How Fixed Braces Work
Fixed braces consist of brackets attached to your teeth. We thread a wire through the brackets. Tension along this wire causes your teeth to move. We’ll adjust this tension throughout your treatment, guiding your teeth into the perfect position.
We can use fixed braces to fix the following:
- Overcrowded smiles
- Gaps between teeth
- Crooked teeth
We can also help with bite problems like overbite, crossbite, underbite, open bite, deep bite, and more.
Your Fixed Braces Journey
Consultation
We’ll begin your fixed brace treatment by assessing your jaw and teeth. Understanding your needs helps us plan every step of your smile journey.
During this consultation, we’ll discuss your treatment in-depth and you can put questions, concerns and queries to opur team, led by multi-award-winning orthodontic specialist Dr Jeet Parekh.
Treatment durations vary depending on the severity of your case. We’ll let you know your expected treatment length during this consultation.
Fitting
We’ll invite you back to the clinic for your brace fitting later.
During your treatment, it’s essential to maintain high standards of dental hygiene and avoid eating or chewing anything that could damage your brace.
Adjustments
We’ll adjust your brace periodically to get the best results from your treatment. Increasing the tension on the wire will move your teeth closer to their end goal.

Rave Reviews
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!
With the sorry state of my teeth, being embarrassed and somewhat scared, the staff at Smile HQ have gone above and beyond themselves in making me always feel at ease. Talking me through all the different stages that they are doing. I really couldn’t ask for better people. I would HIGHLY recommend it to anybody. You will not go wrong choosing Smile HQ.
What an amazing experience I had from start to finish. The facilities were first of all immaculate and the staff were so professional and friendly. I am over the moon with my final result (8 composite veneers) and I couldn’t be happier with the work completed by Dr Pola Reza. A big thank you to the dental assistant Claire, and the Front of House staff Hannah & Holly for making my experience so amazing. Couldn’t recommend them more!
Receptionist Kiera is an absolute delight to talk to. So refreshing from your ordinary rude front of house receptionists, lovely attitude and very helpful.
Absolutely fantastic treatment from start to finish. My daughter was extremely anxious about having root canal treatment, but says she could barely feel anything. Rose (Endodontist) has a very professional and calming manner. The whole experience was the best experience my daughter has had at a dental practice. Belle (Nurse) was also so kind and caring, helping to completely put my daughter at ease. I can’t recommend Smile HQ and its staff enough. Also ladies on reception go above and beyond to Welcome you and put you at ease. Special mention to Hannah, for helping us get the quickest correct type of appointment, thoroughly answering all our questions. Seamless experience 😊
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.
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!! 🙂
Fantastic clinic. Very friendly, helpful and caring staff and clinicians. The practice has been beautifully designed and doesn’t make you feel like you’re sitting in a dental practice which is a massive bonus. Would highly recommend this clinic to anyone looking for high standard and quality dental care.
