Your Aesthetic Brace Consultation in North London

Aesthetic braces suit you if you want to straighten your teeth without the look of traditional metal braces. You are a good candidate if you have crooked or crowded teeth, gaps between teeth, or bite issues such as an overbite or underbite that affect how your teeth meet. Many adults in North London choose aesthetic braces for a discreet option that fits a professional lifestyle. It can also be a long-term step to improve oral hygiene, since straight teeth are easier to clean.

Your first consultation lasts about 45 minutes and focuses on you. We'll discuss what you’d like to change about your smile and your lifestyle, then perform a full dental assessment with digital photos and a 3D scan using our advanced scanner, with no impressions needed. This creates a precise digital model of your mouth. Next we review suitable options, such as Invisalign clear aligners or tooth coloured ceramic braces. We’ll show you a 3D simulation of your expected results and provide a clear plan with timeline and costs. You will leave with clear information to make an informed choice.

During the consultation we compare options for your needs. Invisalign uses a series of clear removable aligners to move your teeth. They are nearly invisible and easy to remove for meals and cleaning. Treatment with Invisalign Full usually takes 12 to 18 months. Ceramic braces work like metal braces but use clear or tooth coloured brackets, making them less noticeable. They stay fixed to your teeth and can be more effective for complex bite corrections. While ceramic braces are discreet, Invisalign remains the most invisible option. We discuss the pros and cons based on your clinical needs and lifestyle.

A 38-year-old from Highgate chose Invisalign Full to correct crowding on the lower teeth without visible braces. The treatment lasted 14 months, with visits every eight weeks at our Finchley practice. The total cost was £4,400. The discreet aligners suited her client-facing role, and she was pleased with the final result.

We aim for transparent pricing. The cost depends on the complexity and the system used. Our prices are as follows: Invisalign Lite: £3,300 for minor corrections; Invisalign Full: £4,400 for more extensive cases. Fees include all appointments, digital scans, aligners, and a final set of Vivera retainers worth £500. We are private-only and do not offer NHS orthodontics. We do accept private insurance from Max Bupa, Denplan, and Cigna. We can provide documentation to claim if your policy covers orthodontics.

To choose what works for you, ask questions whether you’re at our Finchley practice or another North London clinic. Consider these questions: What are all my aesthetic brace options and why this one? How long will total treatment take? Can you show me a 3D simulation of my results? Is the quoted price all inclusive or are there extra costs for retainers or emergency visits? What happens if an aligner breaks or a bracket comes off? How often will check-ups occur? What payment plan options do you offer?
