About this treatment
Ceramic braces work like metal braces but use clear or tooth-coloured brackets that are much less visible, making them popular with adults.
Orthodontics at Manhal looks beyond straight teeth. The position of the jaws affects the bite, the joints and the space available for breathing, so assessment covers all three before an appliance is chosen.

- Patients who prefer a discreet look
- Cases less suited to aligners

Orthodontic assessment records the teeth, the bite, jaw relationships and — where relevant — breathing and sleep history. Photographs, a digital scan and radiographs are taken as needed to plan treatment and estimate its duration.
