Eltz braces
Orthodontic expertise since 1984 — Eltz Institut für Zahnregulierung.
Specialists in orthodontic treatment for adults
At the Eltz Institut, we have specialised in treating misaligned teeth in adults since 1984. With over 20,000 successfully treated patients, we are one of the largest orthodontic practices not only in Vienna but in all of Europe. Our invisible braces are designed to fit perfectly into the typical everyday life of adults, and our payment in instalments makes them simply affordable.
At the Eltz Institut, you are treated by specialist orthodontists, so you can rely on the greatest possible expertise and the highest possible quality of treatment.
Yes we can!
Where others shake their heads, we’re only just getting started. At the Eltz Institut, we specialise in adults — and adults means invisible, because no adult wants to stand out with their braces among family and friends, at work or during leisure activities. That’s why our treatment is as fast, straightforward and invisible as possible.
We get your teeth back on track
At the Eltz Institut, we correct all types of misaligned teeth, drawing on the full range of orthodontic tricks of the trade — something you’ll miss at budget providers. In your free consultation, you’ll get all the important information about your misaligned teeth and your treatment options.
Crowding
With crowding, the teeth overlap one another. In some cases the misalignment is so pronounced that teeth stand almost one behind the other.
Gaps between teeth
Gaps between the teeth often considerably affect the appearance, the smile and how well the teeth function.
Open bite
With an open bite, the front teeth of the upper and lower jaw don’t touch each other — even when you bite down.
Protrusion
When the front teeth “tip out” forwards, this is called protrusion. It is often associated with inflammation of the gums.
Crossbite
With a lateral crossbite, the lower back teeth bite over the upper back teeth.
Overjet
Here the lower jaw sits too far back, leaving a gap between the upper and lower incisors.
Underbite
With an underbite, the lower jaw bites too far in front of the upper jaw. The incisors sometimes meet edge to edge.
Cover bite
The cover bite is a special type of distal bite. Some of the upper front teeth tilt backwards and the others tilt forwards.
Other misalignment
Do you have a different kind of misalignment? We’re confident that we can help you.

Result guaranteed
We stand behind our work. At the Eltz Institut, we guarantee the result of your treatment, so that you can start your aligner treatment with us with confidence and without risk.
After an unsuccessful orthodontic treatment at another dental institute, I ended up with Dr. Hodecker. He did wonderful work, very competent and professional. I am now very happy — I wouldn’t have thought it possible that the result would turn out so beautifully.
3D simulation
With our advanced 3D simulation technology, you can see the expected result before your treatment begins. This helps you make informed decisions about straightening your teeth.
An aesthetically beautiful result
It’s not just function that counts — appearance matters too. We make sure that the result of your braces treatment is not only medically correct but also aesthetically pleasing.
A medically safe result
At the Eltz Institut, safety and health always come first. Our treatments follow the strictest medical standards to guarantee you a safe and effective result. From our experience with costly follow-up treatments for patients who previously bought cheap aligners, we know that this is unfortunately not a given.
Frequently asked questions
Here you’ll find some of the questions our patients ask us most often.
Treatment time with braces for adults ranges from 4 months for simple gaps or crowding to 24 months for very complex tooth and jaw misalignments. We can tell you how long it will take in your case as early as the free initial consultation.
The costs of braces are generally based on the autonomous fee guidelines of the Austrian Dental Chamber (Zahnärztekammer) and are therefore predefined. Depending on the type and severity of the misalignment, the amount comes out slightly differently, so it can’t be stated exactly before the free initial consultation.
Of course — at the Eltz Institut we even offer financing for your braces for up to 60 months. Most of our patients really appreciate our straightforward payment in instalments.
The Eltz Institut is one of the certified orthodontic institutes. If your health insurance fund or insurer pays a subsidy towards orthodontic treatment, you can claim it at our institute. We help you get the maximum possible reimbursement.
Yes, Eltz braces can be claimed in your income tax return.
Our state-of-the-art orthodontic methods are almost pain-free. When you switch to a new invisible aligner, you may feel some pressure, but for most patients this goes away within a few minutes. You don’t need to fear typical dentist pain — there’s none of that with us!
You come in for a check-up roughly every two to three months. It only takes a few minutes, and we make sure that your treatment is going perfectly.
Our institute is located at Dorotheergasse 7, 1010 Vienna, just a 2-minute walk from Stephansplatz and 5 minutes from Karlsplatz/Oper. This makes it very easy to reach on the U1, U2, U3 and U4 underground lines, by the trams on the Ring, and by car. More information here.
