Effective orthodontic treatment with a subtle appearance. Tooth-colored brackets that blend with your smile while delivering the same results as traditional braces.
Ceramic braces, also known as tooth-colored braces or clear braces, use brackets made from translucent ceramic material that blends with your natural tooth color. They work exactly like traditional metal braces but offer a more aesthetic appearance, making them a popular choice for adults and image-conscious teens.
The ceramic brackets are designed to match the shade of your teeth, making them far less noticeable than metal alternatives. Many ceramic braces systems also use tooth-colored or clear wires to further minimize visibility.
At Curve Orthodontics in Bangalore, Dr. Garima Gupta (MDS Orthodontics) offers ceramic braces for patients who want effective orthodontic treatment without the prominent appearance of metal brackets. If aesthetics matter to you but you prefer the reliability of fixed braces over removable aligners, ceramic braces offer the perfect middle ground. To compare them with the other invisible braces options in Bangalore, see our guide.
Tooth-colored brackets blend with your natural teeth, making them far less noticeable than metal braces in photos and daily interactions.
Ceramic braces work exactly like metal braces, capable of treating the same range of orthodontic issues with equal precision.
Ideal for working professionals who want orthodontic treatment without the visibility of traditional metal braces.
Unlike clear aligners, ceramic braces are fixed and work 24/7 without requiring you to remember to wear them.

As an adult, I was worried about how braces would look, but thanks to Dr. Garima, I opted for Invisalign clear aligners at Curve Orthodontics. The entire process was smooth—appointments were on time, monitoring was done regularly, and the aligners fit perfectly. What I liked the most is that the treatment was completely discreet, and I could remove the aligners while eating. Love my new smile :) HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

We recently visited Curve dental clinic to get braces and the overall experience has been excellent. Dr. Garima and her team were extremely supportive throughout the consultation. They clearly explained the entire process and patiently addressed all our questions and concerns. Their professionalism and warm approach made us feel very comfortable and confident about the treatment. We truly appreciate the care shown so far and look forward to receiving the same level of support throughout our one‑year treatment journey.

The ceramic brackets themselves do not stain—they're made from stain-resistant materials. However, the clear elastic ties that hold the wire in place can discolor from coffee, tea, curry, and other pigmented foods. These ties are replaced at each adjustment appointment (every 4-6 weeks), so any staining is temporary.
Both are equally effective at straightening teeth. The choice depends on your priorities. Choose ceramic if aesthetics are important and you're willing to pay more for a subtle appearance. Choose metal if you want the most durable, affordable option and don't mind the visible brackets. We can help you decide during your consultation.
Ceramic braces at Curve Orthodontics start from ₹50,000, about ₹15,000 more than metal braces, because of the specialized tooth-colored materials. The exact price depends on your case complexity and treatment duration, and flexible EMI plans are available. See our full [braces cost in Bangalore](/pricing/braces-cost-bangalore/) guide.
Yes, ceramic braces are just as effective as metal braces. They use the same treatment principles and can correct the same range of orthodontic issues. The only difference is the material of the brackets—the underlying mechanics and results are identical.
Care for ceramic braces like you would metal braces: brush after every meal, floss daily, and attend regular adjustment appointments. To keep them looking their best, limit staining foods and drinks like coffee, tea, and curry. Avoid hard, crunchy foods that could chip the ceramic material.
Ceramic braces are ideal for adults and teens who want the effectiveness of traditional braces with a more subtle appearance. They're popular among working professionals, those in public-facing roles, and anyone who feels self-conscious about visible metal brackets. They're not recommended for very active patients or contact sports players due to chip risk.
Ceramic braces cost more than metal braces (from ₹50,000 vs ₹35,000 at Curve Orthodontics), the brackets are slightly larger and can chip under heavy force, and the elastic ties can stain from coffee, tea or curry. Treatment time and results are the same as metal braces.
