Adult Braces

It’s never too late to love your smile. Whether for confidence or health, adult braces are a proven, safe, and discreet way to get the results you want—at any age.

At Geans Clinic we are fortunate to have the expertise of Dr Stacey Tsang, a consultant in orthodontics, who proves a variety of solutions to help adults achieve the straight smile they always wanted. Adult braces are orthodontic treatments designed to straighten teeth, correct bite issues, and improve overall dental health—specifically for adults. Braces aren’t just for teenagers anymore. Thanks to modern techniques and discreet options, more adults are choosing to align their teeth later in life for both cosmetic and functional reasons.

About this treatment

Adults choose to have braces at Geans Clinic to address crowded, crooked, or misaligned teeth in the most conservative way. Braces in adults can also help address bite issues (overbite, underbite, crossbite).

Geans Clinic also recommends braces to treat shifting teeth later in life (often caused by the consequences of gum disease or loss of previous dental work). In adulthood, patients may have desire for a more confident smile.

A straighter smile will also help improve oral hygiene because straight teeth are easier to clean.

The main benefits of braces for adults are, a straighter smile will enhances confidence and aesthetics, will reduce wear and tear on teeth, can improves speech, chewing, and jaw alignment, supports long-term oral health and can help prepare space for restorative work (e.g., implants, crowns or bridges).

How long will treatment take?

Typically 8-24 months, depending on case complexity. Sometimes we may need to make minor corrections, which may take less than a year. It is however crucial to be wearing retainers afterward to maintain results for life.

Do you offer any payment plans?

Due to the length of time braces take, we are able to split the cost of treatment over the length of your course of treatment at convenient 4-6 weekly payments meaning you do not have to worry about any large initial bills, and allowing you to forward plan payments without involving any third party finance companies.

How do I know if I am suitable for braces?

You are never too old to receive brace treatment. in adulthood however we need to take a few extra things into consideration; bone density is lower than in teens, so teeth may move slightly slower, some adults may need pre-treatment (e.g., periodontal therapy or restorative work), commitment to wearing aligners and retainers long-term is essential.

Patient Testimonials

We as a family have been coming to this dentist since it opened. I cannot stress how professional and caring they all are. I myself am a nervous patient and they put me at ease every single time. My son has unfortunately had to have root canal treatment not something anyone likes to endure but they were so careful, gentle and professional that my son wasn’t worried, scared or in pain (he fell asleep). I love this dentist, and recommend you to everyone. Sabrina is AMAZING, such a lovely person.

Anonymous patient

Thank you Sabrina for not hurting me and making me feel at ease! I’m scared to death of the dentist!

Both my wife and I have been in to see you for a few different treatments and on every single occasion we have left feeling happy and confident with the work you have done. My wife was extremely nervous about having any work done but after having the first consultation with you she came away and immediately felt relaxed about seeing you again to begin the treatments. After the experience we’ve had with you I no longer dread having to book in for a check up!

Will you please pass my thanks to Shrina Nathwani for her wonderful, professional care when I had a tooth extracted… I had been dreading the procedure but Shrina made me feel so relaxed and I must say I felt no discomfort. Shrina and the dental nurse who assisted her are a definite asset to your practice.

Anon 1, October 2018

I had excellent service from Shrina, not even any swelling or bleeding after the extraction last week. It’s just such a relief to have this sorted. Thank you for your prompt action.
