"My son was fitted with a brace by Vicky and just had it removed last week. From start to finish Vicky and her team have been amazing, so kind, patient and professional, fully explaining all aspects of the treatment. We never felt rushed, all our questions were answered and his teeth now look fantastic. I would definitely recommend Wearside Orthodontic Centre and would not hesitate to use their services again if the need arose. Thanks Vicky and your team!"

"I've had braces on for the last two and a half years. It has been a bit of a marathon but from the start I was aware of the plan and convinced it was well thought out. Simon Lovell has been excellent throughout and I can't recommend him enough. He is very patient and took the time to explain everything and answer every one of my million questions. Appointments were always on time and all other staff were always friendly and helpful. Once my treatment was complete Debs the Hygienist made sure my teeth were lovely and clean, advised me well on ensuring I kept my teeth clean and healthy, and she did the Zoom whitening which really finished off my smile. She is wonderful and I'll now always go back to her to keep my teeth tip top. Overall a superb experience, highly recommend."
