Orthodontics

Simply book an orthodontic consultation at Holmes Dental Care and we’ll quickly be able to establish which system will be most suitable for you. We’ll also talk you through what to expect from your teeth straightening treatment in Whitchurch, and let you know about our payment options, including 0% finance.

Thanks to our high-tech treatments, in the majority of cases you won’t need to have any teeth extracted – we always take the most minimally invasive option at Holmes Dental Care. In the unlikely event that an extraction is required, we will talk you through your options and explain the process in full.

In most cases, braces don’t affect speech. Any temporary change in the way you speak will soon disappear as you become used to wearing your brace.

Contact sports or playing an instrument may take a bit of adjustment when you first wear braces. However, your braces will not stop you from doing the things you enjoy most.

In many cases, we can straighten your teeth even if you have dental crowns. We’ll confirm whether this is possible during your initial consultation.

Orthodontic treatment is generally low risk, but risks can include toothache, mild discomfort, mouth ulcers, gum infections and enamel demineralisation. At Holmes Dental Care, we monitor your progress closely and will work with our hygienist to ensure your oral health is not put at risk during treatment.
