THE PROCESS

How braces work — step by step

From your first consultation to your final retainer, here is what to expect at our Clementi clinic.

1

Consultation & 3D Scan

Your dentist assesses your teeth and takes a 3D digital scan — no traditional moulds. A personalised treatment plan is developed with estimated timelines and cost before you commit.

2

Bracket Placement

Self-ligating brackets are bonded to your teeth and an archwire is placed. The procedure is straightforward and typically takes about an hour. Your dentist will explain how to care for your braces.

3

Monthly Adjustments

Visit every 4–6 weeks for wire changes and progress monitoring. Each adjustment takes about 20–30 minutes. Our evening hours make it easy to fit appointments around work or school.

4

Retainers & Results

Once your teeth reach the planned position, brackets are removed and retainers are fitted. Your orthodontic team reviews the final result and provides a retention plan to maintain your new smile.

LOCAL ORTHODONTIC CARE

Braces for Clementi residents

Metal braces remain a popular choice for patients in Clementi, particularly students and young adults who want reliable, effective orthodontic treatment at an affordable monthly cost. At Trust Dental Clementi, we use self-ligating brackets that hold the archwire with a built-in clip rather than elastic ties, creating less friction and potentially reducing discomfort during treatment. Learn more about all orthodontic options on our braces & Invisalign page.

NUS and Singapore Polytechnic students often choose braces for their reliability and affordability — a fixed system that works continuously without needing to remember to put aligners back in. Residents of Clementi Ave 1–6 estates can walk to the clinic for their monthly adjustments, while Dover and West Coast families appreciate the ground-floor access and evening hours until 8:30pm.

The monthly payment plan from $180/month makes braces accessible without a large upfront investment. If you are weighing up your options, Invisalign is also available from $2,400 at our Invisalign Clementi clinic. Read our comparison article on Invisalign vs braces to understand the differences in cost, comfort, and lifestyle impact, or check out our guides on keeping teeth clean with braces and whether Invisalign hurts.

Straightening your teeth can also improve your oral health — properly aligned teeth are easier to clean, reducing the risk of gum disease and decay over time. Whether you choose braces or clear aligners, our orthodontic team will guide you through every stage.

BRACES FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about braces at our Clementi clinic.

How much do braces cost at Trust Dental Clementi?
Metal braces at Trust Dental Clementi start from $180 per month before GST (9%). We use self-ligating brackets, and monthly payment plans are available so there is no large upfront cost. An exact quote is provided after a clinical assessment and 3D scan. Invisalign is also available from $2,400 as an alternative.
What type of braces does Trust Dental Clementi use?
We use self-ligating metal braces, which hold the archwire with a built-in clip rather than elastic ties. This design creates less friction, can reduce discomfort, and may mean fewer adjustment visits compared to traditional braces with elastic bands.
How long does braces treatment take?
Braces treatment typically takes 12 to 24 months depending on the complexity of your case. Mild crowding may take closer to 12 months, while more significant alignment or bite correction may take up to 24 months. Your orthodontist will provide an estimated timeline after your 3D scan and assessment.
How often do I need to visit for adjustments?
Every 4 to 6 weeks for wire adjustments and progress checks. Each visit takes about 20–30 minutes. Our Clementi clinic's evening hours (till 8:30pm Mon–Wed, Fri) make it easy to schedule adjustment appointments after work or school.
Are braces or Invisalign better?
It depends on your case and preferences. Braces are fixed to your teeth and work continuously — they are often chosen by younger patients or those who prefer not to worry about removing aligners. Invisalign is removable and virtually invisible but requires discipline to wear 20–22 hours per day. Both options are available at our Clementi clinic. Read our comparison article or visit our braces & Invisalign page for a detailed breakdown.
Is Trust Dental Clementi near public transport?
Yes. Trust Dental Clementi at Blk 431 Clementi Ave 3 is a 5-minute walk from Clementi MRT (EW23), Exit A. Bus routes 14, 74, 147, 166, and 285 stop nearby. The clinic is on the ground floor with step-free access.
