Braces, Aligners & Smile Alignment
Straighter teeth with braces or clear aligners
Our orthodontic team treats crowded, spaced or protruding teeth with a choice of traditional braces and discreet clear aligner systems.
Treatment options
Conventional braces
Time-tested metal or ceramic brackets with wires that gradually align your teeth and bite.
Clear aligner therapy
A series of transparent trays designed using digital planning software that straighten teeth with minimal impact on your lifestyle.
Computer-assisted crowns & bite adjustments
In selected cases, crowns and minor reshaping are used along with orthodontics to optimise the way upper and lower teeth meet.
Retainers & orthodontic aftercare
After active treatment, retainers keep your teeth in their new positions while the supporting bone and gums stabilise. We provide clear and fixed retainer options and review schedules.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between braces and clear aligners?
Braces are fixed brackets and wires that work continuously, while clear aligners are removable transparent trays. Braces suit complex movements and are always active; aligners are more discreet and easier to clean but require discipline in wearing them 20-22 hours a day.
How long does orthodontic treatment take?
Most treatments last 12-24 months depending on the complexity of the case. After treatment, retainers are used to keep your teeth in their new positions.
At what age can braces or aligners be started?
There is no upper age limit for orthodontics. Children may start early guidance around 7-10 years, while many adults get braces or clear aligners in their 30s, 40s and beyond.
