The teenage years are the perfect time to straighten your smile, and we have a number of brace options for our child patients.

Treatment options

At Helix House Orthodontics, we have no waiting lists and understand the perceived benefit of correcting protruding and crooked teeth. We have a wide range of brace choices for children, including:

Metal braces

Metal braces are a tried and true orthodontic method that can treat even complex orthodontic issues. They are also one of the most budget-friendly treatments available. Your child can have fun customising the colour of their elastic bands during treatment.

Functional braces

Functional braces are removable appliances used to correct prominent front teeth in children, which is caused by poor alignment of the jaws. Treatment with a functional brace typically takes 9-12 months. They are often used in conjunction with fixed braces to reduce the likelihood of jawbone surgery in adulthood.
