Orthodontic Braces in Chisinau
Top dental clinics in Chisinau, ratings and reviews
Orthodontic braces correct the bite at any age — they are fitted to children and to adults in their forties alike. Straight teeth are not only about looks: with a bad bite some teeth wear out faster, plaque builds up in crowded areas causing decay, and the jaw joint clicks and aches. Treatment is led by an orthodontist — a separate specialty not found in every dental clinic in Chisinau.
Which braces to choose
Metal braces are the most reliable and affordable, and they work fastest. Ceramic and sapphire ones blend with the enamel: you pay roughly double for aesthetics. Lingual braces are fixed on the inner side and are completely invisible, but they cost the most and require getting used to speaking. Self-ligating systems cut down visits — every 8–10 weeks instead of monthly.
Duration, prices and aftercare
Treatment lasts one to three years and starts with a panoramic X-ray and mandatory hygiene. Metal braces in Chisinau cost 8000–14,000 MDL per jaw, ceramic 14,000–22,000 MDL — about a third of Western European prices. Retainers are essential afterwards, otherwise teeth drift back. Prefer something invisible? See aligners.
