Self-Funded Treatment
Our Children & Teen package gives 18’s and under faster, more flexible access to high-quality orthodontic care — without the delays or restrictions of NHS treatment. Whether your child doesn’t meet the NHS criteria or you’d simply prefer to start sooner, this private orthodontic treatment option is designed to be straightforward, affordable, and inclusive. We offer metal fixed braces, treatment carried out by Orthodontic Therapists. It’s expert-led care tailored to your child’s needs, with kind, supportive guidance every step of the way.
There’s no need for a referral — just get in touch to book a Free Assessment. From there, we’ll provide a clear treatment plan, transparent pricing, and flexible finance options to help spread the cost. Your child will receive the same high standard of specialist care, detailed diagnostics, and aftercare support as any full-fee private patient. It’s all about giving families more choice and control over their child’s orthodontic journey.
