Modern orthodontics offers discreet, comfortable treatment for children, teenagers and adults alike. Metal braces, ceramic braces and clear aligners are used to correct crowding, spacing, overbite, underbite and crossbite — improving both your smile's appearance and your long-term oral health by making teeth far easier to clean properly.

Why Choose This Speciality
Discover the benefits and advantages of this treatment approach
Effective at Any Age
Orthodontic treatment is not just for teenagers — adult orthodontics is one of the fastest-growing areas of dentistry.
Clear Aligner Options
Nearly invisible removable aligners straighten teeth without fixed metal brackets — popular with adults and professionals.
Corrects Bite Problems
Overbite, underbite and crossbite corrections reduce jaw joint strain, headaches and uneven tooth wear.
Easier Oral Hygiene
Straight teeth have no overlapping surfaces where plaque hides — dramatically reducing cavity and gum disease risk.
Ceramic Braces
Tooth-coloured brackets are far less visible than metal braces while delivering the same precision.
Retainer Phase
A simple removable retainer after treatment keeps your result permanent with minimal effort.
Treatment Process
Step-by-step guide to what you can expect during treatment
Orthodontic consultation — X-rays, photographs and study models to assess teeth and jaw position.
Treatment planning — selecting the best appliance type for your case, timeline and lifestyle.
Fitting appointment — brackets bonded or first aligner set provided, with full instructions.
Regular adjustment visits (typically every 4–8 weeks) to monitor progress and make changes.
Refinement phase — minor tooth movements are fine-tuned toward the end of treatment.
Retainer fitting — custom retainers placed immediately after braces are removed.
Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about this treatment answered by our specialists
Q:How long does orthodontic treatment take?
Treatment duration ranges from 6 months for mild cases to 2 years for complex corrections. Your specialist will give you a personalised timeline at the consultation.
Q:Are clear aligners as effective as braces?
For mild to moderate cases, yes. For complex bite corrections or significant crowding, fixed braces may still be the more predictable choice. Your orthodontist will advise which is appropriate for your case.
Q:Is orthodontic treatment painful?
Some soreness for 2–3 days after each adjustment is normal as teeth begin moving. It is manageable with over-the-counter pain relief and settles quickly.
Q:Do I need to wear a retainer forever?
Retainers are typically worn full-time for 6 months, then nights-only indefinitely. This prevents natural relapse and protects your investment.
