Invisalign - Dental Clinic in London


I've been wanting to do something to my buck teeth for ages-

Back in primary school, I did wear a retainer. I remember that I kept on misreplacing it & looking for it- there was even one occasion where a friend helped me to find it in the school's rubbish bin. (not class bin, school bin, so imagine the size of the bin for a school of 12,000 pupils! no joke) Eventually the retainer broke in half - but the orthodontist (probably didn't want to make another retainer for me) told me that my teeth were fine, so that was the end of my treatment.

Then I came to England- because all the orthodontic treatments were free for people under the age of 16, so I went to see an orthodontist again... But the orthodontist said that I had a lovely smile so unless I really want to wear braces, there is not much need to get my teeth done! I guess I was flattered by the comment (even though it's from a very old man!) so decided not to go ahead with it. I guess that's one of my biggest regrets in life!

So I've lived with my teeth and my 'lovely' smile for 28 years now... so why change? Well I guess I am just vain! :) Plus I've been looking at so many dental websites and before & after cases... which make me want to do something to myself too! In addition, there are a few clinics that are doing free consultations and the invisalign treatment for apparently only £1,500! (don't know whether they're any catches!?!) I called up today but was told there was no available slot in August but they're thinking of extending the deal into September... So the lady is going to give me a call on Monday to see whether they can book me in for the special deal! :D Fingers CROSSED.

Can't go wrong with one of the biggest clinics in the UK, plus it's on Harley Street right? K bear was saying that I might look worse after the treatment... LOL

  1. Hi,
    Have you managed to get treated yet? Just wondered as I am considering treatment at the Q Clinic as their prices are so much lower than any of our local dentists. Is this a reliable company? I was a bit concerned at having to pay £1,000 up front and giving a credit card over the phone to guarantee the first appointment.
