The third Bristol Orthodontics Centre – Whitetree Orthodontic Centre – originally opened in 1999 and joined our organisation in November 2004. There are currently three ground floor surgeries and the practice is fully computerised. Three of our specialist orthodontists work at the Whitetree Centre and are helped by our large team of orthodontic nurses , PCDs (orthodontic auxiliary) and receptionists.

The reception area is your first point of contact with the practice. It is fully computerised and staffed at most times by at least two receptionists. They are responsible for checking you in and out of the practice, making appointments and taking telephone enquiries.

Once you have checked in with a receptionist, if your orthodontist is not available to see you immediately, there is a patient lounge in which you may take a seat. It is fully air-conditioned for your comfort and there is a television and a selection of magazines to read.

This is one of the three treatment areas in the practice. The equipment is all very new and the minimalist design helps make it easy to keep clean and tidy. Each chair is fully computerised.

We use as many disposable items as possible at each treatment for the protection of all our patients, but any instruments we have to re-use are sterilised at 134˚C every time they are touched. This ensures that there is no risk of cross-infection between patients.

As part of the orthodontic examination, it is often necessary to take radiographs (x-rays). We have very modern machines to enable us to take the best possible images. The x-ray room and our procedures are carefully designed for your maximum protection against unnecessary exposure to radiation. We also take care to send copies of our x-rays to your dentist to avoid the need for unnecessary duplication.
