What are braces?

Braces are dental devices used to align teeth correctly so that patients get beautiful smiles, comfortable bites and clear speech. The dental speciality that covers braces is called orthodontics.

What types of braces are available?

Braces are structural or cosmetic. Structural braces are fitted for children while cosmetic braces are placed for adults and adolescents. Braces may be fixed or removable. Structural or traditional braces are made of stainless steel. Cosmetic braces are made of clear ceramic material or clear plastic. Some braces are self-ligating, that is, they use a slide mechanism rather than elastic bands to connect to the dental archwire. Lingual braces are metal braces placed on the inner surface of teeth. This type of brace is not visible and are preferred by patients requiring cosmetic braces.

How long do you have to wear braces for?

The length of orthodontic treatment depends on the needs and orthodontic problems of each individual patient. Treatments for adults may take a longer time. On average, patients need to wear braces for about 2 years and then they need to wear a retainer to maintain the corrected position of teeth. For some adults treatment may take about 3 years.

How are braces installed on teeth?

For fixed braces, the orthodontist dries the teeth and places glue or bonding cement on the braces. The braces are placed on teeth and a UV light is shone on them to cure the glue or cement. For removable braces, an impression of the teeth is taken and a technician makes the removable brace consisting of a plastic plate and wires. The brace is then fitted on teeth.

How do braces work on teeth?

Braces exert a steady pressure on teeth. The pressure is periodically adjusted as needed by the orthodontist. Eventually the pressure exerted by braces corrects the alignment of teeth.

Do braces hurt?

Braces are uncomfortable when first placed on teeth. Patients experience soreness and need to get used to the pressure exerted on the teeth by braces. Patients normally get used to braces within a month.

Been to Precision Dental today for the first time. All the staff I met were nice and friendly. And very professional. I was put at ease after having bad experiences with a dentist years ago. I can definitely recommend this dentist. Who are thorough and check everything to do with teeth and oral health. I wish I had visited this dentist years ago.

Very gentle and knows the fear of injectionC.MUNDAY, UK, 10 09 25

He is very thoughtful and caring, definitely recommend him. Dr. Satinder Dhami gave me my dream of full implant teeth and brought back my confidence to smile without any hesitation. And he managed to balance my uneven gum, very impressive, amazing. And he has very light hands, you can’t feel the weight of his hands when brushing your teeth. Very gentle and knows the fear of injection

From the moment I walked in, the staff was incredibly welcoming and professionalGalya, UK, 31 03 25

A Wonderful Experience at Oaks Dental Practice I had an amazing experience at Oaks Dental Practice. From the moment I walked in, the staff was incredibly welcoming and professional. The office is clean, modern, and very comfortable, which made me feel at ease right away. I went in for a routine check-up and cleaning and I was very impressed with the level of care and attention I received. The dentist Dr Ramona Seth was thorough in explaining every step of the process, which really put me at ease. They also took the time to answer all my questions, making sure I understood what was happening with my dental health. The procedure itself went smoothly, and I could tell that the dentist really cared about my comfort throughout. I left feeling refreshed and confident about my dental care. The Hygienist Faizan was very gentle and professional. I highly recommend Oaks Dental Practice to anyone looking for a professional, friendly, and caring dental team. I'll definitely be returning for future visits!

4.8 from 5 verified reviews
The Herbrandston Dental Health Practice is a technologically advanced private dental practice offering a very wide range of dental treatments. The three dentists work together as a team to ensure treatment outcomes are the very best: whether cosmetic, surgical or restorative. So we can carry out the simplest to most complex case - pain free with great compassion and understanding. We look after all our patients - whether you are confident or very anxious.  For difficult treatments or if you are very anxious we can provide intravenous sedation. We are situated in the tastefully converted buildings of the Old Coach House of what used to be the village Rectory next to Saint Mary's Church in Herbrandston. A lovely old stone built building dating back to circa 1790; the dental practice successfully manages to harmonise the old with the ultra modern, simplicity with comfort. Situated within the quaint village of Herbrandston , an easy 5-minute drive from the port town of Milford Haven , the practice enjoys the peaceful and beatific surrounds of the Pembrokeshire Coastal National Park . The air of peaceful tranquility is enhanced by the practice location: within the 4 acre pastoral (wooded and gardened) site of the Old Rectory building itself. Overall an ideal setting for a Dental Practice priding itself on its care and relaxation of its patients.

I cannot thank the clinic enough for the service I received after endless hours of rejection from other dental practices. I was enlightened to be offered an appointment to sort my painful tooth out temporarily until an NHS appointment becomes available. Very professional, reassuring and all-around great people. Thank you, thank you, thank you!! I will never forget your kindness!!

My dentist and her assistant and all staff have made me feel so welcomeCatherine, UK, 09 07 23

I joined this dentist a few months ago and I'm so glad I did. My dentist Ameena and her assistant and all staff have made me feel so welcome and Ameena has calmed my nerves amazingly. I had 3 teeth all broken with just the root left and feared there was no hope for them but Ameena has built me 3 new teeth that look amazing and unbelievably real, I was in shock, I actually cried and all at an extremely reasonable price. I honestly can't thank Amena enough and this amazing dental practice

I am a reluctant dental patient. A friend recommended Mike Powell, which gave me the confidence to attend his practice. On my visit, the stall was kindly & the dentist exceptionally thorough. He commented on all aspects of my dental story, asked me what I wanted from my treatment & carried out necessary Xrays & examinations. I tremble at the cost of my treatment but I feel l have put myself in good hands.
