Orthodontics is a specialist branch of dentistry which involves alignment or straightening of teeth as well as bite correction using either fixed or removable braces, to give our patients across Plymouth, straight, healthy teeth and a beautiful smile.
At Larkham House Dental Practice, we believe that a confident smile has no age limit. Orthodontic treatment is not just for children and teenagers—adult orthodontics is a rapidly growing area of our practice. More and more adults are choosing to straighten their teeth, improve their bite, and boost their confidence through discreet, effective orthodontic care.
Whether you’re an adult who missed out on braces as a child, someone whose teeth have shifted over time, or a patient looking to prepare for other cosmetic or restorative dental treatments, we’re here to help.
Almost anyone! Braces are suitable for children, teens, and adults alike. At Larkham House, we offer orthodontic treatment to:

If you’re unsure whether braces or another option is right for you, we’ll be happy to guide you through a personalised consultation.
