Here at Evolve Dentistry we have a specialist orthodontist, Lisa Hichens, who has undertaken specialist training and has gained years of experience in treating our orthodontic patients. Carol Somerville Roberts, our clinical director, is also experienced in braces. We are often asked “ How quickly will my teeth move?”
People are often surprised to hear that adult teeth move as quickly as children’s teeth, and that there is no upper age limit on orthodontic treatment. In fact, a lot of our patients are adults who have children of their own.
There are a huge range of braces available, each with different benefits. At Evolve, we can help you choose the most appropriate option for you, depending on how much you want your teeth to move, how quickly, your budget and also your teeth. We have a Treatment Co-ordinator, Julie, who meets with all new patients to discuss all of the options to ensure that they have all the information they need to help them decide on the best possible option for them.
With some of our options, results can start to be seen within as little as 4 weeks. If you don’t need to have any teeth removed or large gaps closed, treatment can be finished in as little as 10-12 weeks. However, average treatment time is 9-12 months, metal braces can achieve results quicker than ceramic braces. It’s always worth remembering, if teeth can straighten quickly, they can also move back quickly, so retainers are an absolute necessity after all orthodontic treatment.
If your teeth ache whilst you are wearing your brace, it means that they are moving, so see it as a good sign. If you do need to take a painkiller, paracetamol is a better to take than ibuprofen, as ibuprofen can affect speed of the movement of teeth.

✨ “I’m looking forward to the
path ahead of me with a perfect smile.” ✨
When Matt was just 9 years old, an accident in the
playground affected his smile and confidence for years
to come.
After deciding it was time to make a change, Matt
spent time researching practices online, looking for a
team he could trust. After reading about our awards
and patient care, he chose Evolve Dentistry to help him
achieve the smile he’d always wanted.
Using Invisalign and composite bonding, we were able
to transform Matt’s smile and give him results he’s
incredibly happy with.
Hearing how much confidence a new smile can bring is
one of the most rewarding parts of what we do, and
we’re delighted that Matt trusted us with his journey.
Watch his story and hear about his experience at
Evolve Dentistry. 🦷😁
