Fixed Braces Monmouth, South Wales

Serving patients throughout Monmouthshire and wales

Fixed braces have been a popular straightening teeth solution for decades because of their effective and predictable results. Whilst they are suitable for treating simple cases, for some complex orthodontic problems there’s still no competition for traditional fixed braces.

What’s involved?

With a fixed solution, our teeth straightening dentist, Dr Ben or Dr Jason will carefully bond brackets to your teeth, before joining them together with a wire which gradually aligns your teeth into a straighter position. You’ll need to see Dr Ben or Dr Jason every 6 to 8 weeks to change your wire and check on progress.

Treatment times vary depending on your individual alignment needs. For simple cases this could be just a few months, but for more complex movements, it usually takes between 12 months and two years to achieve your beautiful new smile. Dr Ben or Dr Jason will give you an idea of how long your teeth straightening treatment may take during your initial consultation.

Bold or discreet… your fixed braces options:

Metal braces and wires

The classic, most recognisable brace. Following recent advances in technology, our fixed metal braces at The Mayhill Dental and Specialist Centre now use low profile brackets and wires for added comfort.

Clear braces

Often referred to as ceramic braces, tooth coloured braces or invisible braces, our clear braces at The Mayhill Dental and Specialist Centre use clear brackets and tooth coloured wires for added discretion. They get the same great results as conventional metal braces – but they’re much harder to spot.

3 simple steps to a beautifully aligned smile:

  1. Consultation and planning
    After an initial consultation Dr Ben or Dr Jason will take photos, X-rays and digital scans, or a dental impression, of your teeth. These records will take precise measurements to make your personal brackets and wires.
  2. Transformation
    Once your brackets and wires are ready, Dr Ben or Dr Jason will fit them ensuring they are comfortable, so you can begin your straightening journey.

    You’ll need to return to see Dr Ben or Dr Jason every 6 to 8 weeks to check on your progress and change your wire, to slowly guide your teeth into position.
  3. Retaining your new smile
    Once your new smile is achieved, you’ll need to wear a retainer to ensure your teeth remain beautifully aligned. Retainers can either be removable clear trays, similar to a mouth guard, or a fixed retainer which are discreetly attached to the back of the teeth for continual support.

If you are looking for fixed braces or clear braces in Monmouthshire and wales and want to know more about your options, get in touch to arrange a consultation at The Mayhill Dental and Specialist Centre.

I was extremely impressed by the professionalism and compassion demonstrated by both the dentist and the manager who were present during my treatment. They were attentive to my needs, made every effort to ensure I was at ease, and provided a high standard of care throughout the entire procedure, which made the experience exceptionally comfortable and reassuring.

I've had invisaligns treatment. Work carried out prior to starting the course was exceptional and so far the past 12 weeks have gone very well. Very happy with my treatment and care.

This is the best dental practice I’ve ever used and as I’m a few decades old, I’ve been to a lot of them! Everyone is so incredibly friendly and professional. The reception team are always like seeing old friends again because of the warmth of their approach and the building is always spotless. I see Ben Cross for Invisalign treatment and he’s made a huge difference to my life. So many dentist have told me my jaw was the issue and nothing could be done. I would never smile properly for photos and was so conscious when I spoke in meetings or delivered presentations. Yet here I am with my teeth almost perfect. I love the change it’s made, I love how Ben had managed my care and I’m so, so incredibly grateful to have been given my smile back.

Dr Ben is amazing! He’s so talented, gentle, polite, kind and explained everything with me so detailed and so helpful! The receptionists are outstanding too, very friendly, polite and helpful
