Fixed braces consist of small, gently applied metal or ceramic brackets and wires securely bonded to your teeth. These braces work gradually and precisely to correct misalignment, close gaps, and improve your bite — helping you achieve a healthier, straighter smile.
At Dover Priory Dental, we understand that choosing fixed braces is a significant decision for patients of all ages — whether you’re a parent considering treatment for your child or an adult ready to improve your smile. Our friendly, highly experienced team is here to support you throughout your orthodontic journey. Your comfort, confidence, and long-term dental health are always our top priorities.
For those seeking a less noticeable alternative to traditional metal braces, ceramic braces offer an excellent option. Made from tooth-coloured materials, ceramic braces blend naturally with your teeth while delivering the same effective results. Our team will guide you to choose the best option for your lifestyle and treatment goals.
Some malocclusions and alignment concerns do not qualify for NHS orthodontic treatment — especially in mild or cosmetic cases. We offer private orthodontic care for:
Whether you’re 10 or 60, it’s never too early — or too late — to improve your smile.
Our specialist orthodontist and dentist bring years of experience in providing personalised orthodontic treatment tailored to your unique dental needs. We take the time to clearly explain your options and create a customised care plan, ensuring you feel informed and comfortable throughout your treatment.

Absolutely! Orthodontics is not just for children and teenagers. Adults of all ages can benefit from fixed braces to correct alignment and bite issues, improving both function and appearance.
We offer traditional metal fixed braces and discreet ceramic braces, which are tooth-coloured for a less noticeable look. Our team will help you choose the best option based on your lifestyle and treatment goals.
You can eat most foods, but it’s best to avoid very hard, sticky, or chewy foods that could damage the braces. We’ll give you detailed care instructions to protect your braces and teeth.
NHS orthodontic treatment is generally available for patients under 18 years of age who meet specific clinical criteria related to the severity of their malocclusion. This means that children and teenagers with significant orthodontic problems may qualify for NHS-funded fixed braces. However, many cases—especially mild misalignments, cosmetic concerns, or adult orthodontics—do not meet NHS eligibility.
At Dover Priory Dental, we offer private orthodontic care for patients of all ages, including those whose cases fall outside NHS criteria. Our private treatment options provide personalised solutions for malocclusions and cosmetic improvements, ensuring you receive expert care tailored to your individual needs regardless of age.
Yes! We proudly provide orthodontic treatment for children, teens, and adults throughout Dover and the surrounding areas.
Simply contact Dover Priory Dental by phone or online to schedule your consultation. Our expert team is ready to help you start your journey to a straighter, healthier smile.
