Braces

Your journey to a straighter smile, made simple

Straightening teeth has never been easier – or more discreet.

Gone are the days when many adults avoided braces because of bulky metal “train tracks” or multi-year treatments. Today, many smiles can be transformed in as little as six months with sleek, clear, or invisible braces.

Our treatments deliver beautifully aligned teeth without drawing attention. If you opt for clear aligners, no one will even know you’re wearing them… we promise not to tell!

What our patients say...

Braces FAQs

Am I suitable for short term orthodontics?

You need to be dentally healthy with an excellent tooth cleaning regime before braces can be provided safely. Crowns and fillings don’t mean you can’t have treatment, but tooth decay and gum disease do. If you haven’t had a dental check up in over a year you will need to book one with us or your own dentist if you have one.

We would recommend you come in for a free no obligation consultation when we can tell you if we can provide treatment for you, or whether you will need a specialist orthodontist to achieve your desired result.

Does it hurt?

The fitting, adjusting and removal of the braces is not painful, but you may find that your teeth ache for the first few days after adjustments, or after changing to a new aligner. Also the wires on fixed braces can make the cheeks sore for a week or two after they are first fitted. We provide you with special wax to put over the wires to make this more comfortable until the soreness wears off.

How long does the treatment take?

This varies depending on what the problems are that you want to correct. In general most treatments take between 4 and 9 months, but some more complex cases can take over a year. We will give you an estimate of when we think you will finish when you have your initial consultations.

Will I need to wear retainers?

Yes! Many of our patients are having braces because they stopped wearing their retainers after they had orthodontics as a child and their teeth have relapsed. Teeth move throughout life and this movement can only be minimised by wearing either a fixed retainer on the back of the teeth or a removable retainer every night, for life.

Can I eat and speak normally with my braces in?

With any brace there is a period of adaptation for a week or two. Speech normally adapts very rapidly. Note that the Inman Aligner will usually change your speech a little for the whole time you wear it.

Certain foods will need to be avoided when wearing fixed braces as they can damage the wires or brackets.

You cannot eat, or drink anything other than water, with an Inman Aligner or with Invisalign or Smilelign clear aligners in place. As these need to be worn 22 hours a day for the best effect, this means that you will not be able to snack frequently during your treatment.

Not sure whether the treatment is for you?

What happens when you work at a dental practice and need treatment...?
Your colleagues do it, of course! 🦷
 
We’d never recommend a treatment to our patients that we wouldn’t be happy to have ourselves — so when one of us needs treatment, it’s not unusual to find a colleague in the chair.
 
From routine check-ups and hygiene appointments to more complex work, we wouldn’t choose to go anywhere else. Here you can see our Patient Care Coordinator, Georgie, having composite bonding with our Dental Therapist, Mariam ✨
 
Because if we trust each other with our smiles, you can trust us with yours. 💙

Have you ever thought about what happens to your toothbrush when you throw it away..? 🪥
Unfortunately, it doesn't just disappear…

Most toothbrushes end up in landfill, meaning that nearly every toothbrush made since the 1930s is still out there in the world somewhere. And with over 3.6 billion toothbrushes thrown away every year, you can imagine the huge impact that has on our planet. 🌍

But… you can be part of the change! ♻️

Bring your used toothbrushes, empty toothpaste tubes, floss containers and interdental brushes to our practice and we’ll recycle them for you through @terracycleuk. ✨ Tell your friends, family and neighbours - you don't have to be a patient of ours to bring your recycling to us!
✨ Gemma’s smile transformation ✨

A beautiful example of how a combination of treatments can come together to create a beautifully refreshed smile. Gemma’s treatment journey included clear aligners, professional teeth whitening and composite bonding to subtly enhance her front teeth and complete her smile.

The result is one very happy patient! 🥰

"I highly recommend this practice, from the warm welcome you always receive to the outstanding treatment - it cannot be faulted. I have recently had my teeth straightened and the results have exceeded my expectations. Although I have always attended regular dental appointments it is only at NBTT that I truly feel that my teeth and oral health are properly being looked after due to the expertise of all the staff."

Our driveway improvements have finally begun! 🚧🎉

We are having our driveway resurfaced and a new ramp installed, not only giving the front of the practice a fresh new look, but also making access smoother and easier for everyone.

While the work is taking place over the next few days, our car park will remain partially open, but there will be reduced availability, so please allow a little extra time when attending for your appointment.

Thank you for your cooperation while the work is underway. We are very excited to see the finished result! ✨
Dental implants are one of our favourite treatments to deliver, because of the huge difference they can make to our patients’ confidence, comfort and quality of life. 🦷✨

Always learning, always improving! 📚

Our dentists recently spent the day with Colin Campbell at a Campbell Academy Masterclass, exploring how we can make our consultations even better for our patients.

From listening to you and understanding your individual needs, to accurate treatment planning and clear communication, the day gave us lots of ideas to bring back to the practice and help us continue delivering thoughtful, personalised care. 🦷✨

A big thank you to Colin and Chris for a fantastic day!
Receiving thank you cards from patients with such lovely words about their care is the best thing in the world. 🥰
Restoring strength and shape with Bioclear ✨

Our patient had lovely healthy teeth, but wasn’t happy with the chipped appearance. Using Bioclear, we were able to restore his teeth to a beautiful, even shape while preserving his natural tooth structure!

Bioclear is an incredibly strong way to restore teeth that have had damage from wear and tear or tooth grinding. It is a huge advance in being able to provide long lasting restorations where previously composite bonding may have chipped and worn quite quickly. 🦷

What a lovely result! 😊
