ABOUT PLYMOUTH ORTHODONTICS LIMITED

In the past orthodontic treatment was most commonly associated with children. And although treatment ideally starts at a young age, these days orthodontics can be successfully provided for adults, giving everyone the opportunity to make the most of their natural smile!

For adults, orthodontic treatment means that you can avoid extensive tooth trimming required for traditional cosmetic dental treatments, such as crowns or veneers. We can also work with your general dentist to provide the best result, e.g. braces can be used to move teeth to an ideal position before an implant or bridge is placed.

At Plymouth Orthodontics we can also offer the latest in aesthetic braces so that you can remain confident during your treatment. Your choices include conventional stainless steel braces, aesthetic braces using crystal clear sapphire brackets, or almost invisible clear aligner braces. We also offer totally invisible lingual braces.
