The safety of our staff and patients remains paramount and we will continue with the strict and robust protocols already in place. It is important that anyone visiting the practice adheres to the current COVID-19 safety advice as provided by the Government.

From July the 19th it is not mandatory to wear masks however it is recommended by the British Medical Association that people continue to do so in healthcare settings. With this in mind we are requesting that all patients continue to wear a mask whilst visiting the practice (unless exempt). Let’s keep everyone safe.

Please also familiarise yourself with the flowchart below before visiting so you know what to expect.

If you have any concerns please do not hesitate to contact us by telephone or email at care@orthokind.com.

Virtual consultations

We are now able to start new treatments - so if you have been concerned about your smile - especially during all of  those Zoom meetings during lockdown don’t worry we can help you.

In order to start treatment, you need to have an initial  consultation to ensure we have thoroughly assessed your dental condition and can give you the best advice for the best type of treatment for you.

However, we also understand that people are concerned about visiting places  so we can also offer Virtual Consultations with one of our Specialist Orthodontists. Here we can ‘meet’, discuss your concerns and outline the options available to you –including new initiatives such as Dental Monitoring all without visiting the practice.

Please email us at care@orthokind.com (title your message – New Patient Video Consultation) or call us on 01904 633061 so we can discuss how best to get your treatment  started.

All orthodontists are dentists, but only 5% of dentists are orthodontists.

Both dentists and specialist orthodontists can provide orthodontic treatment, but a general dentist usually has less formal training and may not be as experienced as our dedicated Specialists.

You can be rest assured that our Specialist Orthodontists are highly qualified and their levels of expertise will ensure that you will get the best end result - that perfect smile.

We have provided high quality NHS orthodontics care to children over the last 23 years. We are committed to the continuation of this service so that the children in our community have the opportunity to benefit from lovely straight teeth and a beautiful smile.

All of our patients receive the same high quality treatment and end result however they are funded. See if you or your family could qualify for NHS treatment.

The British Orthodontic Society (BOS) and Oral Health Foundation recently launched a new website warning the public of the dangers of undertaking “direct to consumer” teeth straightening – also known as “DIY braces"

The British Orthodontic Societies official advice is that 'if you are considering having orthodontic treatment, it’s absolutely vital to see a suitably trained professional. They will have the knowledge, expertise and experience to make sure you’re guided through this complicated medical process in a safe, appropriate and effective way.'
