Teeth straightening

Serving patients throughout Lewes, Ringmer and Brighton

Never before have there been so many ways to have your teeth straightened.

Teeth straightening is a dental speciality known as Orthodontics. Using fixed braces or removable aligners, teeth are slowly and precisely moved to achieve a beautifully aligned smile.

Dentists and Orthodontists have been straightening teeth for decades, but a lot has changed in that time. Traditional fixed braces will always be a fantastic way to straighten teeth, but advances in technology have now introduced a range of discreet alternatives. From clear removable aligners, clear fixed braces to invisible wires hidden behind the teeth, these aesthetic options have seen a huge rise in the number of adults seeking straighter teeth.

Orthodontic treatment is most often used to improve the appearance and alignment of crooked, protruding or crowded teeth, and to correct problems with the bite of the teeth. Whether you have mild crowding or a complex bite problem, our teeth straightening dentist [dentist full name and link to profile], can help you to achieve your perfect smile.

At St Anne's Dental Practice in Lewes we offer the following teeth straightening options:

  • Fixed braces
  • Invisalign
  • Clear aligners

Treatment times vary depending on your individual alignment needs. For simple cases this could be just a few months, but for more complex movements, it usually takes between 12 months and two years to achieve your beautiful new smile. Adam or Susan will give you an idea of how long your teeth straightening treatment may take during your initial consultation.

Benefits of dental braces or clear aligners from St Anne's Dental Practice in Lewes

  • Dramatically improve the appearance of your smile and potentially provide a life-changing confidence boost.
  • Improve the way your teeth function and bite together – they can even help some speech problems.
  • Straighter teeth provide food and plaque with fewer places to hide, making it easier for you to keep your smile clean and healthy.
  • If you follow aftercare advice and wear your retainers, your results can last a lifetime.

Am I suitable for teeth straightening?

Your teeth and gums need to be healthy before you can start treatment. If you have any implants, crowns, bridges, or veneers you can still wear braces, we can usually work around them.

Very prompt courteous and friendly

2nd May 2026

I was 5 minutes late for my appointment with Anna the hygienist, due to road works, but she saw me straight away and explained the airflow treatment, which I went for. She was gentle, but thorough, and I was very pleased with the result. I then saw Adam, who was very thorough as usual. All together a far better experience than with the previous hygienist (who has now left the practice).

Jane the receptionist provided fantastic services by fitting me in on a cancelled appointment as there was no available appointments at the time of my enquire. This has happened a number of time and they have always managed to get me a last minute appointment. Fantastic service from both Adam and Anna every time I see them.

I have been coming to the St Annes Practice since the 1970's and have seen over the years many changes, all I can say for the better as more and more up to date equipment and dedicated and experienced staff have come along the way. I now feel that you have got it just right as there are staff to cover all needs. The reception teem are just lovely and make all the difference if you happen to be a bit nervous about the treatment you are about to receive. I have just introduced a new client my dear friend who is in her early nineties and she was very, very impressed. Thank you all for your good work.

Susan is a really good dentist. She explains clearly what is planned, focuses on preventative care and has a very reassuring manner

10th April 2026

Fitted me in as it was urgent, yet despite that I got the usual relaxed, competent care from Adam and his assistant.

9th April 2026

The whole team at St Annes is fantastic, start to finish. I had a root canal and crown which required significant tooth reconstruction. Nicolette’s magic saved my tooth, and with Mia’s perfect crown I now have my smile and bite back! Thank you very much to everyone involved.

1st April 2026
