Children’s Orthodontics
Get a Free Early-Years Assessment for Your Loved-One
Dental development during your child’s growing years can have lifelong oral health impacts.
Early interceptive care from SmileHQ allows our specialist-led team to plan treatments to support natural, healthy development alongside discreet orthodontic treatments for teens and young people.
And because we believe effective care starts early, we offer a free assessment with our orthodontic team for every SmileHQ patient under 16.
The American Association of Orthodontics recommends the first visit by age seven. However, visiting at age 4-6 is common—especially if your child’s dentist has cause for concern.
BOOK CONSULTATIONEarly Interceptive Orthodontics
Around the ages of six to seven, when young people’s adult dentition begins to develop, are particularly crucial years.
Spotting developmental challenges could save your loved one from needing expensive orthodontic treatment later in life as simple problems turn into more severe issues like protruding teeth and malocclusion.
Early interceptive orthodontics ensures the healthy development of your child’s teeth and jaws so they can get on with growing up.
The American Association of Orthodontics recommends an assessment before age seven. However, it’s often possible to spot potential problems from as early as four years of age. Whatever your loved ones’ age, peace of mind with a free early assessment from SmileHQ won’t cost you a penny.
Teen & Young People’s Orthodontics
Each year in the UK, around 20,00 children and young people are told their orthodontic issues aren’t severe enough to qualify for NHS treatment.
Those who are lucky enough to meet the NHS’ strict criteria often face waits of up to two years or longer to receive vital basic care—usually with intrusive fixed braces.
If your child has been refused care or is currently on the waiting list, you’ll know how frustrating it is to leave your child’s wellbeing in NHS hands.
A free assessment at SmileHQ can put your child’s oral health back on track, ensuring healthy development, perfect aesthetics, and discreet treatment that won’t leave them feeling self-conscious in the classroom.

Rave Reviews
This is a wonderful practice. I was seen at short notice because I was in pain and could not get an appointment with my regular dentist and it was well worth the one hour journey to get there. Dr Sasha, Nurse Stephie and Holly and Claire on reception could not have been more welcoming and kind. I had x Ray and antibiotics and everything was unhurried and explained in detail. Thank you all so much.
Couldn’t be happier with the care and treatment I’ve received at Smile HQ. All the staff are extremely welcoming and helpful, excellent customer service! I couldn’t be happier with my new smile thanks to Dr Pola and his team! Felt so comfortable and at ease with pola. He was very professional and did an amazing job!
The atmosphere was so peaceful. The staff are friendly and welcoming. They listened to my needs and considered my comfort every step of the way. I would definitely recommend. I felt so confident walking out after just one clean. Already have my next appointments booked in. Now going to the dentist isn’t so scary.
Hygiene appointment – both the hygienist and nurse were very friendly and informative, they made the appointment feel very easy and eased my nerves immediately. Very professional and not only do my teeth feel great after but I have some useful tips to help me maintain a great clean. Thank you again ladies, 10/10 highly recommend!! :)
I had the best experience at Smile HQ. The customer service was excellent and everyone was very professional and friendly. Pola and Charlotte made me feel very comfortable during my treatment and my end results are amazing!
I have visited SmileHQ for a consultation only, so cannot comment on actual treatment received at this point. However, from my initial enquiry through to my consultation, I have been extremely impressed by the friendliness and professionalism of all of the staff I have so far encountered. There has been no pressure to proceed with treatment and the refundable deposit for the consultation should you decide not to go ahead is commendable and shows an element of the ethos at this practice. I feel very confident in their ability and expertise in this field to eventually make me smile again and would highly recommend anyone taking the first steps on their own personal journey with SmileHQ.
Couldn’t recommend Pola and his team enough. Pola is thorough and explains everything and makes you feel in safe hands. The girls are also amazing, massive thanks to Hannah for everything she helped me set my app up and the aftercare is amazing. Claire is so lovely and personable every visit and Sophie is brilliant during my sessions with Pola.
My experience at Smile HQ was the best!! Sasha and Charlotte were amazing from start to finish. They made me feel so comfortable and at ease, I would highly highly recommend going here! I had composite bonding and I am over the moon with my results. They really listen to what you are after and if anything exceeds all expectations. I’m very happy!
