If you feel uncomfortable smiling because of crowded or misaligned teeth, dental braces can completely transform your smile and your confidence.
At Smile Avenue Dental Clinic in Beirut, braces treatment is performed by an orthodontist and carefully planned with a prosthodontist when needed. This means your treatment is not only focused on straight teeth, but also on achieving the best function, balance, and long-term stability.
What Are Dental Braces?
Dental braces are a proven orthodontic treatment used to correct:
- Crowded or rotated teeth
- Gaps between teeth
- Bite problems (overbite, underbite, crossbite)
Braces work by applying gentle, continuous forces to move teeth into the correct position over time.
At our clinic, we offer:
- Metal braces (strong and effective)
- Ceramic braces (more aesthetic and discreet)
Who Are Braces For?
Braces are ideal for patients who:
- Have crooked or crowded teeth
- Feel their bite is not comfortable or stable
- Want a long-term solution for alignment
- Prefer a fixed treatment instead of aligners
Whether you are a teenager or an adult, braces can be adapted to your needs.
How Does Braces Treatment Work?
We follow a precise and modern workflow to ensure the best results:
- Initial Evaluation & Records
We take intraoral scans, professional DSLR photos (face, profile, and teeth), and request panoramic and cephalometric X-rays. - Treatment Planning
Your case is carefully studied by an orthodontist, and in complex cases, planned together with a prosthodontist for optimal functional and aesthetic outcomes. - Braces Placement
Brackets are placed on your teeth and connected with wires that will guide tooth movement. - Monthly Follow-ups
You will visit us once a month for adjustments and to monitor progress. - Treatment Duration
Treatment usually takes between 1 to 3 years, depending on your case. - Retention Phase
After braces, we place a fixed or removable retainer to maintain your results, with follow-ups every 3 to 6 months.
Benefits of Dental Braces
- Straight, well-aligned teeth
- Improved bite and chewing function
- Better oral health (easier cleaning)
- Enhanced facial aesthetics
- Long-lasting results with proper retention
- Increased confidence when smiling
Common Questions About Braces
Will braces affect how I look?
This is the most common concern. We offer ceramic braces for a more aesthetic option, and we help you choose the best solution so you feel comfortable during treatment.
Is braces treatment painful?
You may feel discomfort during the first 1–2 days after adjustments, but this is temporary and can be easily managed with paracetamol.
How long does treatment take?
It depends on your case, but most treatments last between 1 and 3 years.
Will it be hard to eat and clean?
At the beginning, it may feel different, but you will quickly adapt. We guide you with simple hygiene and dietary instructions.
Can teeth move back after braces?
Not if you follow the retainer protocol. Retainers are essential to maintain your results.
Is it a big commitment?
The main commitment is good oral hygiene and avoiding foods that may break brackets. We guide you through everything.
A Real Patient Example
One of our patients came with severe anterior crowding and rotated teeth. He was unhappy with his smile and felt his bite was uncomfortable, which even led to teeth grinding.
We treated the case using metal braces over a period of one and a half years.
At the end of treatment, his teeth were properly aligned, his bite was corrected, and most importantly, he regained his confidence and comfort in everyday life.
