At Hartog Dental, we know how important our orthodontic care is to you and your family which is why our two orthodontists are trained to consultant specialist level.
Braces (orthodontic treatment) straighten or move teeth to improve the appearance and function of teeth. Braces can be removable, so you can take them out and clean them, or fixed to your teeth.
Braces can be made of metal, plastic or ceramic. Invisible braces are made of a clear plastic, we use the Invisalign clear brace system.
Orthodontic treatment (braces) to straighten your teeth, improve your smile and your dental health may be considered at any age – more than half of our patients are adults.
We consider Orthodontics to be both a science and an art that involves not only the alignment of crooked or spaced teeth but also improving your bite and dental health.
Dr Ross McDowell is a widely respected orthodontist:
Not only does he have the very highest accreditations possible but he was also awarded the gold medal for the highest score in the United Kingdom for his specialist orthodontist exams in 2010.
He is warm and caring, and of course extremely passionate about his orthodontic work.

Patient Mrs W
As your child grows and develops, their teeth may need orthodontic treatment for a lovely smile that builds confidence. We will help with the assessment of your child as their face and jaws grow, and dentition develops.
There is no set age for an orthodontic consultation, but usually, you will be referred at an appropriate stage by one of our dentists, or by your general dental practitioner.
You are always welcome to book an appointment to discuss your concerns.
Though often thought of as a treatment for younger patients, orthodontics can actually be considered at any stage in your life. More than half of our patients are adults, and we routinely treat older patients, including those in their 60s and 70s.
At your consultation appointment, we will demonstrate various alternatives and will help explain each system and its own strengths and weaknesses.
We will always endeavour to choose what is right for you and sometimes combine systems for the best and most efficient outcome.Your treatment will be planned in detail using digital photography, detailed moulds and specialised X-rays as well as 3D Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) scans, where appropriate.
Discover the perfect braces tailored to suit your lifestyle and enhance your treatment results.
We use modern teeth straightening solutions and appliances including Invisalign, Damon, Incognito systems, as well as traditional brace systems for all age groups.
