Services
Early Treatment
Early orthodontic intervention for children up to 10 years old addresses dental alignment and jaw development. This stage focuses on creating space for emerging teeth and correcting bite issues to prevent future complications. Our approach ensures comfort and builds confidence through a child-friendly environment.
Invisalign
Invisalign offers a discreet, removable alternative to traditional braces using custom-made aligners. This treatment gradually shifts teeth into optimal alignment without metal brackets, ideal for teens and adults seeking aesthetic solutions. Regular check-ups ensure progress meets individualised treatment goals.
Functional Appliances
Functional appliances correct jaw discrepancies in growing patients, improving bite alignment and facial symmetry. These devices guide jaw growth to create a balanced foundation for permanent teeth. Early use can reduce the need for more complex treatments later in life.
Ceramic Braces
Ceramic braces provide a less visible option for teeth straightening, with tooth-coloured brackets that blend with natural enamel. They combine the effectiveness of metal braces with aesthetic appeal, suitable for patients prioritising discretion during treatment.
Virtual Smile Assessment
Our Virtual Smile Assessment allows initial evaluations via emailed photos, reducing travel and wait times. Patients receive preliminary feedback on treatment needs, with follow-up appointments structured to optimise efficiency and minimise disruption to school or work.

My daughter has just completed her treatment with Hanks Orthodontics. We are more than happy. It is a big investment and we wanted to be happy with the treatment and the environment. Dr Hanks and his team put us at ease and made the whole process smooth and successful. We had had 2 consultations prior to seeing Hanks and the costs were reasonable and certainly the highest. Regardless of cost, it is about the treatment journey and the result and these 2 factors made achieving a beautiful smile straight forward. Thanks to everyone at Hanks Orthodontics. The staff were great (Teash was fabulous as

We have had 3 of our children have treatment with Hanks Orthodontics. They found the whole experience great. The building is so open and full of light. The staff were relaxing and reassuring. Dr Hanks was not rushed and spent as much time as each child needed. The results were excellent. Thoroughly happy
