When you need an orthodontic opinion, assessment or treatment it makes sense to use Orthodontic Specialists who have specialist orthodontic qualifications and extensive orthodontic experience. You should only be seeking orthodontic treatment once, so make sure it is carried out by experts with an in-depth knowledge. We offer the full range of NHS and Private treatment for Children and Adults including clear aligners, invisible (lingual) braces, clear fast acting braces, cosmetic braces and ceramic braces.
Whilst some treatments can be completed in 6 months, most treatments will take from 12 to 18 months as we do not just change the alignment of your teeth without ensuring that the root structures have also been properly aligned. We do not use products and methods which advertise a quick perfect smile as we are focused on delivering long term solutions to your orthodontic issues.
If you do not qualify for NHS treatment we have affordable payment options available.
