Straighten your smile with fixed braces
Achieve a beautifully aligned smile with traditional metal braces, discreet ceramic braces, or stylish champagne braces. Expert orthodontic treatment from our specialist team in West London.




IS this treatment right for you?
Straightening your teeth is a personal decision — and we understand you want to feel fully supported throughout the process. At Siha Dental, your treatment is led by our Specialist Orthodontist, Dr. Abeera, whose expertise focuses specifically on creating healthier, beautifully aligned smiles. Whether you're dealing with mild misalignment or more complex bite issues, she designs treatment plans that are precise, personal and tailored to your needs.
You may be suitable candidate for braces if you:
- Have crooked, gapped, crowded or overlapping teeth
- Want to correct bite problems e.g., overbite or underbite
- Prefer a fixed solution without daily removal
Fixed braces use brackets bonded to each tooth, connected by wires and elastics, to apply gentle, consistent pressure that gradually guides your teeth into their ideal position. They've been the trusted solution for over 200 years — and they work, even for the most complex cases.

Why choose Fixed braces?

What does this mean for you?
How your braces treatment works

Fixed braces have three main components working to straighten your teeth:
- Brackets are small squares bonded to the front of each tooth using dental adhesive.
- Archwires are metal wires threaded through the brackets that apply controlled pressure to move your teeth.
- Elastics are tiny rubber bands that hold the wire in place and can be customised in different colours for personalisation.
Together, these elements apply gentle, consistent force to gradually shift your teeth into their correct positions. As your teeth move, your orthodontist adjusts the tension at regular intervals to continue the progression toward your ideal smile.
Here is exactly what to expect in your journey

Living with braces

Daily Care
Looking after your braces doesn't have to be complicated. Brush thoroughly twice daily with a soft-bristled toothbrush, taking extra care around brackets and wires. Floss daily using orthodontic floss or threaders, and rinse with mouthwash to keep everything fresh. Most importantly, don't miss your adjustment appointments as they're what keeps your treatment on track.

Fixed braces frequently asked questions
Many patients find that braces can take some getting used to, and there can be considerable pressure on your teeth and jaw, particularly in the hours following an adjustment. Over-the-counter pain relief can help, however, any discomfort should subside within a few days.
It’s not unusual for people to fail to wear their retainers after orthodontic treatment. However, this doesn’t mean that you’ll need to have braces again. Our orthodontic team will be able to tell you which treatment will be most effective to correct your smile again.
Although braces are very durable, damage and breakages can occur if you don’t follow the instructions and advice given to you by our orthodontic team, particularly in relation to what you shouldn’t eat. While repairs can be carried out, these may incur a charge.
Braces can feel very unusual at first, and many patients find that their speech changes while they get used to them.
The cost of braces can vary depending on your individual treatment. Your orthodontist will be able to provide an estimate at the time of your free consultation. To help spread the cost of your treatment, we also offer financing options. Visit our fees and payment plans page for more information.
Functionally, they are identical—both are made from stainless steel and work in the same way to straighten teeth. The key difference is the champagne-coloured coating, which offers a more stylish and refined look.
