Clear Aligners & Braces in Mulund West, Mumbai

Straightening teeth is no longer a choice between metal brackets and nothing. Clear aligners are removable, nearly invisible trays that move teeth gradually — and where braces remain the better clinical answer, modern ceramic options are far more discreet than they used to be.

We begin every orthodontic case with a digital scan and 3D treatment simulation. You see a projection of how your teeth will move and what the final result should look like before you commit to anything — which makes the decision far easier.

Clear aligners suit most adults with crowding, spacing, mild-to-moderate bite issues or relapse after previous orthodontic work. They are removed for eating and brushing, which keeps oral hygiene straightforward, and there are no dietary restrictions.

Some cases genuinely need fixed appliances — significant rotations, large bite corrections and certain skeletal patterns respond better to braces. We will tell you honestly which route suits your case rather than selling you the option you walked in asking for.

Adults form the majority of our orthodontic patients. Many delayed treatment for years because they did not want visible metal, and aligners have removed that objection entirely.

What’s included at Neem Dental Care

What to expect, step by step

  1. Assessment & scan — Clinical examination, photographs and a digital scan of your teeth and bite.
  2. 3D simulation — You see a projected outcome and treatment duration before deciding whether to proceed.
  3. Active treatment — Aligners are changed on schedule, or braces adjusted at review visits, as teeth move into position.
  4. Retention — A retainer holds the new position. This step is not optional — teeth drift back without it.

Frequently asked questions

How long does clear aligner treatment take?

Mild crowding or spacing can resolve in six to nine months. More complex cases typically run twelve to eighteen months. Your 3D simulation gives an estimated duration specific to your teeth before you start.

Are clear aligners as effective as braces?

For most crowding, spacing and mild-to-moderate bite corrections, yes. For significant rotations, large skeletal discrepancies or complex bite work, fixed braces still give more predictable control. We will tell you which applies to you.

How many hours a day do I need to wear aligners?

Twenty to twenty-two hours daily — effectively all the time except when eating, drinking anything other than water, and brushing. Compliance is the single biggest factor in whether treatment finishes on schedule.

Am I too old for braces or aligners?

No. Teeth move at any age provided the gums and supporting bone are healthy. Adults in their forties, fifties and beyond are treated routinely — with a periodontist on site, gum health is assessed properly before we begin.

Will my teeth move back afterwards?

They will if you do not wear a retainer. Relapse is the most common reason people need orthodontic work twice. We plan retention from the outset and explain exactly what long-term wear is required.
