Teen Braces Specialist in London
We offer tailored braces solutions to align teeth, boost confidence, and ensure lifelong oral health.
Guiding Your Teen to a Confident Smile
Does your teenager shy away from smiling in photos?
Do they complain about discomfort when eating or notice their teeth aren’t lining up properly?
Imagine your teenager hiding their smile in school photos or during social events. Crooked teeth or bite issues can significantly impact a teen’s self-esteem and oral health.
At Northfield Dental Clinic, we understand how much a smile can affect a young person’s self-confidence — especially during those all-important teenage years. As a leading teen braces specialist in London, we offer expert orthodontic treatment that not only straightens teeth but builds confidence for life.
Why Consider Braces Treatment in the Teenage Years?
The teenage years are the best time for orthodontic treatment. Why? Because the jaw and facial bones are still developing, making it easier and quicker to move teeth into their ideal positions. Braces in the teen years can:
Improve appearance and boost confidence
Correct crowding, gaps, and bite issues
Make cleaning easier, reducing risk of decay and gum problems
Support speech, chewing, and jaw alignment
Prevent future dental complications that may be harder or more expensive to fix as an adult
Orthodontic treatment is about more than just looks — it’s an investment in your teen’s health and happiness.

Teen Orthodontic Options at Northfield Dental Clinic
Every teen is different, which is why we offer a range of braces to suit their needs, lifestyle, and level of confidence.
Invisalign® Teen – The Discreet, Flexible Way to Straighten Teeth
Invisalign® Teen is a game-changer for young people who want a straighter smile without the hassle or look of traditional metal braces. Made from clear, medical-grade plastic, these custom-moulded aligners are nearly invisible and designed to blend seamlessly into a teenager’s everyday life.
Teens can remove their aligners for eating, brushing, playing instruments, or sports — meaning no food restrictions and no awkward moments during lunch or PE. They’re easy to clean, comfortable to wear, and have no wires or brackets to irritate the mouth.
Key Benefits of Invisalign Teen:
Virtually Invisible – Most people won’t even notice they’re wearing them
Removable – For meals, special occasions, sports, and hygiene
Comfortable Fit – Smooth edges with no metal to rub or poke
Fewer Appointments – Less time away from school or hobbies
Blue Wear Indicators – Helps teens (and parents!) keep track of wear time
Custom-Made for Teens – Designed to adapt to growing mouths and new teeth
It’s the perfect solution for image-conscious teens who want straight teeth but without the look and feel of fixed braces. Invisalign® Teen offers freedom, confidence, and excellent results — all with minimal disruption to daily life.
Spark Aligners for Teens – Next-Gen Clear Aligner Treatment
Looking for a clear aligner that’s discreet, comfortable, and designed with teens in mind? Spark Aligners are the latest innovation in orthodontics — offering a virtually invisible, stain-resistant alternative to braces with exceptional comfort and control.
Made with advanced TruGEN™ material, Spark Aligners are clearer, smoother, and more effective at moving teeth than many other aligner brands. They fit snugly, are easy to remove for meals or brushing, and won’t interfere with school life, sports, or social events.
Why Teens (and Parents) Love Spark Aligners:
Crystal-clear design – Practically invisible in photos or face-to-face
Removable – Easy to clean, eat, and live life without compromise
More comfortable – Smooth edges reduce rubbing and irritation
Stain-resistant – Stay clearer for longer, even with everyday wear
Proven results – Designed to treat a wide range of orthodontic issues
Whether your teen is dealing with crowding, spacing, or bite problems, Spark Aligners offer a confident, comfortable, and modern way to straighten their smile — backed by specialist orthodontic care here at Northfield Dental Clinic.
Metal Braces – Reliable, Effective, and Customisable
Metal braces remain one of the most effective treatments for correcting complex orthodontic issues such as crowding, bite problems, and jaw misalignment. Today’s designs are smaller, smoother, and far more comfortable than older versions.
They use high-grade brackets and wires to gently move teeth into place — and for teens who like a personal touch, coloured bands can be added for a fun and unique look.
Benefits:
Excellent for complex cases
Always working (no need to remove or remember to wear)
Customisable with colourful bands
Cost-effective and proven results
Want Something More Discreet?
We also offer Damon Clear Braces, a nearly invisible option that uses a self-ligating system for quicker, more comfortable tooth movement. They’re fixed like metal braces but made with clear materials for a subtle, low-profile look.
Whether it’s classic metal or the discreet Damon system, both options deliver powerful results with expert care at Northfield Dental Clinic.
What to Expect: Care That’s Personal and Ongoing
From the first consultation to the final retainer, your teen’s journey will be guided by experienced orthodontists who take time to explain every step. We don’t do one-size-fits-all treatment. Every plan is fully tailored, and we involve both teens and parents throughout the process.
0% Interest Dental Finance Payment Option
We believe that financial concerns should never stand in the way of excellent dental health. That’s why Northfield Dental Clinic offers 0% interest free finance options to help manage the cost of your treatment more comfortably. Whether you need a routine procedure or a more complex treatment, our finance plans are designed to make it easier for you to receive immediate care without financial strain. Spread the cost of your treatment over manageable monthly payments and take advantage of our flexible, straightforward financing options. Speak to our team today to find out more and apply.
