Many people with crooked or unaligned teeth challenges in Thika town and the larger Kiambu County ask; what is the average cost of getting a brace? At Dove Dental Clinic, we offer affordable braces for you.

First, what is Braces for Teeth?
Dental braces are a way of aligning, straightening or moving your teeth, to improve overlapping or crooked teeth on how they look and how they work.

So, how much do braces cost in Thika?
The costs of braces do vary considerably, depending on the type, underlying condition, the prescribed treatment by orthodontics, the appliances used and the specialised nature of the treatment used for your braces. More severe cases of misaligned teeth need more specialized braces, which will impact on the cost. Worry not. We offer various dental braces, depending on preferences and underlying conditions, at the most affordable rates.

Types of Dental Braces we offer include
• Lingual
• Ceramic braces
• Inman aligners
• Invisible braces
• Friction-free
• Damon Metal or Ceramic with brackets bonded to the teeth

Some also ask, how long does it take for teeth to move with braces?
Depending on the complexity of your case, you could complete your treatment in as little as 6 months. But you will start seeing results in a matter of weeks. Braces move your teeth every day. However, noticeable minor shifts in your teeth take approximately 4 weeks from bonding date. Greater and more significant shifts that are more visible require more time as they become noticeable after approximately 2 to 3 months.

How about, at what age can one get braces?
There is actually no age limit for someone to get braces. Orthodontists, as dental professionals, are keen on patients having healthy jaw bone and permanent teeth to have dental braces fitted.

Which braces are the cheapest?
Metal braces tend to be the cheapest form of brace. Invisalign, the clear alternative to metal braces for kids, teens, and adults does tend to be a bit more expensive. Though expensive, invisalign clear aligners are more preferable since they have no restrictions on what one can eat while in treatment. Invisalign are removable, so there are no food restrictions at all, unlike with traditional wires and brackets, where there is a long list of foods you unfortunately cannot enjoy because they can damage or get stuck in your braces.
