Some people are lucky and have naturally straight teeth, while others may need a little help to achieve an attractive and healthy smile.

Initial appointment
Your initial consultation will reveal how you will benefit from orthodontic treatment. It will consist of a comprehensive facial and oral examination, followed by a discussion about treatment options. We will arrange any X-rays, impressions and photographs that you need for your specific treatment plan.
Your treatment
Orthodontic appliances (usually referred to as ‘braces’) are fitted to the teeth and, over time, use constant, gentle pressure to move your teeth into their new position.
Your braces are at work throughout every moment of your treatment. Usually, we will want to see you every 6-10 weeks to check your progress and to make any necessary adjustments. As treatment progresses, we will adjust your appliance to produce an ideal alignment and ‘bite’, and give you the best possible appearance.
Aesthetic Options
For patients wanting to minimise the visibility of orthodontic braces, we offer a range of low-visibility appliances including:
Ceramic braces:
these are tooth-coloured fixed braces
Invisalign:
unlike conventional braces, this option uses virtually-invisible clear plastic trays to guide tooth movement. The trays are easy to use and comfortable to wear, and are therefore of particular appeal to adults who don’t want to be seen wearing braces

Fees
Initial consultation is £145 for adults, and £95 for children.
Treatment fees are individually assessed and depend upon the duration and complexity of your treatment.
Remember, we are pleased to offer flexible, interest-free payment plans spread over the course of your treatment.
Payment can be made by cash, cheque, debit or credit card. |
