Fixed Braces - Traditional Style
Attached to the outside surfaces of the teeth.
Metal brackets remain an option, but many patients now choose small, discreet clear or porcelain brackets instead.
Using records from your initial consultation, our clinical team works with our lab technicians to pre-set each component before fitting, for a faster, more accurate, more comfortable result.
Our orthodontist creates a treatment plan and schedule to suit your lifestyle, always using gentle, low-force movements for minimal discomfort.
Fixed braces suit nearly every dental problem and can be used at any age.
Lingual Braces -
A Bespoke Option
Adhered to the inside surfaces of the teeth, for complete discretion, so you can carry on with daily life while your smile gradually transforms.
These are entirely bespoke, manufactured in Germany using the latest CAD-CAM technology, refined by our orthodontist and approved lab team for the best possible fit.
Lingual braces can have limitations and may not suit everyone — this will be confirmed at your consultation.
Lingual braces are adhered to the inside surfaces of the teeth for complete discretion, providing you with the confidence to carry on with day to day life and allowing the gradual changes to be observed as they happen.

Clear Aligners-
The modern Alternative
A series of clear custom-fitted trays worn over the teeth, each one slightly different from the last, gradually moving your teeth into position.
Aligners are almost unnoticeable and removable for brushing and flossing.
Before manufacture, a 3D simulation maps your treatment, so you can see the planned movements and finished result before committing.
Not every case is suitable for aligners alone — some complex movements are better suited to fixed braces.

Hygiene & Care - You’re well looked after
We will only place braces or aligners in healthy, well looked-after mouths, and oral hygiene is closely supervised throughout treatment.
After fitting, we encourage a hygienist visit, where you'll receive a personalised cleaning plan and useful cleaning aids for your mouth and appliance.
We ask all orthodontic patients to keep up regular dental and hygiene visits with their general dentist throughout treatment — this holistic approach is essential for good oral health.
Braces and aligners themselves don't damage teeth, but poor oral hygiene and sugary foods and drinks can, so thorough daily cleaning matters throughout.
What About Retainers?
After treatment, your teeth are maintained with a combination of fixed and removable retainers.
Fixed retainers are tiny wires fitted behind your front teeth — usually the first four to six teeth in the upper and lower arches.
Retention is an integral part of treatment; we offer to monitor retainers for a minimum of 12 months after fitting.
We believe this is the most important phase of treatment — the correct method and supervision of retention guarantees life-long results.
