There are 2 different types of orthodontic treatments carried out within in the practice.
- Clear Aligners
- Fixed Braces
Clear Aligners
These are often known as “invisible braces”. This system is also removable and uses a series of Clear Aligners which are replaced ever 7-14 days. Each aligner is a slightly different shape, and guides the teeth into the ideal position. Treatment time is governed by the severity of the case and the number of aligners needed.
Prices starting from £2500
Fixed Braces
This system uses fixed white or metal brackets and white or metal wires to move the teeth. This system offers the best control of tooth movements and is therefore more useful for complex cases and traditionally faster for standard cases. Treatment time varies for each individual case, with monthly appointments to make minor adjustments.
Prices starting from £1950
Once the orthodontic treatment has been completed and you are happy with the final results, the teeth will need to be retained so that they do not relapse back to their original position. Retention costs start at £85 per arch.
