Types of Braces Available in Logie Pert
Metal braces are the benchmark treatment: small steel brackets, an archwire, and regular adjustments. They suit all case types and are the least expensive private option, as well as the NHS standard.
Ceramic braces swap the metal bracket for a clear or ivory ceramic one, cutting visibility sharply while keeping the same mechanics. Popular with adults and older teens who want discretion without going lingual.
Lingual braces are bonded to the tongue-facing surface of the teeth, so they are invisible from the front. They are the most discreet fixed option, cost the most, and need a short speech-adaptation period.
Self-ligating braces use a clip mechanism rather than elastic bands to hold the wire. They are often suggested for crowded cases where reduced friction helps early tooth movement, and are offered by several Logie Pert orthodontists.
Picking the Right Orthodontist in Logie Pert
The practices worth shortlisting in Logie Pert explain your options rather than pushing one, quote transparently, and make clear who will treat you and what happens if the case runs over.
Specialist orthodontists hold the MOrth qualification — three years of postgraduate training beyond dental school — and are worth it for complex cases; a trained general dentist can be a good fit for straightforward crowding.

If your orthodontist identifies a skeletal jaw problem requiring surgical correction, they will refer you to an oral and maxillofacial surgery team.
