During Treatment

This step in your treatment journey is an exciting one. It comprises of fitting appointments and regular adjustments. A fitting appointment will be one of the longer appointments with us, usually about 1 hour. During this time we’ll explain how to look after your braces and clean your teeth while wearing them. While you are undergoing treatment, you’ll need to come in for regular adjustment to your braces at least once every 6-8 weeks. This will ensure you keep to the minimum amount of time for treatment which is usually 18-24 months.

After Treatment

After your appliance has been removed, you will have to wear retainers to ensure your teeth don’t return to their original position. Your treatment includes 2 years of aftercare* to ensure your teeth remain in place with a beautiful and healthy smile.
