About Dr. Pallab Kishore

Dr. Pallab Kishore practices as a Consultant Orthodontist, with a professional focus on orthodontic assessment and treatment planning.

Orthodontics is the area of dentistry concerned with the position and alignment of teeth and how the upper and lower teeth meet. Patients commonly seek an orthodontic consultation when their teeth are crowded, crooked, protruding, unusually spaced, or when they are concerned about their bite.

Braces and clear aligners can both be used to move teeth gradually, but the most appropriate option depends on the individual patient. Tooth position, bite, available space, oral hygiene, gum health, age, treatment goals, and the complexity of the required tooth movement may all influence the treatment plan.

For patients searching for an orthodontist in Dhaka, an orthodontist in Rajshahi, a braces specialist, or a clear aligner specialist, an in-person assessment with an appropriately qualified dental professional is the first step toward understanding which treatment options may be suitable.

Educational Qualifications

Dr. Pallab Kishore’s listed professional qualifications are:

• BDS
• MS (Orthodontics)

A BDS provides the professional foundation for dental practice, while postgraduate study in orthodontics focuses more specifically on the diagnosis and management of tooth-position and bite-related problems.

Orthodontic assessment may involve examination of the teeth, bite, jaws, oral hygiene, and surrounding dental structures. Depending on the case, an orthodontist may also require dental photographs, scans, impressions, or X-rays before completing a treatment plan.

General NHS orthodontic guidance similarly notes that treatment planning depends on the individual dental problem and may involve assessment of the teeth and jaws before treatment begins.

Professional Experience

Dr. Pallab Kishore has more than 11 years of professional experience.

Orthodontic care often continues over a series of appointments rather than being completed in one visit. A treatment journey may include:

• Initial consultation and examination
• Diagnostic records when needed
• Treatment planning
• Placement or delivery of the orthodontic appliance
• Periodic monitoring
• Adjustments or progression through aligners
• Oral-hygiene guidance
• Retention after active treatment

The total treatment period varies between patients. It may be influenced by the type and severity of the orthodontic problem, the appliance being used, oral health, biological response, and how closely treatment instructions are followed.

Braces Treatment

Braces are a well-established method of gradually moving teeth into planned positions.

Fixed braces commonly use brackets attached to the teeth and wires that apply controlled forces over time. Orthodontic treatment may be considered when teeth are:

• Crooked
• Crowded
• Overlapping
• Protruding
• Rotated
• Widely spaced
• Positioned in a way that contributes to an abnormal bite

Current NHS guidance describes braces as a treatment used to straighten teeth and notes that they may be recommended when teeth are crowded, protruding, widely spaced, or when the upper and lower teeth or jaws do not meet properly.

Patients considering braces with Dr. Pallab Kishore can discuss the nature of their alignment problem, expected treatment approach, follow-up requirements, appliance care, and estimated costs before treatment begins.

For general information about expected treatment expenses, patients can also read Bangladesh Health Alliance’s guide to teeth braces cost in Bangladesh. Teeth Braces Cost in Bangladesh

Clear Aligner Treatment

Dr. Pallab Kishore’s listed specialty includes clear aligner treatment.

Clear aligners are removable transparent trays designed to move teeth gradually through a planned sequence. Their less noticeable appearance may appeal to patients who prefer an alternative to conventional visible braces.

Because aligners are removable, they can generally be taken out for meals and oral hygiene according to the orthodontist’s instructions. However, successful treatment depends heavily on consistent wear.

Clear aligners are not automatically suitable for every patient or every type of orthodontic movement. More complicated tooth positions or bite problems may require a different approach.

An orthodontic examination therefore remains important before deciding between clear aligners and fixed braces.

Braces vs Clear Aligners

Neither braces nor clear aligners are automatically “better.” The more suitable option depends on the patient’s orthodontic condition, treatment goals, and ability to follow appliance instructions.

Patients concerned mainly about appearance should still avoid choosing an appliance based only on visibility. Treatment effectiveness, oral health, comfort, lifestyle, treatment complexity, and long-term stability all matter.

Teeth Crowding, Crooked Teeth and Spacing

Dental crowding occurs when there is not enough room for teeth to remain in an orderly position. Teeth may overlap, rotate, or erupt outside the preferred dental arch.

Spacing describes visible gaps between teeth. The cause of spacing can differ from one patient to another.

Both problems may be reasons to seek an orthodontic assessment, but treatment should be based on more than cosmetic appearance. The relationship between the teeth, bite, gum health, available space, and overall dental condition needs to be considered.

Patients should also mention any previous braces treatment, tooth extractions, dental trauma, or other significant dental history during their consultation.

Bite-Related Orthodontic Concerns

Some patients seek orthodontic care because their upper and lower teeth do not meet in the way they expect.

Terms commonly used in orthodontics include:

• Overbite
• Underbite
• Crossbite
• Open bite

These terms can describe different dental relationships and should not be self-diagnosed from photographs alone.

Patients concerned about their bite can consult an orthodontist for assessment. The recommended treatment, if any, depends on the individual clinical findings.

Can Adults Have Orthodontic Treatment?

Yes. Adults can receive orthodontic treatment when their dental and gum health is suitable.

NHS guidance states that orthodontic treatment for adults can begin at any age, although maintaining good oral hygiene is important because orthodontic appliances can increase the risk of tooth decay and gum problems if cleaning is inadequate.

Adult orthodontic planning may also need to consider:

• Existing fillings or crowns
• Missing teeth
• Previous dental treatment
• Gum condition
• Previous orthodontic treatment
• Current oral-hygiene status

Patients should therefore expect an individualized assessment rather than assuming that a treatment option suitable for another person will also be suitable for them.

When Should You See an Orthodontist?

Consider an orthodontic consultation if you are concerned about:

• Crooked or overlapping teeth
• Crowded teeth
• Noticeable gaps
• Protruding teeth
• Rotated or displaced teeth
• Upper and lower teeth not meeting normally
• Difficulty cleaning certain areas because of tooth position
• Changes in tooth alignment after previous orthodontic treatment
• The appearance or function of your dental alignment

An orthodontist can assess whether treatment is needed and explain the available options.

Why Oral Hygiene Matters During Orthodontic Treatment

Good oral hygiene is essential before and during orthodontic treatment.

Fixed braces can create additional areas where food and plaque collect, while patients using removable appliances also need to keep both their teeth and appliances clean.

Current NHS guidance advises people with braces to maintain careful brushing, clean around the appliance, and continue routine dental check-ups during orthodontic treatment. It also notes that poor plaque control can contribute to tooth decay and gum problems.

Patients should follow the oral-hygiene instructions given by their dental and orthodontic team throughout treatment.

Oral Health in Bangladesh

The wider oral-health situation in Bangladesh makes preventive dental care particularly important.

In February 2026, the World Health Organization reported that more than 80% of Bangladesh’s population is affected by at least one oral disease, while 71% of people surveyed said they had never received any form of dental care. WHO also reported the endorsement of Bangladesh’s first National Oral Health Strategy and Action Plan 2025–2030.

WHO’s Bangladesh Oral Health Country Profile also estimated that, in 2019, 30.4% of people aged five years and older had untreated caries in permanent teeth, while 23.4% of people aged 15 years and older had severe periodontal disease.

These national figures do not describe Dr. Pallab Kishore’s individual patients. They are included to provide broader context on the importance of oral-health assessment and timely dental care in Bangladesh.

What to Bring to Your First Orthodontic Appointment

To help make the consultation more useful, bring any previous dental information you already have, such as:

• Dental X-rays
• Previous orthodontic records
• Dental prescriptions
• Information about earlier braces or retainers
• Relevant treatment summaries
• Details of previous dental trauma or extractions

Existing records may provide useful background, although new photographs, scans, X-rays, or other investigations may still be required if clinically appropriate.

It can also help to write down the main reason you are seeking treatment and any questions you would like answered.

Useful Questions to Ask Before Starting Treatment

Before agreeing to orthodontic treatment, consider asking:

• What orthodontic problem has been identified?
• What treatment options are suitable for my case?
• Why is the recommended appliance preferred?
• How often will follow-up visits be required?
• What oral-hygiene changes will I need to make?
• What factors may affect the treatment duration?
• Will I need a retainer afterward?
• What is included in the estimated treatment cost?
• Are diagnostic tests or additional procedures charged separately?

Clear communication about expectations can help patients make informed treatment decisions.

Frequently Asked Questions About Dr. Pallab Kishore

Can Dr. Pallab Kishore help me decide between braces and clear aligners?

Yes. Dr. Pallab Kishore is a Consultant Orthodontist whose listed specialty includes braces and clear aligners. During an orthodontic assessment, factors such as tooth position, crowding, spacing, bite, oral health, and the complexity of the required tooth movement can be considered before a treatment option is recommended.

Clear aligners may suit some patients, while fixed braces may be more appropriate for others. Neither option should be selected only because of appearance or convenience.

Will Dr. Pallab Kishore start my braces treatment during the first appointment?

Not necessarily. The first appointment may focus on examining your teeth and bite, discussing your concerns, and deciding whether further diagnostic information is needed.

Depending on the case, photographs, scans, impressions, or dental X-rays may be required before a complete treatment plan can be prepared. Treatment can then be discussed in terms of the appliance, expected follow-up, oral-hygiene requirements, possible duration, and cost.

Can I bring an old dental X-ray when I visit Dr. Pallab Kishore?

Yes. If you already have dental X-rays, previous orthodontic records, scans, prescriptions, or treatment summaries, bring them with you.

Previous records can provide useful background about earlier dental or orthodontic treatment. However, an old X-ray may not always provide all the information needed for a new treatment plan, so Dr. Pallab Kishore may recommend updated records if they are clinically necessary.

Can adults consult Dr. Pallab Kishore for braces or clear aligners?

Yes. Adults concerned about crooked teeth, crowding, spacing, or tooth alignment can arrange an orthodontic assessment with Dr. Pallab Kishore.

Orthodontic treatment is not limited to children or teenagers. NHS guidance states that adult orthodontic treatment can begin at any age. Good dental and gum health remains important because patients need to maintain effective oral hygiene throughout orthodontic treatment.

The appropriate treatment option depends on each adult patient’s dental condition and treatment goals.

How often will I need follow-up appointments after starting orthodontic treatment?

Follow-up appointments are generally required throughout active orthodontic treatment, but the interval varies according to the appliance, treatment stage, tooth movement, and individual treatment plan.

For example, current NHS guidance notes that patients with fixed braces may have adjustment appointments approximately every several weeks.

Dr. Pallab Kishore can explain the expected review schedule for your specific case before or after treatment begins. Patients travelling from another district should consider follow-up requirements when planning treatment.

What should I do if my brace or wire breaks between appointments?

Contact the chamber where you are receiving orthodontic treatment and explain what has broken and whether you are experiencing pain or irritation.

Do not automatically wait until the next routine visit if the appliance is damaged. NHS guidance advises patients to contact their orthodontic team if braces break or if significant discomfort persists.

The chamber can advise whether you need an earlier appointment or another appropriate next step.

Can I remove clear aligners whenever I want?

Clear aligners are removable, but they should not be treated as an appliance that can be worn only occasionally.

To move teeth according to the treatment plan, patients normally need to follow the orthodontist’s prescribed wear schedule carefully. Aligners may be removed at appropriate times, such as for eating and oral hygiene, according to the instructions given for that specific treatment system.

Before starting, ask Dr. Pallab Kishore how consistently you will need to wear the aligners and what may happen if the recommended schedule is not followed.

Will I need a retainer after braces or clear aligner treatment?

Retention is commonly required after active orthodontic tooth movement.

A retainer helps maintain the corrected tooth position while the surrounding tissues adapt. Without appropriate retention, teeth can move again over time.

NHS orthodontic guidance advises that retainers are used after braces to reduce the risk of teeth moving back toward their previous positions.

The type of retainer and how long it should be worn depend on the individual treatment plan, so patients should follow the instructions given after treatment.

Should I continue regular dental check-ups while Dr. Pallab Kishore is managing my braces?

Yes. Orthodontic follow-up and routine dental care have different purposes.

An orthodontic appointment primarily monitors tooth movement, bite, and the appliance, while general dental check-ups remain important for identifying tooth decay, gum problems, and other oral-health conditions.

Current NHS guidance specifically advises patients to continue regular dental check-ups while wearing braces and to maintain careful cleaning around the teeth and appliance.

This is especially important because plaque can accumulate more easily around fixed orthodontic appliances.

What should I ask Dr. Pallab Kishore before agreeing to braces or clear aligner treatment?

Ask for a clear explanation of:

• Your orthodontic diagnosis
• The treatment options suitable for your case
• Why a particular appliance is being recommended
• Expected follow-up requirements
• Factors that may affect treatment duration
• Oral-hygiene instructions
• Whether retention will be required
• Estimated treatment costs
• Whether investigations or additional procedures are charged separately

You may also ask what the likely consequences are if treatment is delayed or not undertaken.

Understanding the treatment plan before starting can help you make a more informed decision and understand your responsibilities during orthodontic care.
