My son's just completed his treatment and the end result is outstanding. His teeth look amazing now thanks to Dr Isherwood and the team. In the 26months of coming to the surgery we never had anything other than excellent care. Thank you

My Son finished Treatment here with Grant last year and, after following his expert aftercare advice, his teeth are still perfect. Luckily, Grant agreed to take us on mid-treatment after a move from overseas left us with no Orthodonist, but it was a very smooth transition, even with the unusual/older method of braces my son had. Each visit was informative and my teenager really trusted Grant. We would both highly recommend a visit if you want expert treatment from professionals who really care about your best interests, listen to you and give you options, too. I will be taking my youngest there, when she is old enough to have the treatment it's looking like she'll need.

Dr Javaid has been absolutely fantastic and very patient with my extremely nervous daughter during her whole experience from having her braces fitted straight through to having them removed today. We are very pleased with the service provided by Dr Javaid and would definitely recommend her. Thank you so much, my daughter cannot stop smiling now!

After trying 3 different orthodontic practices and being refused treatment by all 3 due to the large amount of private dental work needed I tried Stoke Orthodontics and met with Dr Javaid. Immediately the staff put me at ease and I found the initial consultation very informative. I went ahead with the treatment offered and 2 years later I could not be more pleased with the results! Every appointment I have found all staff to be professional and friendly. Stoke Orthodontics have provided a service above and beyond my expectations. Thankyou!

I cannot recommend this orthodontic surgery enough, especially as an adult patient. Every member of staff has been friendly and helpful at each visit. I was so nervous going in as an adult patient for metal braces but Dr Javaid made me feel welcome and informed from the very start. We talked through lots of options and I chose ceramic braces for the top as it would be less noticeable. I have only had 1 problem in 2.5 years and the lovely receptionist fit me in the very same day to have it fixed.

I was consistently kept in the loop about my progress and different options available to me and nothing has ever been too much trouble even throughout Covid-19! I had my braces off today and I can not believe the results.after roughly 17 years I finally feel like I can smile again and I don't have to hide my teeth. Thank you so very much to all the staff and to Dr Javaid for such a positive experience. I don't think I'll ever be able to explain the difference you have made to how I feel! Thank you!
