At Vermilion, we provide cutting-edge orthodontic treatments for patients of all ages, tailored to meet your specific needs and goals. Our bespoke treatment plans ensure you achieve the smile you deserve.
Our cosmetic dentistry treatments are designed to enhance your smile and boost your confidence. Whether you choose aligner therapy, lingual braces or fixed braces, our customised solutions cater to all ages – children, teens and adults – sometimes delivering impressive results in as little as 6 months.
We understand that life can be busy. With the aid of cutting-edge technology such as Dental Monitoring, we offer new-generation treatment options that fit around you and your lifestyle including:
Aligner therapy gives you the option to straighten your teeth discreetly. These aligners, also referred to as invisible braces, work over a period of time – determined by our orthodontic clinician– to discreetly straighten your teeth into their ideal position.
We use a number of aligner brands such as Angel Aligners, Suresmile and Invisalign®.
If you’re looking for a discreet alternative to traditional fixed braces, clear braces are a great option for you. Clear braces work just like traditional fixed braces, except the brackets are made of ceramic instead of metal. The ceramic is durable and tooth-coloured, so it will blend in with the natural colour of your smile.
The ‘original’ orthodontic treatment, fixed braces have changed a lot since the very first models; they are smaller, more discreet, more comfortable and more effective. Using a system of brackets, archwires and elastics, traditional braces are made of metal and are fixed to the front of each tooth with a strong adhesive. A metal archwire runs through the brackets, which are all held together with elastic bands.
Another discreet alternative are our lingual braces. Bonded behind the teeth making them truly invisible. Lingual braces are customised to each individual treatment.
There are steps that can be taken to guide your child’s growing smile that can often reduce the cost and length of orthodontic treatment that they may need in their teenage years.
Your child may not be ready for orthodontic treatment at this age, and our specialist team will only recommend treatment if it is necessary. We would suggest that your child’s teeth and jaws are monitored regularly by their dentist to determine the best time to begin treatment.
Treatment options available to younger patients:
Braces for children and teenagers
At Vermilion, we have options of braces for children and teens of all ages. Our team is skilled at treating smiles for patients at their optimal ages for orthodontic treatment.
Aligners Kids Phase I
One of the early orthodontic treatments we offer is Angel Kids. Angel Kids is an Angel aligners treatment option for children at primary and secondary school age. The custom aligners are designed to guide the growth of your child’s jaw and make room for current and incoming teeth.
Clear aligners for children and teenagers
A good introduction to orthodontic treatment, clear aligners are a very comfortable solution to straightening your child or teenager’s teeth and have very little to no impact on your child’s eating, brushing and flossing.
Sarah’s Story
Even though people would say to me that I had a nice smile – my front teeth are straight and I have had them whitened in the past – I was actually really unhappy with my smile. Now that I have finished treatment, the results definitely match my expectations.

At Vermilion, we want to ensure that you have the very best orthodontic treatment experience, so we have paired together with Retainers 4 Life, a retainer provider.
Following the completion of your orthodontic treatment with Vermilion, we would recommend that you replace your retainers every so often to avoid the build-up of bacteria. Retainers 4 Life enables patients to order new retainers directly to your home; it is quick, simple and affordable.
No, you do not require a referral from your dentist to have orthodontic treatment with us. Simply complete the contact form on the website to enquire today.
Yes, you can pay in instalments by debit card.
Dental Monitoring is a cutting-edge app that allows us to remotely track your orthodontic treatment progress. So, instead of coming into the practice for regular adjustment appointments, you can send us a picture of your smile through the App, wherever you are.
Aligner treatment uses a series of clear plastic trays called aligners – these aligners are virtually invisible and work to gently move your teeth over time to create a beautiful and straight smile.
As every patient’s course of treatment is different, our specialist orthodontists will advise you on how often you should change your aligners. Usually 7, 10 or 14 days.
If you have missing teeth or crowns you can still wear braces. A tooth with a crown will move in a similar manner as a normal tooth with a simple filling. Orthodontic treatment will aid the alignment of remaining teeth.
There are a few tell-tale signs that your child needs to see an orthodontist, such as:
Not all signs of orthodontic issues are obvious. Thanks to our expertise and cutting-edge technology, we can diagnose and treat problems before they become apparent.
If you are unable to attend, please contact our reception team to reschedule. We require 48 hours’ notice to cancel or re-arrange appointments. Failure to attend or failing to provide 48 hours notice when cancelling appointments will result in you being charged a fee of up to 100% depending on treatment fee or based on appointment length at £350 per hour, whichever is less.
We will always take exceptional circumstances into account if the unforeseen happens and you have reason to cancel an appointment at short notice.
