Services
Metal Braces
Metal braces provide effective orthodontic treatment through durable stainless steel brackets and wires. This proven solution gradually aligns teeth for improved function and aesthetics. Our experienced orthodontists customise treatment plans to address individual alignment issues while ensuring patient comfort throughout the process.
White Braces
White braces offer a discreet alternative to traditional metal braces using tooth-coloured ceramic brackets. These aesthetic appliances provide effective tooth alignment while maintaining a natural appearance. Our specialists recommend them for patients seeking less visible orthodontic treatment options that still deliver reliable results.
Lingual Braces
Lingual braces are custom-fitted orthodontic appliances positioned behind the teeth for complete invisibility. This solution combines advanced technology with precise placement to correct alignment issues while maintaining aesthetic discretion. Ideal for patients seeking effective treatment without visible front-facing brackets.
Invisalign
Invisalign uses a series of custom-made, removable clear aligners to gradually straighten teeth without traditional brackets. This innovative system offers convenient, nearly invisible treatment suitable for many orthodontic cases. Our specialists create personalised digital treatment plans to achieve optimal alignment outcomes.
Retainers
Retainers are essential post-treatment devices that maintain corrected tooth positions after braces removal. We provide custom-fitted removable and fixed retainers to ensure long-term stability of orthodontic results. Our team educates patients on proper care and usage to preserve their newly aligned smiles.

Im very pleased with the treatment I have recently received from Dr Aljubouri and his colleagues. I am in my 40s and I attended another orthodontic practice as a teenager. The further treatment at Giffnock Orthodontic Centre has been successful.

I want to share my opinion about this centre as they are fantastic! I had tried many orthodontists in my life before I started the treatment at GOC, but their ideas didn't work for me. Also, they had tried to convince me to the very expensive treatment, and they didn't offer me an NHS refund. I was very desperate, and I finally found Dr Yas, who made things easy. He'd offered me NHS refund treatment and a simple solution for my terrible bite. I've worn a brace for 1.5 years, and now I have beautiful teeth and straight bite. My dream of having beautiful teeth came true. I recommended Dr Yas to my

Both of my kids have attended for braces. To say we are happy with the results would be an understatement. Their teeth are fantastic and from start to finish we received exemplary care. The staff are all kind, polite and understanding with a special mention to Fadi and George whos work is world class. Thank you all.
