Teeth Straightening Lucknow
Straighter Teeth. Better Bite.
A Smile Planned for Long-Term Health.
Teeth straightening is often associated with getting a more attractive smile. But orthodontic treatment is about much more than making teeth look straight.
The position of your teeth can affect:
At Realtooth, teeth straightening begins with understanding why the teeth are misaligned, how your upper and lower teeth meet, and which treatment option can provide the most appropriate result for your individual condition.
Realtooth offers a wide range of orthodontic options including:
The objective is not simply straighter teeth. It is a healthier, functional and naturally balanced smile.
Teeth Straightening Is Not Only About Appearance
Straight teeth can certainly improve a smile. But tooth position also affects how the mouth works. Misaligned teeth may contribute to several functional issues:
Difficult Cleaning
Crowded or overlapping teeth can make brushing and interdental cleaning more difficult.
Uneven Tooth Wear
Poorly distributed bite forces can cause some teeth to wear faster than others.
Gum Problems
Difficult-to-clean areas may contribute to plaque accumulation and gum inflammation.
Bite Imbalance
Upper and lower teeth may not contact in the most appropriate relationship.
Restorative Problems
Poor tooth position can make future veneers, crowns, bridges or implants more complicated.
We don't straighten teeth only for photographs. We plan how those teeth should function for years afterwards.

Realtooth Offers Multiple Teeth Straightening Options
There is no single orthodontic system that is right for everyone.
- Age
- Type of tooth movement required
- Complexity
- Bite
- Lifestyle
- Aesthetic preference
- Compliance
- Treatment expectations
- Budget
Realtooth therefore offers both clear aligner and conventional orthodontic options.
Clear Aligners
Clear aligners use a series of customised removable trays to gradually move teeth towards their planned positions.
They are particularly popular among patients who want a more discreet orthodontic treatment.
Potential advantages include:- Nearly invisible appearance
- Removability
- Easier brushing and flossing
- Fewer dietary restrictions compared with fixed braces
- Digital treatment planning
- Ability to visualise proposed tooth movement during planning
However, aligners require consistent patient cooperation. They usually need to be worn for the recommended number of hours every day.
The best aligner system will not work if it is not worn correctly.
Multiple Global Aligner Systems at Realtooth
Realtooth works with multiple established aligner platforms, allowing the orthodontic team to select a system according to the individual case. Depending on treatment requirements, options may include:
Invisalign
One of the most internationally recognised clear aligner systems, used for a broad range of orthodontic treatments.
ClearCorrect
A globally established clear aligner platform with digital treatment planning and customised aligner therapy.
SureSmile
A digital orthodontic system offering clear aligner treatment based on digitally planned tooth movement.
Spark Aligners
A premium aligner system used in selected orthodontic cases where clear removable treatment is appropriate.
Other Clinically Selected Systems
Realtooth may also work with additional aligner solutions where clinically appropriate.
The choice of system depends on the complexity of tooth movement, treatment objective, patient needs and orthodontic plan.
At Realtooth, we choose the aligner according to the treatment plan—not the treatment plan according to the aligner brand.
Why Does Realtooth Offer More Than One Aligner Brand?
Patients frequently search for a particular brand before understanding their orthodontic problem.
The Realtooth orthodontic team can compare suitable options rather than forcing every patient into one system.
The important question is not:
“Which aligner brand is best?”
It is:
“Which treatment plan is most appropriate for my teeth and bite?”
Different cases may require different:
- Tooth movements
- Attachment designs
- Treatment staging
- Refinement strategies
- Monitoring
- Cost structures
Conventional & Fixed Orthodontic Options
Fixed braces provide continuous mechanical control for various complex orthodontic cases.
Conventional Metal Braces
Metal braces remain one of the most established orthodontic treatment methods. They use brackets and orthodontic wires to gradually move the teeth.
They can be particularly useful when:- Complex tooth movement is required
- Significant crowding is present
- Bite correction is necessary
- Patient compliance with removable aligners may be difficult
- The orthodontist wants continuous control of tooth movement
Metal braces may be especially appropriate for some teenagers and complex orthodontic cases.
Ceramic / Tooth-Coloured Braces
Ceramic braces work on principles similar to conventional fixed braces but use brackets designed to be less visually prominent.
They may appeal to patients who:- Require fixed orthodontic treatment
- Prefer a more discreet appearance
- Are not ideal candidates for clear aligners
- Want greater orthodontic control with less visible brackets
Your orthodontist can discuss whether ceramic braces are appropriate for your case.
Clear Aligners vs Fixed Braces
Neither treatment is automatically better.
Clear Aligners May Suit Patients Who:
- Prefer a discreet treatment
- Want removable appliances
- Are motivated to wear aligners consistently
- Have suitable orthodontic problems
Fixed Braces May Suit Patients Who:
- Require more complex orthodontic movements
- Do not want responsibility for wearing removable aligners
- Have certain significant bite problems
- Require greater continuous mechanical control
At Realtooth, treatment selection is based on the clinical situation and patient lifestyle together.
Digital Orthodontic Assessment
Modern orthodontics can begin with a detailed digital record of your teeth. Realtooth uses advanced intraoral scanning to create a three-dimensional representation of the mouth.
Depending upon the case, this helps the treatment team evaluate:
- Crowding
- Spaces
- Tooth position and Arch shape
- Bite relationship
- Available space
- Treatment progression
Digital records can also improve communication between the patient, orthodontist, and treatment-planning team.
See the Treatment Plan Before You Start
One advantage of digital aligner treatment is the ability to virtually plan tooth movements.
In selected cases, patients can understand:
It is important to understand that a digital simulation represents the planned treatment objective, while actual biological tooth movement can vary and may require modifications during treatment.
Realtooth Focuses on Bite—Not Just Straight Front Teeth
A common mistake in cosmetic orthodontics is focusing only on the front six teeth. A smile can appear straighter while the underlying bite remains poorly managed.
Realtooth evaluates:
Straight front teeth with an unhealthy bite are not our definition of successful orthodontics.

Common Orthodontic Conditions We Treat
Understanding your specific concern helps us design the most effective personalized treatment plan.
Crowded Teeth
Crowding occurs when there is insufficient space for the teeth to align correctly.
Treatment may involve:- Arch development
- Interproximal reduction in selected cases
- Tooth movement
- Extraction in selected situations
- Clear aligners
- Fixed braces
Strategy: Decided after understanding available space, facial profile, and bite.
Gaps Between Teeth
Tooth size differences, missing teeth, gum conditions, or developmental factors.
Treatment options:- Clear aligners
- Braces
- Cosmetic bonding
- Veneers
- Combination treatment
Note: Closing every space orthodontically may not always give the best result. Sometimes orthodontics & cosmetic dentistry are combined.
Protruding Teeth
- Smile aesthetics
- Lip position
- Facial profile
- Risk of dental trauma
- Bite relationship
Approach: Requires detailed orthodontic & facial assessment rather than simply moving visible teeth backward.
Deep Bite, Open Bite Crossbite
Some orthodontic problems involve the relationship between the upper and lower jaws and teeth.
Deep Bite
Excessive vertical overlap of the front teeth.
Open Bite
Upper and lower teeth do not meet properly in selected areas.
Crossbite
Upper and lower teeth meet in an abnormal side-to-side relationship.
These cases may require more complex orthodontic planning and should not be treated as simple cosmetic alignment.
Adult Teeth Straightening
You are not “too old” simply because you did not receive braces as a teenager.
Adults increasingly seek orthodontic treatment for:
Adult treatment may require consideration of:
- Gum health
- Periodontal status
- Previous root canal treatment
- Existing crowns,
- Implants missing teeth
- Prior dental restorations
Realtooth's multispeciality environment is particularly helpful when orthodontics needs to be coordinated with other dental treatment.
Teeth Straightening for Teenagers
Teen orthodontic treatment can help address developing problems effectively during growth years.
Common teenage orthodontic concerns addressed:
Treatment Options May Include:
- Fixed braces: Traditional metal or tooth-coloured braces for precise mechanical control.
- Clear aligners: Removable clear trays in suitable and cooperative teenage patients.
- Growth-aligned strategies: Custom orthodontic plans matched according to dental development and growth.
The orthodontist determines the most appropriate timing and treatment system for each teenager.
Teeth Straightening Before Veneers or Smile Design
Sometimes patients request veneers because their teeth are crooked.
However, significant tooth preparation may be required if veneers are used to visually disguise poorly positioned teeth.
A More Conservative & Better Approach:
Align Teeth First
Reassess the Smile
Whiten if Required
Minimal Bonding or Veneers Only Where Necessary
This phased approach helps preserve more healthy natural tooth structure.
“Move the tooth when possible. Cut the tooth only when necessary.”
Orthodontics Before Dental Implants
Integrated multidisciplinary planning ensures proper tooth alignment before permanent implant placement.
Why Sequence Matters?
Dental implants cannot be moved orthodontically in the same way as natural teeth once integrated into bone. Therefore, in some patients with missing teeth, orthodontic treatment should be completed before implant placement.
The Realtooth orthodontic and implant teams can jointly determine:
This is one major advantage of integrated multidisciplinary planning.
Realtooth USP : Multispeciality Smile Planning
Some smile problems cannot be solved by orthodontics alone. Realtooth brings multiple dental specialists together for holistic treatment.
Seamless Collaboration Between Specialists:
How Integrated Treatment Works
Orthodontics
To improve tooth position
Whitening
To improve overall tooth colour
Bonding / Veneers
To correct tooth proportions
Gum Treatment
To improve gum health & symmetry
This allows treatment to be designed around the final smile objective rather than around a single isolated procedure.
Don't Choose Online or Unsupervised AlignersWithout Proper Diagnosis
Clear aligners can appear simple because they are removable trays. But moving teeth is a biological and clinical process.
Before orthodontic treatment, a qualified dentist must evaluate:
- Gum health
- Cavities
- Tooth roots
- Bone support
- Bite relationship
- Existing restorations
- Impacted teeth
- Missing teeth
Poorly planned tooth movement may create serious problems involving function, gums, or long-term stability.
Aligners are a medical dental treatment — not an online cosmetic product.
How Long Does Teeth Straightening Take?
Treatment time varies widely.
Some relatively minor alignment cases may be completed faster, while complex bite correction can require a substantially longer treatment period.
A realistic timeline is discussed after orthodontic assessment.
- Amount of tooth movement
- Bite problem
- Biological response
- Patient cooperation
- Aligner wear
- Missed appointments
- Need for refinements
- Complexity of the case
Will Teeth Become Crooked Again?
Teeth can move after orthodontic treatment.
This is why retention is essential.
Long-term retainer use may be required to maintain the result.
Depending upon the case, your orthodontist may recommend:
- Removable retainers
- Fixed retainers
- A combination of both
