Real results from our patients

Every smile is different. Here are just a few of the transformations our specialist team has created.



Our mission is to provide exceptional orthodontic care plans for all ages

Orthodontics for kids

Even though most people think teens are when to consider having braces, there are good reasons your child should get an orthodontic evaluation much sooner. we recommend all children should have an orthodontic evaluation by age 7.

Orthodontics for teens

Crooked teeth can have profound effects on a teenager’s self-esteem and social skills. This can be the best opportunity to undertake orthodontic treatment to shape the appearance and function of their smile and support the future of their overall health.

Orthodontics for adults

The number of adults choosing teeth straightening has risen exponentially in the past two decades thanks to a wave of new treatments that offer discreet alternatives to traditional fixed braces. We have years of experience providing excellent dental care to our adult patients.

Frequently asked questions

Are you a specialist orthodontist or a general dentist?
We are a specialist orthodontic practice. All of our orthodontists are on the GDC Specialist Register, which means orthodontics is all we do - it is not a side service offered alongside general dentistry. This matters because it means every patient is treated by someone with postgraduate specialist training specifically in orthodontics.
For 10 to 17 year olds, the first step is a free screening with one of our orthodontic therapists. It is a no-obligation appointment where we take a 3D scan, photographs and an x-ray, which our specialist orthodontist reviews before advising on next steps. Adults start with a full consultation with our orthodontist (£150), which includes a detailed assessment, your options and a treatment plan - all in one 90-minute appointment.
Yes - we treat patients of all ages. We recommend children have an orthodontic assessment by age 7, even if treatment isn’t needed straight away. For teens and adults, we offer a full range of options from fixed braces to completely invisible aligners.
Treatment prices start from £3,450 for shorter aligner courses, with full Invisalign treatment from £4,950 and fixed braces from £4,950. We offer 0% interest-free finance with deposits from £500, so you can spread the cost into manageable monthly payments. You can also save 5% by paying in full. See our full fee guide for all prices.
We are the only Diamond Apex Invisalign provider in Reading and are in the top 1% of providers across Europe. Invisalign cases at Park Lane are planned and overseen by Dr Ben Buffham, a specialist orthodontist with extensive experience in clear aligner treatment.
We are based at 65 Park Lane, Tilehurst, Reading, RG31 5DP. We have on-site parking and our practice is on a main bus route. All treatment rooms are on the ground floor with a ramped entrance, making us fully accessible.
Yes. Once your braces or aligners are removed, we monitor your results for a full year. If you have any issues with your bonded or removable retainer during that time, we will correct them at no extra charge.
