How Braces Treatment Works

1

Free Consultation

We assess your teeth, take photos and X-rays, and discuss your goals. You will receive a personalised treatment plan with a clear timeline and cost.

2

Fitting Your Braces

Brackets are bonded to your teeth and an archwire threaded through them. This appointment takes around 60–90 minutes and is completely painless.

3

Regular Adjustments

You visit us every 6–8 weeks for wire changes and adjustments. Each visit your teeth move closer to their final, ideal position.

4

Retainers

Once braces are removed, retainers keep your teeth in their new position. Wearing your retainer as instructed ensures your results last a lifetime.

Expert Orthodontics.
Lasting Results.

Our GDC-registered orthodontists are experienced in treating patients of all ages. We use high-quality self-ligating brackets that reduce friction and can speed up treatment time while improving comfort.

We also offer tooth-coloured ceramic brackets as a more discreet alternative to traditional metal braces — delivering the same clinical outcome with a less visible appearance.

  • Traditional metal and tooth-coloured ceramic options
  • Self-ligating brackets for greater comfort
  • Suitable for teenagers and adults
  • Finance available from £30/month

Braces FAQs

How long does brace treatment take? +

Treatment time varies from 12 to 24 months depending on the complexity of your case. Simple cases can be completed in as little as 6–9 months. Your orthodontist will give you a personalised estimate at your consultation.

Do braces hurt? +

Braces do not hurt to fit, but your teeth may be sore for 2–4 days after each adjustment as they begin to move. This is completely normal and manageable with over-the-counter pain relief.

What can I not eat with braces? +

You should avoid hard, crunchy and sticky foods that could damage brackets or get stuck in the wires. Apples, crusty bread and toffees should be avoided or cut into small pieces.

Are braces suitable for adults? +

Absolutely — teeth can be straightened at any age. Many of our patients are adults who missed orthodontic treatment as teenagers or whose teeth have shifted over time.

What happens when braces come off? +

Once your braces are removed, we will fit you with retainers — either fixed wire retainers bonded behind your teeth or removable clear retainers — to keep your teeth in their new position permanently.
