Services
Clear Aligners
Clear aligners offer a discreet, comfortable alternative to traditional braces using custom-designed, removable trays. Our Invisalign system gently repositions teeth over 6-18 months, allowing normal eating and oral hygiene. Regular check-ups ensure precise progress tracking for optimal results.
Fixed Braces
Traditional fixed braces provide reliable tooth movement for complex cases. We use high-quality materials with periodic adjustments to correct alignment issues efficiently. This treatment suits patients requiring significant bite correction or severe crowding solutions.
Teeth Whitening
Our professional whitening treatments deliver brighter smiles using eco-conscious methods. Custom trays and safe bleaching agents ensure even results while protecting enamel. The process typically completes within 2-4 weeks with take-home kits supervised by our specialists.
Retainers
We provide custom-fitted retainers to maintain post-treatment alignment. Both removable Essix and bonded options ensure long-term stability. Our team offers comprehensive care instructions to maximise treatment longevity and prevent relapse.
Lingual Braces
Lingual braces offer invisible correction by positioning brackets behind teeth. Our Incognito system combines aesthetic benefits with precise movement control. This solution suits professionals and image-conscious patients seeking discreet orthodontic treatment.
