Helping smiles shine brighter with trusted braces in Central London
Fixed braces in Central London
At London Orthodontic Clinic, we understand that every patient has different orthodontic needs. While clear aligners are popular, fixed braces remain one of the most reliable treatments for achieving precise results. We provide both traditional metal braces and discreet ceramic braces – offering families in Central London, Angel, Old Street, City Road and Shoreditch the choice that best suits their lifestyle.
Metal braces:
Traditional stainless steel braces use small brackets and wires to guide teeth into the correct position. They are highly effective, especially for complex orthodontic cases, and today’s designs are smaller, more comfortable and more efficient than ever.
Ceramic braces:
Ceramic braces work in the same way as metal braces but use tooth-coloured or clear brackets that blend with natural teeth. They are a popular choice for teenagers and adults who want a more discreet option while still benefiting from the strength of a fixed appliance.
