Teeth can be aligned in a number of ways. From the traditional metal braces to state of the art invisible aligners ( Invisalign etc.). The duration and cost of the treat depends on the severity of your problem and the type of braces chosen. You should get in touch with an Orthodontist in your vicinity. If in Mumbai you can get in touch with me. The whitening can be done after your teeth are aligned for best results.

Teeth alignment can be done either by braces or through cosmetic procedures.
In braces there's conventional braces and newer braces commonly known as ALIGNERS which are clear plates without wires and brackets. Time duration can vary depending upon the severity of the case. Around one to one and a half years.
Cosmetically there are various procedures like bridges, laminates and all and it requires 10-20days to finish off the case.. Cost is highly variable as it depends on the skill of the operator
