Fixed braces and Tooth Whitening

I first heard about Queensway Orthodontics through a referral from my dentist. After that, I began noticing posters around Newcastle, which piqued my interest even more.

As a teenager, I dealt with overcrowding which led to tooth extractions and a top set retainer, but I was always pleased with my smile. Recently, however, due to poor health, I developed a habit of pushing my teeth with my tongue without realising it. My dentist pointed out that my front teeth were moving, and upon checking recent photos, I noticed the change too. I found myself covering my mouth when talking and not smiling in photos. The situation worsened with online meetings post-Covid, where all I could focus on was my teeth.

I wasn’t sure what to expect from the treatment; I just wanted to feel comfortable with my smile again and stop my top teeth from moving forward. During the consultation, it was decided I needed braces on both my top and bottom teeth. I hadn’t realised how my bottom teeth had overlapped, so I was excited to see the transformation.

Getting fixed braces at 50 made me nervous, especially about how they would feel and how I’d manage to eat. Initially uncomfortable, I soon adapted and even enjoyed picking colours to match my mood or events—like red for Christmas! Surprisingly, people barely noticed my braces after the initial encounter. Regular appointments made the treatment time fly by. The day my braces were removed was incredible, and the whitening treatment afterward was the icing on the cake. The results exceeded my expectations.

The treatment has been life-changing. My smile and confidence have dramatically improved, and I often receive compliments asking if my teeth are real. I’m proud to say they are! In photos, I’m back to smiling and laughing, with my teeth as the focal point. I’ve also broken the habit of pushing my teeth with my tongue; I’d never want to risk altering my new smile.

Initially concerned about the cost, the consultation at Queensway Orthodontics revealed the significant impact my teeth had on my daily life. What I appreciated most was the lack of a hard sell. The options were clearly presented, allowing me to make an informed decision at my own pace. Throughout the treatment, the team made me feel safe and cared for, sharing in my excitement for the end result. Their friendliness, helpfulness, and thorough explanations made the entire process enjoyable. I give them a 10 out of 10!

I’ve already recommended Queensway Orthodontics to many people. For those insecure about their teeth and considering treatment, I assure them they won’t find better care anywhere else. The results speak for themselves. Thank you, Queensway Orthodontics!
