Clear aligners vs braces: which fits a Karachi lifestyle?

Travel, weddings, and professional life — how we choose between aligners and fixed appliances.

Aligners suit adults who need discretion and can commit to 20+ hours of wear. Braces remain excellent for complex bite work and younger patients.

At Meridian, Dr. Farooqi maps both options in 3D before you choose. Travel and weddings are planned into the timeline — not treated as surprises.

Retainers are non-negotiable either way. We include them in full packages so the result holds.
