Crowded top teeth

Crowding of the upper teeth can make everyday oral care challenging, as tightly packed teeth are harder to clean effectively.

At Reading Smiles, we provide a selection of orthodontic treatments designed to correct crowded upper teeth, helping you improve your smile and overall dental health.

Crowded bottom teeth

Crowding of the bottom teeth can also make it very difficult to maintain a good oral hygiene routine.

Here at Reading Smiles, we offer a variety of orthodontic appliances for crowded teeth, helping to make you look and feel fantastic!

Crowded top & bottom teeth

When both the upper and lower teeth are crowded, maintaining healthy teeth and gums becomes increasingly difficult.

At Reading Smiles, we provide affordable orthodontic options that address overcrowding comprehensively, offering long-term solutions that enhance dental function and help you achieve a confident, balanced smile.

Spaced Teeth

Spaced or gappy teeth can impact self-confidence and make oral hygiene less effective, as food and bacteria may accumulate more easily.

Reading Smiles offers orthodontic treatments that gently close spaces between teeth, improving dental function and helping you feel more comfortable and confident with your smile.

Open Bite

An open bite occurs when the upper and lower front teeth fail to meet, often caused by habits, eruptive issues, or jaw discrepancies.

This condition can affect chewing, speech, and jaw comfort. Reading Smiles provides orthodontic treatments designed to correct open bites and restore proper function.

Over Bite

An overbite occurs when the upper teeth extend too far forward, often due to genetics or underdeveloped supporting bone.

This misalignment can irritate gums and wear down lower teeth.

At Reading Smiles, we offer corrective orthodontic solutions designed to realign your bite and improve long-term oral health.

Crossbite

A crossbite happens when one or more upper teeth bite inside the lower teeth, caused by misalignment of the teeth or jaws.

This can lead to enamel wear, gum issues, and bone changes.

Reading Smiles offers targeted orthodontic treatments to correct crossbites and support healthier dental function.

Orthodontic FAQ’s

What is orthodontic treatment?

Orthodontic treatment can not only improve the appearance of your teeth but it can also improve the health of your teeth!

By undergoing orthodontic treatment and straightening your teeth, you are spreading the biting pressure more evenly across all of your teeth.

This in turn alleviates the strain on your jaw muscles, the same muscles that can often cause issues with your jaw joints.

Why should I have orthodontic treatment?

Orthodontic treatment does not only improve the overall appearance of your teeth and smile, but it also helps to improve the long term health of your teeth!

By straightening your crowded or “crooked” teeth, orthodontic treatment will improve how your teeth bite together.

Often people’s teeth do not meet together correctly, but this puts unnecessary strain on your jaw muscles and also damages your teeth.

This can also lead to jaw joint problems which can sometimes also be accompanied by headaches.

When is orthodontic treatment used?

There are a wide variety of dental problems that orthodontic treatment can solve. These include;

Crowding of the teeth. Crowding is often caused when there isn’t enough space for your teeth in your mouth. This can often be due to having a narrow jaw.

Protruding upper front teeth. Protruding teeth are one of the most common causes for the requirement of orthodontic treatment.

Impacted teeth. This is when some of your teeth grow in the wrong position, so they may not emerge as they should.

Asymmetrical or “crooked” teeth. This is when your upper and lower teeth do not match up together.

A deep bite is when your upper front teeth almost completely overlap the lower front teeth and a reverse bite is when your upper teeth bite inside of your lower teeth. An open bite is when your upper and lower front teeth do not touch when your jaw is closed normally.

Will I need to have any teeth taken out to make room for orthodontic treatment?

Many people suffer with overcrowded teeth.

Often, we will be able to move your teeth to make room, but in some cases, some permanent teeth may need to be removed in order for there to be enough room.

Everyone’s teeth are different, so here at Reading Smiles, our award winning team will advise you on the best solution for your personal case.

How do you straighten my teeth?

Here at Reading Smiles, we offer a wide range of orthodontic treatments, which are all most commonly referred to as “braces”.

In order to ensure that we have treatment options available to suit everyone’s own individual needs, we carry out multiple orthodontic options such as the discreet, Invisalign, clear removable braces.

How long do orthodontic treatments take to complete?

Depending on a number of factors, including the complexity and severity of your own individual case, orthodontic treatment can take between 5 to 24 months to straighten your teeth.

At your initial consultation at Reading Smiles, we will advise you on all of the different treatment options that are available to you and provide you with an estimate of how long they will take to complete, in order to help you to make an informed decision on which orthodontic treatment to go ahead with.

How many visits will it take?

This depends entirely on the type of orthodontic treatment that you chose to have.

This could be visits between every 2 weeks to every 8 weeks.

Will it hurt?

This is one of our most frequently asked questions here at Reading Smiles.

Braces may feel strange at the beginning of your treatment and can cause some slight discomfort.

This often only last for a short period of time as your teeth and mouth will quickly settle and adjust to the brace and usually, after just a couple of days, most discomfort will have subsided.

How much will braces cost?

The cost of straightening your teeth will vary, depending on the type of orthodontic treatment and the severity of your case.

Here at Reading Smiles, at your initial consultation, we will offer you guidance on all of the different orthodontic options available to you, which will also specify the costs of the treatment options discussed.

No matter which orthodontic treatment you decide to go with, you will receive complimentary teeth whitening (worth £295) and removable retainers (worth £150) at no extra charge!

What causes crooked teeth?

There are a multiple number of reasons as to why your teeth may have grown, be growing crooked or sit overcrowded.

They can be inherited from your parents. Often the children of parents that suffer with malformed jaws are more likely to have crooked teeth.

Sometimes, your baby teeth may fall our too early, this can also be a cause for crowded or crooked teeth.

Another common reason can be that your jaw is too small to accommodate for all of your adult teeth.

cesare lupattelli

This is a great place to go take care of your teeth. The team is very professional...would highly recommend to anyone.

B EH

I was quite nervous about needing a complicated root canal, but Dr Marina completely put me at ease. She was so gentle, patient and kind from start to finish. The treatment was spread over two fairly long appointments, yet I didn’t experience any pain or discomfort at all. I really appreciated how professional she and her nurses were throughout. I’d also like to mention the reception staff, who were always friendly, polite and happy to help. Everyone made what could have been a stressful experience much easier. Thank you all!

Sarah Nitchkey

Excellent service! Everyone was friendly, kind, and put me at ease. The space is lovely and well-maintained. They were very kind about me needing headphones and a fidget during my appointments. It can be a bit warm upstairs, so wear layers if you're sensitive to temps.

R R

I've been avoiding dentists for the past 15 years, based on previous bad experiences and knowing that I desperately needed some work done, but felt ashamed about the state of my teeth. I was highly recommended Reading Smiles. I had a great hygienist appointment and some much needed dental work with Dr Philo Menon, who put me at ease from my very first appointment and has looked after me. I'm so impressed with the treatment and care that I've received so far, that I've decided to have invisaline, something that I wanted to do many years ago. I've received great service by highly skilled staff, in a clean and modern practice at decent prices. I can't recommend Reading Smiles high enough!

Hereward Hall

Very good practice. Both friendly and professional. Dentist I am assigned to, Dr Sonam, is very good. Already had 2 sessions of dental surgery.

Maria Gonzalez

Dr Shona has been fantastic throughout my treatment. He is professional, caring, and always takes the time to explain everything clearly. My implants blend so perfectly with my natural teeth that you cannot tell the difference. The only downside is that appointments often run about 15 minutes late, but the excellent care and results more than make up for it. Highly recommended.

Colin Richardson

On my first visit to Reading Smiles I was greeted by friendly receptionists. The interior of the building is immaculate and I was put at ease with all the staffs kindness and professionalism. It’s immediately obvious that they are all very considerate and excellent at what they do.

Gabriela Fok

I have been a client at Reading Smile with Dayle (Greenfield) for a couple of years. The team at Reading Smile are friendly and professional, and Dayle has helped me to sort out a lot of my problems, as well as referring me to specialist (Marina Spanaki) to get me the most effective treatments. Every single one of the clinician's I have met are really helpful and I am grateful for every visit.

Matthew Venter

Just had a flawless 5/5 Airflow hygiene treatment with Dr. Philo. Would highly recommend.

Stevie Lux

The whole team at RS are always a pleasure to deal with, they are always accommodating and nothing is ever too much trouble. Sham and her assistants are wonderful and, although I didn’t start my treatment with her, I am glad she was the dentist who completed my treatment as I’m so happy with the results!

Berin Dzenetic

Had a great experience here, very clean professional and they take their time to explain everything. Dr Jaspel and Dayle were exceptional.

Derek Luce

Dr. Krupesh has been fantastic, not to mention all the other clinical and admin staff. My alignment work has been great. It is a well run operation. Thanks again guys Derek

April Sung

I had a filling this morning with Dr Dayle and Kalpana. I was extremely nervous prior to my treatment as I hadn’t had a filling since I was a child, however both were extremely professional, friendly and welcoming, which made me feel at ease. Dayle walked through all the steps prior and during the treatment which I really appreciated. After the treatment was finished, Dayle explained what he saw during treatment (I wanted all the details!) and provided advice on aftercare. The treatment was painless and I’m super happy with the results and treatment from both Dr Dayle and Kalpana :) The reception staff are always lovely and extremely welcoming when you arrive and leave which always helps!

mounia

I recently completed my Invisalign treatment with Dr. Amorim, who was incredibly professional, patient in explaining every step of the process, and thorough in following up throughout my treatment. The results have been truly outstanding I couldn't be happier with my smile! I cannot thank Dr. Amorim enough. I would also like to extend my gratitude to Mario, who is always welcoming, kind, and a pleasure to be greeted by at the clinic. I would wholeheartedly recommend this clinic to all my friends and family.

Leia Doyle

I recently attended a hygiene appointment and was looked after by Paige. She was exceptionally professional, friendly, and reassuring throughout the entire experience, immediately putting me at ease. Her excellent telephone manner made a great first impression from the moment I booked my appointment, and her warm, calming approach continued in person. Paige’s customer service was outstanding, and I couldn’t be happier with the care I received. Thank you, Paige, for such a positive experience.

Ms. Cooper

I had a very good experience here. Dr. Ajay and Ms. Revu were kind and efficient, gave me peace of mind as they took care of my teeth. Thank you! The practice also recently helped my husband with a dental emergency. The extended opening hours are very convenient.

DLPZ

I’ve been coming to Reading Smiles since I moved to Reading eight years ago, but it was only a couple of years ago that I decided to truly invest in my smile by starting Invisalign and replacing a tooth implant that had been twisting my smile since 2011. Dr. Amorin took wonderful care of my Invisalign treatment, and Dr. Yusuf handled my implant. In both cases, the attention to detail and level of care were absolutely outstanding. I was especially impressed with the implant surgery—I expected it to be painful and uncomfortable, but it was nothing like that at all! I couldn’t have imagined a better experience, and my only regret is not doing it sooner. The entire team at Reading Smiles is incredible—Mario and all the lovely ladies at reception, the amazing nurses, and of course the doctors. They are always kind, professional, and truly dedicated to creating real, confident smiles. Thank you all so much, you’ve made such a difference! 💛

Dee Magee

I have had the most amazing experience from the lovely staff at the front desk, to my hygenist and most importantly my dentist Dr Johana. Highly recommend visiting Reading Smiles.

Rudolf Tilko

Eniko was fantastic as a hygienist: professional, efficient and lovely. Happy with the results. My recent experience of getting Invisalign here could not have been more straightforward. Ana has been wonderful at organising my appointments and ensuring that even last minute rescheduling has been without issue. Sami the orthodontist has been professional and made sure all of my concerns were addressed making me feel at ease throughout the process. Overall I would highly recommend Reading Smiles to anyone thinking of getting any dental work.

Praneet Parate

I have been visiting Dr. Johana for my dental treatment, and my experience has been excellent throughout. Her assessments and approach to treatment are methodical, and I truly appreciate her commitment, passion, and attention to detail. I would also like to appreciate Ana, who consistently goes above and beyond to ensure phenomenal customer satisfaction. Her professionalism, customer empathy, and proactive approach in supporting patients truly stand out and make all the interactions smooth and reassuring. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for quality dental care and a great patient experience!
