At The Campbell Clinic in Nottingham, we offer fixed braces as a proven, highly effective way to straighten teeth and improve your bite.

Fixed braces give your orthodontist full control over tooth movement, making them ideal for moderate to severe alignment issues. We offer both traditional metal and more discreet ceramic options to suit your preferences.
