THE NHS ASSESSMENT

During your initial appointment you can discuss any initial concerns with one of our Specialist Orthodontists whilst we assess your bite and alignment to determine your IOTN Score. This is straightforward and involves nothing more than taking a few measurements. We may also take clinical photographs and x-rays.

Once we’ve determined your treatment needs and you’ve understood the commitment to treatment, you’ll be offered an appointment for records (photos, scan, Xrays) and then appointment for consent where we will discuss all of your treatment options. A legal guardian must be present in this appointment to obtain consent for those under 18 years of age.

At the end of your assessment visit you’ll proceed, starting in one of the following groups:
