Orthodontics, the branch of dentistry concerned with the growth of the teeth, jaws and face, is in high demand. Nearly one million people in the UK started having orthodontics last year and more adults than ever before are wanting treatment. Why? Orthodontic treatment is about making the best of your teeth; it's about improving the harmony of your mouth and jaws. Once you can bite together correctly, you can eat more comfortably and care for your teeth and gums more easily. And your smile will benefit immensely!
The ideal of the orthodontic treatment given within the Yorkshire team is by local care from dedicated senior members of the hospital Orthodontic Consultants who all follow a prescribed clinical care pathway which is based on the best practice for the care of our patients requiring orthodontic treatment.
