If your child does not qualify for orthodontic treatment or you want to explore other treatment options for them, we are pleased to offer private treatment.
Having treatment privately means you can start treatment almost immediately and will have access to our full range of braces including Damon Clear and Invisalign.
The process starts with a free consultation with one of our specialist orthodontists who will undertake a thorough examination and discuss with you the best treatment options.
You will be shown the different types of braces and will have all your questions answered. You may opt for traditional braces, our most cost-effective option, or look at a brace which is almost invisible such as Damon Clear or Invisalign.
Once you have decided on which brace you would like, we will see your child again for a records appointment where accurate measurements and photographs will be taken to allow us to plan the treatment. A digital impression will be taken of your child's teeth, along with an X-Ray will also be used in the treatment planning process. We know how keen patients are to start treatment so we won’t keep you waiting and will schedule an appointment for your child’s brace to be fitted at a time that is suitable for you and them. If you have decided on Invisalign, there is an additional step where, upon receipt of your impressions, they produce an animation of all the tooth movements during treatment, this is called a ‘clin-check’, and will be used to ensure you are happy with the treatment plan before the aligners are manufactured.
Yes, Lamia & Leah are our treatment coordinators and they will look after you throughout your treatment.
Yes, several of our team have had braces or are undergoing treatment and they will be delighted to talk to you about their experience.

It’s important that you brush your teeth at least twice a day, taking time to clean around the brackets and wires with an interdental brush. It will take longer to clean your teeth but the investment in your oral health will certainly be worth it.
Most of our patients complete treatment in around 18 months but this can be longer or shorter depending on what needs to be done. We’ll let you know how long we think treatment will take at the start.
Elastics help to move certain teeth or to change the relationship between your upper and lower teeth. During the planning stage we will let you know if you are likely to need elastics.
If you have Invisalign, you can continue to eat as normal as you will take your aligners out for eating. If you have fixed braces, you need to avoid anything hard, sticky or too chewy as these can damage your brace.
We are likely to see you every four to six weeks so we can check on progress.
Yes, if you elect for traditional brackets, you can change the colours of your elastic ligatures at every appointment. If you have Damon brackets, they have a clever slide and lock mechanism so you won’t need elastic ligatures.
No, it may take you a couple of days to get used to them and there may be some minor discomfort for a few days but we find most people quickly adapt to having braces.
Extremely happy with the service received from this clinic. Everyone is patient and friendly. Specially thanks to Lamia, a young lady with passion and professional attitude, who makes my daughter and me feel at ease straight away. Also Dr Wood is brilliant!

With prices starting from just £2,499* for our traditional range of braces and generous payment instalment plans, we think orthodontic treatment is more affordable than it has ever been.
Orthodontic treatment is an investment in the long term oral health of your child not to mention the confidence a great smile gives at a time when they developing into young adults and getting ready for further education or entering employment.
Yes, it’s important that they continue to visit their dentist regularly during orthodontic treatment.
Although we will keep a close eye on their overall oral health throughout treatment, your own dentist will work closely with us ensuring their teeth remain healthy throughout treatment and long after their braces have been removed.
At the end of treatment, it is important that your child wears their retainers or all the hard work will be undone.
Braces move the teeth into the ideal position but retainers are used to keep them there! Without retainers, teeth can start to move back, this is called relapse, so wearing retainers after treatment is important if they want to keep their amazing new smile. The cost of retainers is included in the treatment fee so that’s one less thing to have to worry about.
We've helped thousands of people to get a smile they're proud to show off over the past 40 years, and we'd love to help you, too!
