Services
Clear Aligners
Discreet, removable aligners that straighten teeth without metal brackets. Ideal for adults and teens seeking a nearly invisible solution. Our custom-made aligners use advanced 3D technology for precise tooth movement, with fewer clinic visits required due to AI-powered remote monitoring. Patients appreciate the comfort and flexibility to eat and clean teeth normally.
Damon Braces
High-performance braces with sliding mechanism brackets that reduce friction and treatment time. Available in metal or clear options, they apply gentle, continuous force for faster results. Particularly effective for complex cases like severe crowding or bite issues. Patients benefit from fewer adjustments and greater comfort compared to traditional braces.
Teeth Whitening
Professional-grade whitening treatments to enhance smiles post-orthodontic care. Our custom trays and whitening gels deliver even results without damaging enamel. The process typically takes 2-4 weeks with daily 30-minute applications. Patients achieve up to 8 shades lighter, with options for touch-ups to maintain long-lasting brightness.
Virtual Consultations
Free remote consultations using digital imaging and video calls to discuss treatment options. Patients submit photos or use our app for initial assessments without visiting the clinic. This service helps determine suitability for treatments like aligners or braces, with follow-up in-person appointments scheduled for confirmed cases.
Smile Makeovers
Full-mouth transformations combining braces, aligners, and restorative treatments. We address multiple concerns including crooked teeth, gaps, and bite issues while enhancing aesthetics. Treatment may integrate dental bonding or veneers for optimal results. Patients receive a coordinated plan to achieve both functional improvement and a confident, aesthetically pleasing smile.

I have recently finished Invisalign treatment with Dr Usmani. I am over the moon with the results. For years I have been unhappy with my teeth, especially on photographs. During lockdown I made the decision to go for treatment and Dr Usmani was fantastic right from the start. She listened to what I wanted to achieve and was really lovely. In the end my teeth are better than I expected them to be.
The treatment was easy and fast. The dental monitoring service was fantastic and allowed me to take control of my treatment with reduced visits to the surgery which was helpful with work and also due to

Visited with my daughter. The whole atmosphere was quite oppressive. The orthodontist we saw was aggressive and rude to my daughter. I have chosen to now pay for her treatment elsewhere. No chance we would go back here.

I recently completed my Damon braces treatment at HM Orthodontics to straighten my teeth. From my initial consultation with Dr Bhatti I found him and the rest of the team very professional and understanding. We talked about my aspirations from the treatment and the timescales and drivers (completing the treatment in time for my wedding). My treatment revolved around having braces over the course of 23 months and had to visit Dr Bhatti at regular intervals to have them adjusted. Finally after almost 2 years of treatment I got the braces removed. My overbite has been corrected and my teeth are now

I had an Invisalign treatment here at Heaton Mersey Orthodontics, and my smile was improved drastically. I had a huge overbite and Invisalign fixed this completely! Dr Bhatti and the staff were extremely supportive and always ensured I was happy all throughout the plan. Dr Bhatti is a perfectionist, and that can definitely be seen in my new smile!
