Both were so joyful in the workZo, UK, 09 01 24

Would totally recommend Smile kind to everyone. Refreshing way this practice operates. Instantly calmed with music and a cheerful environment. My surgeon, Bilal, phenomenal, he explained everything in terms I can understand before and during the surgery as it was about to happen. The nurse, Kate, delightful and helpful. Talked me through my x-ray weeks earlier, and booked the extraction for a date and time that best suited me and it was great to see a familiar face for the she too. Both were so joyful in the work.

They made me feel welcome and at ease from the moment I walked inJane, UK, 22 12 21

Lovely clinic with friendly, approachable staff. They made me feel welcome and at ease from the moment I walked in. I had my first consultation with the dentist, Zak. He was warm and knowledgeable about dental implants. Although I've neglected my teeth and know I have a road ahead of me, I know I'm in the right place. Thank you all very much.

Orthodontic Retainers - Vivera from £452
The world's best orthodontic retainer.It's supremely comfortable, discreet and come in sixes. This means you always have spares, and a good 9 years of wear. 
Braces  
Smile Stories can straighten teeth using either fixed braces or a modern aligner.It's your choice.
Ceramic Braces  
Not all train-track braces are made equally. Ugly Betty's are a thing of the past. Think tooth coloured and discreet.
