces the best clinical result.
Ceramic Braces
Ceramic braces work identically to metal braces but use tooth-coloured or clear brackets that blend with the natural colour of your teeth. They're significantly less visible than metal, making them a popular choice for adults and older teenagers who want fixed-brace precision without the metallic look.
Ceramic brackets are slightly more delicate than metal and can stain if exposed to coffee, tea, or turmeric regularly. With normal care, they perform equivalently to metal braces.
Braces vs Invisalign: Which Is Right for You?
The choice between braces and Invisalign depends on your case complexity and lifestyle. Braces are generally preferred when:
- The case involves significant rotations or vertical movements
- Bite correction (overbite, underbite, crossbite) is a primary goal
- Extractions are part of the treatment plan
- The patient is younger and compliance with removable aligners may be inconsistent
- Cost is a meaningful consideration (braces are typically more affordable than Invisalign)

Treatment Duration
Most braces cases take 12–18 months. Simple cases with minor crowding can finish in 6–9 months. Complex cases involving significant bite correction or extractions may take 18–24 months. Your specific timeline is discussed at your initial consultation after a clinical examination.
