Services
Invisalign
Invisalign uses custom-made clear aligners to straighten teeth discreetly. Ideal for adults and teens seeking bracket-free solutions, this treatment corrects crowding, overbites, and spacing issues. Our team employs Dental Monitoring for remote progress tracking, reducing in-person visits while ensuring optimal results.
Braces
Traditional braces offer precise tooth movement for complex cases. Available in metal, ceramic, and gold options, they address severe misalignment and bite issues. Regular adjustments by our specialists ensure gradual, lasting improvements in dental alignment and oral health.
Retainers
Retainers maintain teeth alignment after orthodontic treatment. Custom-fitted removable or fixed options prevent relapse, ensuring long-term stability. We provide guidance on care and wear schedules to preserve your transformed smile indefinitely.
iTero Scanner
The iTero scanner creates 3D digital impressions for accurate treatment planning. This non-invasive technology replaces traditional putty molds, offering real-time visuals of your teeth and bite. It enhances precision in designing Invisalign trays and braces placement.
Dental Monitoring
Dental Monitoring allows patients to track treatment progress via smartphone scans. This app-based system reduces clinic visits by enabling remote adjustments, ensuring timely interventions. It supports compliance and maintains treatment efficiency for Invisalign and braces patients.

Report
Very pleased with the service I received at Beam. Great facilities, modern equipment and knowledgable staff across the team. Would highly recommend Beam orthodontics and this is the best practice in the area - I visited several others before choosing Beam and it was a good decision. It is well worth getting qualified orthodontists when considering any form of braces. Thank you to the team @ Beam.

I got my braces just before the pandemic hit in Feb 2020 and changed all our lives. Beams professionalism and first class service throughout both 2020 and 2021 has been top notch. I couldnt recommend them more. To be able to smile and not worry about it been crooked is one of the best feelings, and once the treatment is done you will be smiling. Thanks to everyone at Beam.

Been with Beam for 3 years. Generally good service up until the end when I had 704 left of a 4000 bill to pay and they assured me twice I would still be able to have them off and on the very last minute, inside the practise on de-brace day they said they couldn't take them off. I had a full breakdown in the practise. My fiance payed 500 to have them taken off. I'll be their customer continuously until we get married quarters in England but my relationship with them has broken down and I cant say I'll be as hyped as I usually am going places to be visiting there after having my heart broke

I went to beam orthodontist to see about receiving Invisalign to close a gap in the middle of my 2 front teeth and now I no longer have that gap and overall my teeth have never looked better. I now feel more confident smiling in photos and I cant thank the staff enough for being so helpful and making me feel at ease from the minute I walked in the door.

I had a fantastic experience with Beam Orthodontics and I am so happy I decided to go ahead with Invisalign. My treatment was quick and easy and the dental monitoring facility meant that I hardly needed to… visit the clinic until the final stretch of the journey. I was blown away with my results. Continuously smiling from ear to ear, thanks to Beam😄

From the minute I walked into beam the staff could not have been more helpful. The whole process was well explained to me and I never felt in the dark about anything. I finished my treatment today and the amount of self esteem and confidence I have gained I cannot describe and I owe it all to everyone at beam. If you are thinking about getting orthodontic work done here then don't think twice, it's the gem of Dundee! Thanks Again everyone!
