Free consultations
We recognise the decision to have braces is a big one, so we offer free, no-obligation consultations at all our Total Orthodontics practices. You’ll get to speak to an experienced member of your local team, who will advise what type of treatment you might be suitable for and answer all your questions.
If you decide to have treatment with us, we’ll talk you through the next steps.
And there’s more…
We offer a one-year guarantee† with all our teeth straightening treatments, so you can rest assured your smile is in safe hands
As well as private treatment, we accept NHS referrals for under 18s who are referred by their general dentist
What to expect
At your consultation, we will chat through your options and suitability for different teeth straightening treatments.
*Terms and conditions:
1. Free consultations are to discuss options and suitability for treatment. You may require a more in-depth clinical examination or diagnostic tests before treatment options can be discussed. There may be a charge for such examination or test, payable by you. The clinician will discuss this with you before any such examination or test takes place, which may be done during the same appointment as your free consultation.
2. Children under 18 can be referred for a free NHS assessment, subject to availability of appointments. Private consultations for children are excluded from this offer and will be charged at our standard rate but the charge will be refunded to you in full if the child commences private treatment following the consultation.
3. Consultations subject to availability.
4. Free consultations available at participating practices only.
We recognise that when you give us personal information (which includes health information) you’re trusting us to take good care of it. Please see www.bupa.co.uk/privacy for more information about how we collect, use and protect your data.
