There are several options available for orthodontic treatment and our knowledgeable orthodontist will discuss these in detail. Our most popular dental braces include:
Fixed metal braces
Fixed metal braces are the traditional way of straightening teeth. Metal brackets are attached to the front of your teeth which are connected with thin metal wires. At regular intervals during your orthodontic treatment, our orthodontist will tighten the wires to maintain pressure on your teeth until they have gradually moved into their correct position.
Fixed metal braces remain a popular orthodontic option for patients throughout Kensington, Chelsea and Notting Hill because they:
· Straighten teeth accurately
· Treat mild through to the most severe orthodontic cases
· Remain one of the more affordable forms of teeth straightening
Prices for fixed metal braces range from £2,900 for one arch or from £3,900 for both upper and lower sets of teeth.
Fixed ceramic braces
Fixed ceramic braces are similar to fixed metal braces; they use fixed brackets which are attached to the teeth for the duration of orthodontic treatment but instead of being made of metal, they are made of a ceramic material which is tooth coloured and so are much more discreet.
Prices for fixed ceramic braces range from £3,100 for one arch or from £4,500 for both upper and lower sets of teeth.
Invisalign braces
Invisalign braces are a different form of orthodontic treatment. These braces are made up of a series of thin, plastic aligners which you change on a weekly basis to move your teeth into position. They are not fixed to the teeth. Invisalign is popular with patients throughout Chelsea, Notting Hill, Kensington and London because:
· They straighten teeth practically invisibly
· These braces are removable – you take them out to eat, drink and brush your teeth
· Orthodontic treatment is quick with most patients finishing treatment within 12 months
· Invisalign braces are comfortable to wear
Prices for Invisalign braces range from £2,000 to £4,500
Lingual braces
Lingual braces are a form of fixed brace orthodontic treatment. The main difference with these braces is that the brackets are applied to the back of your teeth so that they cannot be seen. They are growing in popularity with patients throughout Notting Hill, Chelsea, Kensington and London because:
· They straighten teeth precisely
· They can be used for mild through to severe orthodontic cases
· They are extremely discreet, and most people won’t notice you’re wearing braces
Prices for lingual braces range from £6,000 to £8,500
