Book a free consultation with our dentist or orthodontist. See your future smile before you commit to a thing.
Highly recommend TG’s, all the staff are extremely professional, friendly and welcoming. Currently having Invisalign treatment with Ana, she has been amazing, so kind & attentive, can’t wait for the finished result!
It's a low-pressure, no-obligation way to see what's possible for your smile. Here's exactly what to expect.
Tell us when suits you
Fill in the short form and our team will call you back to book your free consultation at your nearest TG's Dental Suite. Five locations to choose from, evening appointments available.
Meet your dentist or orthodontist
Sit down with your clinician for a proper one-to-one. They'll listen to what you want to change about your smile and assess what's realistic for you.
See your future smile
Using our iTero 3D scanner, we'll show you a digital simulation of your finished result, before you spend a penny. No messy moulds, no guesswork.
Decide if it's right for you
There's no pressure to commit. But if you sign up for treatment on the same day, you'll save £250 off your treatment fee.
Start your journey, your way
Spread the cost over 12 months with 0% finance. Your treatment coordinator will support you from day one until your final reveal.
A free, in-depth consultation with our dentist or orthodontist. A digital preview of your future smile. And up to £250 off your treatment if you decide to go ahead. Here's the full breakdown:
Free consultation - sit down with your clinician and talk through your goals in a relaxed, judgement-free setting
Free iTero 3D smile simulation - see a digital preview of your future smile before committing
£250 off your treatment fee - applied when you sign up on the same day as your consultation
0% APR finance for 12 months - spread the cost into manageable monthly payments, no deposit required after your consultation
Straightening your teeth changes how you feel about yourself, but the benefits don't stop at confidence. Properly aligned teeth are easier to clean, which means healthier gums and a lower risk of decay over time. A balanced bite supports better chewing and digestion, takes pressure off your jaw and can even improve your speech. The aesthetic lift is the part you'll notice in the mirror. The health gains are the part you'll feel for years.
There's a reason patients keep coming back, and bringing their families. We're not the kind of practice where you feel rushed, judged or pressured. We're the kind where the team knows your name, takes the time to explain things properly, and genuinely wants you to leave smiling.
We're one of the top providers of Invisalign in the country. That status isn't given out lightly. It reflects the volume, quality and experience of the cases we deliver year after year.
If the dentist makes you anxious, you're far from alone. Our clinicians are trained in IV sedation for adults and children, and the whole team is known for being calm, patient and reassuring. Plenty of our patients tell us we've changed how they feel about dentistry.
You get the time, technology and quality of private dentistry, at prices that don't make you wince. 0% finance makes treatment even easier to plan around your monthly budget.
Whether you're closest to Leicester (Scraptoft), Higham Ferrers, Earls Barton, Ashby-de-la-Zouch or Rugby, you'll get the same approach: friendly, modern, and built around you.
A lot of the people who walk through our doors haven't been to a dentist in years. Some haven't been since childhood. We get it, and we never make you feel bad for it.
Our clinicians include dentists trained in IV sedation, so if your anxiety runs deep, we can help you through treatment in a way that feels manageable. For most people, just meeting the team and having things explained properly is enough to settle the nerves.
You set the pace. We'll never push you into anything you're not ready for.
There's no one-size-fits-all answer to teeth straightening, which is why we offer more than one option.
The world-leading clear aligner system. Nearly invisible, removable for eating and brushing, and designed to fit around your life. The most popular choice for adults who want a discreet way to straighten their smile.
A clear, removable alternative that gently guides your teeth into place. A good fit for milder cases and patients looking for a budget-friendly option.
Today's braces are nothing like the ones you remember. Smaller, smarter brackets and heat-activated wires move teeth more quickly and comfortably than older systems. Tooth-coloured brackets are available if discretion matters.
At your free consultation, our dentist or orthodontist will recommend the best option for your teeth, your goals and your lifestyle. No pushing the most expensive route. Just the right route for you.
We believe in being upfront about cost. Treatment prices vary depending on what your teeth need and which option you choose, which is why your free consultation is the best place to get an accurate quote.
What you can count on:
£250 off your treatment fee if you sign up on the day of your consultation in May
0% APR finance available, spread the cost over 12 months with no deposit
A clear, written quote before you commit to anything
No hidden fees, no surprise add-ons
Affordable private dentistry shouldn't be a contradiction. At TG's, it isn't.
Yes. The consultation itself is free during May, with no obligation to book treatment afterwards. The £250 saving applies if you decide to go ahead on the same day.
Yes. We'll use our iTero 3D scanner to capture a detailed model of your teeth, then show you a digital simulation of your finished smile. You can decide what to do next with the full picture in front of you.
It depends on the complexity of your case and the option you choose. We'll give you an accurate, written quote at your free consultation. Most patients spread the cost over 12 months at 0% APR.
Modern teeth straightening is far more comfortable than the braces you might remember. Clear aligners apply gentle pressure and the early days of mild tightness usually settle within a few days. Our team will guide you through every step.
Absolutely. A huge proportion of our patients tell us they used to dread dental visits. Our clinicians are trained in IV sedation and the team is known for taking things slowly and explaining everything as we go. You're in safe hands.
All five: Leicester (Scraptoft), Higham Ferrers, Earls Barton, Ashby-de-la-Zouch and Rugby. Choose your nearest practice when you book.
Our May offer ends Friday 29th May. Free consultation, free smile simulation, and £250 off if you sign up on the day. Take 30 seconds to reserve your savings.
