Questions about this topic

What happens on the day braces come off?

The brackets are gently removed, the glue is polished away and your retainers are fitted or measured for.

Will I need to wear a retainer?

Yes. Retainers keep your teeth in their new position. We will explain how and when to wear them.

Can I have braces on the NHS as an adult?

NHS orthodontic treatment is generally for under-18s who meet the eligibility criteria. Adults can have private treatment, with 0% finance available.
