Which Is Right for You?
Braces & Aligners vs Aligners Only
Both options straighten teeth and improve bite, but differ in visibility, removability, range of movements and how much patient cooperation they need.
Fixed braces use brackets and wires, work continuously, and are better for complex rotations, deep bites and large space closures. They allow the orthodontist to make small wire bends chairside, but they are visible on teeth.
Aligners use a series of removable trays, are very discreet and suit mild to moderate crowding or spacing. They require disciplined full time wear, tray changes on schedule and aligner safe diet habits, which not everyone finds convenient.
Many Kompally adults consider aligners for appearance and fixed braces for more demanding corrections, sometimes combining both during treatment.
The orthodontist confirms the right option after clinical examination, photographs and scans, often using Invisible Aligners simulations to explain choices.
