For everything from mild crowding to complex bite correction, fixed braces do the heavy lifting. In Corsegight, the choice of brace type is wider than ever — the right one depends on your case, not just your preference. They work continuously and need no compliance beyond routine cleaning, which makes them dependable for complex movements. Treatment length varies with the case, but 12–24 months is the usual range.
NHS vs Private Braces in Corsegight
Eligible under-18s in Corsegight can receive NHS braces free of charge if their IOTN grade meets the threshold; adults rarely qualify unless there is a severe functional need. Adults aged 26 and over who qualify pay 80% of the NHS fee, capped at £384 for a course of treatment. Waiting times for NHS orthodontic treatment in Aberdeenshire differ considerably between practices and can change over time.
Going private removes the waiting list and widens the choice of brace type. Expect roughly £1,500–£3,500 for metal in Corsegight, more for ceramic and lingual — always confirm retainers are included in the quote.
