Services
Early Orthodontics
Early orthodontic treatment addresses developmental issues in children, such as jaw growth and tooth alignment. Ideal for ages 7-8, it prevents complex problems later. Non-invasive appliances guide proper development, ensuring better outcomes during adolescence. Suitable for cross-bites, thumb sucking, and narrow jaws. Complimentary observation available until treatment timing is optimal.
Teen Orthodontics
Specialised orthodontic solutions for teenagers address common alignment issues during critical growth periods. Treatment improves both function and aesthetics, boosting confidence during formative years. Options include discreet ceramic braces and removable aligners. Comprehensive care manages bite correction and dental development through adolescence.
Adult Orthodontics
Customised orthodontic treatment for adults corrects alignment issues at any age. Discreet options like clear aligners and ceramic braces suit professional lifestyles. Treatment improves dental health while enhancing smiles. Comprehensive assessment ensures solutions meet individual aesthetic and functional requirements.
Braces
Traditional braces provide precise tooth movement for complex alignment issues. Available in aesthetic ceramic options, they offer reliable results for all ages. Fixed appliances ensure accurate positioning while maintaining dental health. Treatment includes regular adjustments for optimal progress.
Aligners
Custom-made plastic aligners gradually straighten teeth with minimal visibility. Removable trays allow normal eating and cleaning routines. Brands like Invisalign and Spark offer discreet solutions for mild to moderate cases. Digital scanning ensures precise, comfortable fit throughout treatment.

Jenkin has a warm, calm demeanour that made us all feel very relaxed. He is clear at communicating expectations on treatment. He did an incredible job with all my daughters teeth. I highly recommend him. The staff are efficient and helpful. It was a wonderful experience.

I moved my two daughters care to Jenkin after issues with a dentist in Newport. Unbelievable difference, calm, understanding, set plan - that was adhered to and always on time, quick & efficient. You know exactly what you are in for and the results speak for themselves. I just wish we went there in the beginning.

Our daughter had blocks, braces and now on retainers. Not only has the procedure benefited aesthetically but more importantly, has corrected the over bite and eliminated implications. This is the kind of service provided by Dr Chui. He genuinely cares and values his patients and their needs. Hes also friendly and funny which helps when your teen has to attend on a regular basis.
Dr Chui and the staff are lovely and always happy people. Highly recommended!
