What Are Dental Braces?

Dental braces are orthodontic devices that gradually move your teeth into better alignment.
They use gentle, consistent pressure to guide your teeth into their ideal positions improving both appearance and oral function.

Braces aren’t just about a perfect smile. They help you:

  • Chew better

  • Prevent jaw pain and uneven wear

  • Reduce tooth decay by making brushing and flossing easier

At Kisumu Smiles, we use modern, low-profile braces systems for a comfortable, discreet, and effective experience.

Who Can Benefit from Braces?

Braces are suitable for anyone who wants a healthier, more balanced smile from kids to adults.
You might be a good candidate if you have:

  • Crooked or crowded teeth

  • Gaps between teeth

  • Overbite, underbite, or crossbite

  • Shifting teeth after previous orthodontic work

Our orthodontic team will assess your bite and discuss which treatment option fits your goals, lifestyle, and budget.

Types of Braces We Offer in Kisumu

Traditional Metal Braces

Durable and highly effective for correcting complex issues.
New designs are smaller, smoother, and more comfortable than ever.

Ceramic (Tooth-Colored) Braces

Blend with your natural teeth  ideal if you want something subtle.

Perfect for professionals or adults looking for a nearly invisible solution.

Every option starts with a comprehensive orthodontic evaluation to determine what suits your case best.

What to Expect During Your Braces Journey

Getting braces is a step-by-step process, and we’re with you all the way:

Step 1: Consultation

We assess your teeth, gums, and jaw alignment, take X-rays or scans, and discuss your smile goals.

Step 2: Personalized Treatment Plan

You’ll receive a customized plan  including brace type, estimated duration, and cost options.

Step 3: Braces Placement

Brackets are gently bonded to your teeth, and wires are attached. The process takes about an hour and is completely pain-free.

Step 4: Regular Adjustments

You’ll visit us every 4–6 weeks so we can make small adjustments that move your teeth safely and steadily.

Step 5: Retainers & Smile Reveal

Once your teeth are perfectly aligned, we remove the braces and fit retainers to keep your smile in place.

Average treatment time: 12 months, depending on your needs.

. Will braces change how I talk or eat?

Slightly at first. You may lisp or chew slower for a few days, but your mouth quickly adjusts. Within a week, you’ll eat and speak normally again.
(Source: American Association of Orthodontists – “Adjusting to Braces,” 2024)

Not immediately. We’ll first treat any decay or gum inflammation to make sure your mouth is healthy enough for braces. Once healed, you’re good to go.

No while they improve appearance, braces also fix functional issues like chewing problems, jaw pain, and uneven tooth wear.

Don’t panic  it’s common. Avoid touching it and call us immediately. We’ll book a quick repair appointment to prevent irritation or delay.
