A two-minute collection of smile transformations, all treated with braces by Dr Sarah Sadek.

Results vary from person to person. Book a consultation at Waterloo Dental to talk through what would work for you.

Questions we often hear

Can adults get the same results as teenagers?

Adults can have excellent results. Teeth may move a little more slowly, and healthy gums are essential.

What is a bite problem?

It is when the top and bottom teeth do not meet as they should, such as an overbite, underbite or crossbite.

Is orthodontic treatment available on the NHS for adults?

NHS orthodontics is generally for under-18s who qualify. Adults usually have private treatment.
