Metal braces are fixed, require extra care, and have food restrictions. Clear aligners are removable, allow normal eating and hygiene, and use AI for treatment previews. They need fewer checkups and can treat various orthodontic issues for all ages.

Metal braces are fixed, requiring extra care for oral hygiene and dietary restrictions to avoid cavities, irritation, or dislodged brackets. In contrast, clear aligners are removable, allowing normal eating, brushing, and flossing. They use AI technology for treatment planning, enabling patients to preview results before starting. Clear aligners require fewer checkups (every 2-4 months) compared to monthly visits for metal braces, offering more convenience. Suitable for all ages starting from seven, clear aligners can treat issues like crowding, overbites, and gaps.
