Small brackets are bonded to each tooth and connected by an archwire. Tightening and reshaping that wire at each visit applies steady pressure, and the teeth move through the bone over months rather than weeks.
Metal, ceramic and lingual (behind-the-teeth) versions all work on the same principle — the difference is how visible the hardware is, not how effective the movement is.
Fixed braces are usually the better route where teeth need to move a significant distance, rotate, or where the bite itself needs correcting — not just cosmetic straightening.
Clear aligners rely on the patient wearing them for the majority of each day, and they are limited in how much rotation or vertical movement they can achieve on their own.
Fixed braces are bonded in place, so there’s no compliance question, and they can handle more complex tooth movement in a single course of treatment.
Left uncorrected, crowding and bite problems tend to get harder to treat over time, not easier — teeth continue to drift, and uneven wear on crowded teeth can shorten their life.
A properly finished course of braces leaves teeth easier to clean, a bite that meets evenly, and a retainer plan to hold the result.
Treatment length depends on how much movement is needed — from around a year for limited correction to two years or more for a full bite correction. Step through the sequence.
Photographs, a digital scan, and a bite assessment, so the treatment plan is built around your case specifically.
Brackets are fitted to your teeth in a single visit in Budapest, and the first archwire is placed.
The archwire is tightened at intervals, typically every six to eight weeks, moving teeth in planned stages.
Reviewed regularly. Minor checks can sometimes be managed by photo between trips; the key adjustment stages happen in person.
Brackets are removed, teeth are polished, and a retainer is fitted immediately to hold the new position.
The standard route. A Camlog or Straumann implant, an abutment, and a zirconia crown from our own laboratory.
A two-piece ceramic implant with a zirconia crown, for patients who want no metal in the mouth at all. Very few clinics in Europe offer this.
Where bone quality is good and the tooth is coming out anyway, the implant can go in at the same visit with a temporary crown straight away.
These figures are placeholders in the same published-price-list format CosmoDent uses for implants — not confirmed brace pricing. Replace with the clinic’s actual component prices before this page goes live.
Prices are indicative. The exact price of your treatment is calculated at your first consultation, once we have seen the X-rays. GBP figures are converted for guidance at approximately 427 HUF to the pound.
Send an X-ray, or three photos on your phone. A dentist will look at it and write back with a provisional plan and an indicative price — before you commit to anything, and before you book a flight.

“I was nervous about visiting an unfamiliar clinic, but I had a great experience. The clinic was clean, modern and stylish, and my doctor did an amazing job.”
“Arrival, airport pickup and appointment scheduling went very smoothly. Dr Ecsegi was highly competent, and I felt well cared for during my treatment.”
“I had been an extremely anxious patient for many years and carefully researched clinics before choosing CosmoDent. I’m incredibly happy with my experience.”
“The perfect dental clinic! Several dentists told me they couldn’t replace my two front teeth with implants following an accident—but CosmoDent helped me.”
“This was by far the best dental experience of my life. I travelled to Budapest after weeks of pain and difficult experiences with several dental clinics in Paris.”

Fewer than you’d expect. You need to be there for bonding and for the key adjustment stages; some routine checks in between can be managed with photos. We map out the likely number of trips for your specific case at the assessment.
Yes, generally — ceramic costs more than metal because the brackets themselves cost more and need more careful handling, and lingual is typically the most expensive of the three because of the extra time it takes to fit and adjust. Exact figures come after your assessment.
There’s usually some pressure and mild discomfort for a few days after fitting and after each adjustment, similar to the ache of biting on something firm. It settles quickly and isn’t described as painful by most patients.
Usually, yes — brackets can be bonded to crowns as well as natural teeth in most cases. We check this at the scan stage and flag anything that needs a different approach.
Contact us straight away — a loose bracket usually isn’t an emergency, but we’ll tell you whether it can wait until your next scheduled visit or needs an earlier check-in.
Indefinitely, in some form — most people wear a retainer full-time for the first few months, then reduce to nights only. Teeth keep a natural pull back toward their old position for years, so stopping retention early is the most common reason a result relapses.
Upload a panoramic X-ray if you have one. If not, three clear phone photos are enough to start. A dentist reviews what you send and you receive a written provisional plan with an indicative price.
No obligation, no deposit, and no need to travel to find out whether an implant is even the right answer.
