What is Orthodontics?

A closer look at the treatment.

Orthodontic treatment straightens crooked or crowded teeth and corrects bite issues, improving both appearance and long-term oral health. We offer a range of options, from clear aligners to discreet fixed braces, suited to teenagers and adults alike.

Straighter teeth are easier to clean, reducing the risk of decay and gum disease, as well as giving you a smile you feel confident sharing.

Why choose this treatment?

Designed to restore comfort, function and confidence.

Your dentist will explain the benefits, limitations and alternative treatments before you decide how to proceed.

01

Discreet Options Available

Clear aligners and tooth-coloured braces make treatment far less noticeable than traditional metal braces.

02

Improved Oral Health

Straighter teeth are easier to clean, lowering the risk of decay and gum disease.

03

Better Bite Function

Correcting alignment can ease strain on the jaw and reduce uneven tooth wear.

04

Suitable for Adults

It is never too late — many of our patients complete orthodontic treatment well into adulthood.

Is treatment suitable for you?

Every journey begins with a detailed assessment.

Suitability depends on your dental health, medical history and personal expectations.

You may be suitable when:

  • Crowded, crooked or gapped teeth
  • Bite issues such as an overbite or underbite
  • Adults who missed out on braces as a teenager

Your consultation may include:

  • A full dental and medical history
  • Assessment of your gums, bite and remaining teeth
  • Dental imaging or scans where required
  • A discussion of suitable treatment alternatives
  • A written treatment plan and personalised estimate
Your treatment journey

Carefully planned from consultation to final result.

Timescales vary between patients — your clinician will explain the likely stages for your individual case.

01

Assessment

We assess your bite and alignment and discuss suitable treatment options.

02

Digital Planning

Scans and photographs are used to plan your treatment and predict the end result.

03

Active Treatment

Aligners or braces gradually move your teeth into position, with regular check-ins.

04

Retention

A retainer keeps your teeth stable and prevents them from shifting back afterwards.

Frequently asked questions

Questions about Orthodontics.

Your consultation is the best place to receive advice based on your own oral health and medical history.

How long does treatment take?

Treatment time varies from a few months to around two years, depending on the complexity of your case.

Are clear aligners as effective as braces?

For many mild to moderate cases, clear aligners are just as effective as traditional braces, though your dentist will advise on the best option for you.

Will I need to wear a retainer afterwards?

Yes, a retainer is essential after treatment to keep your teeth in their new position.

Is orthodontic treatment painful?

Some mild discomfort is normal for a few days after adjustments, but it is generally well tolerated.

Take the first step towards a healthier smile.
