What are fixed braces?

Fixed braces are the traditional way to straighten teeth. Metal brackets are fixed to the front of your teeth for the duration of treatment and have a wire connecting them which creates the pressure to gradually straighten teeth.

Patients from Gillingham, Rainham, Chatham, Strood, Rochester and throughout Medway still choose to use fixed braces rather than other modern braces, because they remain the most precise way to straighten teeth. They are also the best option for patients who have a severe orthodontic need.

How do fixed braces work at Smileology?

Fixed Braces Maidstone

Impressions

Once you’ve had your first free consultation, we will take dental moulds of your teeth. These are used to create your bespoke fixed braces.

Fixed Braces Maidstone

Placement

When ready, you’ll be invited to come back to the dental surgery in Rochester to have the metal brackets applied to your teeth. This process does not hurt at all.

Fixed Braces Maidstone

Adjustment

Sometimes, your orthodontist may attach small elastic bands to certain parts of your fixed braces to create extra pressure. This does not hurt and is nothing to worry about.

Once your braces are fixed to your teeth, it may seem strange at first – you may notice pressure, or your teeth may feel sore, and you may lisp initially. This is all perfectly normal whilst your mouth adjusts to wearing braces and will disappear in a few days.

Fixed Braces Maidstone

Monitoring

We will call you back to the dental practice in Rochester for regular appointments to check that your teeth straightening is on course and to gently tighten your braces to maintain the pressure.

FAQs

How long do fixed braces take to straighten teeth?

This really does depend upon the severity of your case. Your dentist can give you a more precise answer when you have your first consultation. Most patients find that their teeth are straightened between 6 and 18 months.

How often will I need to see my orthodontist?

Your orthodontist will let you know how often they want to see you. Usually this will occur every 4 to 10 weeks.

How long does it take to fit the fixed braces?

This will depend upon how many teeth are being treated, but generally, fitting a fixed brace will take between 30 and 60 minutes.

Maureen Yapp
I had a fantastic experience at Smileology Specialist Dental & Endo-Implant Centre, Sevenoaks in Riverhead. The clinic is incredibly clean, and the reception team is warm and welcoming. I am absolutely delighted with the work done by Dr Silva and the team—they are highly skilled, worked efficiently to a brilliant timeline, and the final result looks incredibly beautiful and natural. They explained everything clearly and made me feel completely at ease. I highly recommend them!

Outstanding emergency and now ongoing treatment for one of my students! We absolutely could not ask for better service, and Dr Chaudhary is probably the best in the business for paediatric dental care. Thank you a million times.

Emma Shackleton
After avoiding going to the dentist for many years Smileology Sevenoaks have eased my anxiety and put me at ease. Dentist Luisa and Hygienist Katherine have been so wonderfully kind and caring in delivering the best care for my teeth. 100% recommend this dentist surgery.
Chris Hart
Very friendly staff!
Dan Foley
Always an excellent service, friendly and professional.
Gail Walker
I had become very disheartened with another dental practice I'd been a patient with, so I decided to try another practice. I was given an appointment initially for an assessment with Luisa. I couldn't have been made to feel more welcome as soon as I walked into the practice. Alice the practice manager was so friendly & professional. Luisa & her assistant Holly made me feel very comfortable & explained what was actually going on with my teeth & suggested the treatment I needed going forward. The practice was spotlessly clean & a pleasant atmosphere with a bit of music in the background to calm any anxious patient! Even after my first visit I felt this was the practice for me!
Stuart Allen
Charming, funny, kind and professional.
Very happy with my cleaned teeth.
Sandra Robertson
A great, friendly and professional service. Time is taken to explain the check ups and any suggested treatment. I feel more assured and confident that my teeth are well looked after.
Chris Wulleart
Amazing dentist! Luisa and her team couldn't be more helpful and reassuring!
Highly recommended!
Chris Northover
I had two implants here and I found the whole process went smoothly. I believe that the service I received was effective efficient and extremely professional.
Mexican Dave
I can highly recommend Luisa and her fantastic staff. From start to finish, I felt very comfortable with the whole process/procedure this morning (17/07/2025). Thank you again for arranging an appointment so quickly and re-cementing my crown.
Simon
Great team and a really good dental clinic. You’re made to feel welcome as soon as you go in and the team take time to explain the treatment.

Jerry Pass
Highly recommended. Excellent and careful attention to dealing with difficult teeth ! Thank you.
Stephen Sowten
Great friendly team who made me feel extremely comfortable taking time to talk me through the whole process before commencing and extremely happy with the final product...

Vicki Jeffreys
Always greeted by lovely reception staff (Alice) and co.

I would recommend Smileology, my dental work has been excellent.
Jane Morris
I highly recommend this dental practice. I have needed a lot of treatment in the last few years (root canal, implants) and I am a very nervous & technically challenging patient! All of the staff, from technical through to reception, are kind, knowledgeable and reassuring. I feel confident I am getting the best possible treatment.
Mihai Pruna
Thank you so much, you are amazing, you care so much about your patients
James Easterbrook
Have been coming here for hygienist and regular dental check ups for a while. Always efficient and friendly. Not the cheapest but ultimately good value.
Michelle Hughes
I can highly recommend this dental practice! My 11 year old daughter has just had some complex work done on her tooth which she was extremely anxious about. Dr Shah and his dental nurses were so good at reassuring her and they did an amazing job. I always find the team there very friendly and approachable!
Katrina Oliver
