Teeth Straightening
Teeth straightening covers several orthodontic systems: Invisalign, SmileTRU clear positioners and fixed braces, chosen to suit your teeth, lifestyle and budget. Straighter teeth are also easier to clean and can reduce strain on your bite over time, and every course starts with a consultation to compare your options.
What it is and who it's for
Teeth straightening improves the appearance and function of your bite using one of several orthodontic systems: Invisalign, SmileTRU or fixed braces. It suits anyone with crooked, gapped or crowded teeth, whatever their age, and the right system is chosen to match your case and lifestyle.
How treatment works
-
Consultation
We assess your bite and discuss which system fits your case and lifestyle: Invisalign, SmileTRU or fixed braces. For Invisalign, a digital 3D scan with our iTero scanner captures your mouth in detail to plan treatment precisely.
-
Fitting
Your chosen appliance is fitted, or your first set of aligners issued, with a schedule for wear and changes.
-
Reviews
Regular reviews track how your teeth are moving and adjust the plan as needed.

Common questions
What orthodontic options are available?
We offer several systems, including Invisalign clear aligners, SmileTRU clear positioners, and fixed braces, so treatment can be matched to what suits your teeth, lifestyle and budget.
What is SmileTRU?
SmileTRU is a series of clear, removable positioners, an alternative to fixed braces for most people, with little day-to-day impact and the option to remove them to eat and drink.
Are fixed braces still an option?
Yes. Modern fixed braces use smaller, less noticeable brackets than in the past, with heat-activated archwires that use your body heat to help teeth move more comfortably. Coloured bands are popular with children who like to express themselves, while tooth-coloured bands and clear brackets suit anyone after a more discreet look.
