Why choose an orthodontist? Specialist care in the North East
Transforming your smile is a big decision - and you want to do it with a qualified specialist. While some dentists offer braces at their practice, only an orthodontist has the experience to create a custom treatment programme that will be the most efficient and accurate for your smile across Northumberland.

The specialist difference
Benefits of choosing a specialist in Northumberland and Newcastle
What is the difference between a dentist and an orthodontist?
All orthodontists once started out as dentists. A dentist's job is to look after the health of your teeth, and provide restorative and cosmetics procedures like fillings and crowns.
A Specialist Orthodontist has undergone an additional 3 years of training to get their Masters in Orthodontics. This gives them unique knowledge of the development and management of tooth, jaw and facial irregularities.
Specialist Orthodontists can help you achieve a healthy, functional and symmetrical smile through custom orthodontic appliances like Clear braces, Iconix braces, Invisalign, and Angel aligners.
The specialist difference in Newcastle and Northumberland
Choosing a specialist orthodontist rather than a general dentist for your orthodontic treatment can make a significant difference in your results:
Orthodontics
- Solves the problem
- Permanent solution (though you may need to wear a retainer at times)
- Completely natural – all of your natural tooth is conserved
Cosmetic dentistry
- Disguises the problem, rather than solving it
- Temporary solution – treatments generally last for 7 to 15 years
- You may need to remove some of your natural tooth material to prepare for treatment

What are the benefits of orthodontic treatment?
Orthodontic treatment is an investment in your health. Straight teeth are easier to keep clean, so there will be less risk of decay or gum disease. It also protects you from uneven wear and tear, tooth injury, and jaw joint issues like TMJ.
In addition to improving the overall look and symmetry of your smile, orthodontic treatment can improve the function of your teeth. This helps to fix issues with speech, breathing, chewing, and digesting.
As you can see, orthodontics is about a lot more than a pretty smile - but we're sure you'll enjoy that too!

Absolutely thrilled with my new smile following my orthodontic treatment with Neo. Dr Parvez was super skilled and professional, a great communicator, friendly, and always gentle during interventions. The whole team were superb, reassuring, and responsive at all times, especially very early on when I had a couple of issues with new braces. I can’t fault any of the treatment, and my expectations have been exceeded by the results. Highly recommended.

Awesome work from Shannon and Moreya and I would highly recommend this place. They were very helpful, and quick and did a great job. They were very informative and clear and explained everything well. My son can't wait for the results and is very happy with the current improvements. Thank you.
