I have never felt so at ease. From the consultation to discussing a treatment plan everyone that I came across were super friendly and completely honest in what would work for me or not. Ellie in particular was amazing, so friendly and you genuinely felt like she really cared about your treatment and reasons behind this! My partner even ended up booking treatment as well! I can’t wait for my treatment date!

No. While many dentists refer their patients to us, you can book a specialist consultation directly for private treatment in the UK.
Absolutely! Currently, 1 in 3 orthodontic patients in the UK are adults. As long as the gums and bone are healthy, teeth can be moved at any age with adult braces.
NHS treatment is free for those under the age of 18. This is limited to fixed metal braces however, and is only provided to those who meet specific clinical criteria. If you are an adult with a cosmetic-focused case, treatment is provided privately.

What is an orthodontist?
Masters in confident bites and smiles
Orthodontics is a branch within dentistry that focuses on teeth and jaw irregularities. An orthodontist is a GDC-registered dental specialist trained in the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of these issues.
Orthodontists spend five years becoming a qualified dentist, followed by three years of full-time postgraduate training in orthodontics. Using a number of treatments that range from traditional fixed braces to jaw surgery, orthodontists correct malocclusions (bad bites) and tooth alignment. The result? A smile that radiates confidence.

Why an orthodontic qualification matters
Precise diagnosis and calculated movement for guaranteed results
In the UK, both dentists and orthodontists can straighten teeth. However, having a board certification in orthodontics ensures you are receiving the very best (and safest) treatment possible.
The extensive training that orthodontists undergo improve treatment standards. Not only do they have a deeper understanding of dental anatomy, but they also know how to treat very complex alignment issues.

Why trust your YDS orthodontist?
Our GDC-registered orthodontists have years of experience
You may be wondering, why choose an orthodontist instead of a standard dentist? This type of treatment involves a significant biological change to the jaw and teeth, and orthodontists are able to effectively carry out these changes.
Our orthodontists are registered with the General Dental Council (GDC), a UK regulator of dental professionals dedicated to protecting the wellbeing of patients. We take a number of additional measures to ensure a seamless experience:
- Specialist consultation: We conduct a full health check of the gum tissues and roots, unlike quick online assessments
- Strict clinical protocol: Throughout every step of your treatment, the health of your tooth root and jawbone is our top priority
- Advanced diagnostics: We use 3D intraoral scanning and cephalometric (side profile) X-rays to measure your facial profile
- Bespoke treatment: Every bracket or aligner is positioned based on the biological limits of your bone structure
- Retention: We provide fixed and removable retainers to prevent ‘orthodontic relapse’, a major issue with non-specialist treatments
