First of all, we listen to our patients. We then carry out an examination of the face, mouth and teeth. This is often sufficient to determine treatment need, the broad options for treatment and likely costs. The full consultation process necessitates x-rays and impressions for plaster models with a second visit to discuss matters in detail.
If you don't find the Question & Answer you are looking for, more information to be found in the 'About Orthodontics' section or call us to speak to a member of our team. Most patients seek orthodontic treatment to obtain a great smile. This is not vanity but recognition that an attractive smile is an essential component of positive self esteem.

The most positive experience and the best money spent during the pandemic. I suppose I should mention something about the practice and the team - very professional service, always striving for the best result. Thank you, Lucy and team, it has been an exciting journey and I am most grateful for the results.

What can I say! The whole of Reigate Specialist orthodontic practice have been absolutely brilliant, all the way from reception to the orthodontic team! I had had a few issues with me teeth and at 25, I was quite nervous about getting braces so I spoke to Lucy and she reassured me and helped me decide on the best treatment for my teeth. I've recently had my braces removed, and I couldn't be happier!
My teeth are now perfect and with that, I've become a lot more confident! The whole team were fantastic, reassuring and just great fun to be around! They easily deserves the 5 star rating they have! Thank you!

A wonderful experience from start to finish. The whole team at Reigate Specialist Orthodontics were wonderful and couldn't have done more to make me feel I was doing what I should have done years ago the right decision. With special thanks to Urvi whose ongoing professionalism and warm nature really made for a pleasant and pleasurable experience. Thank you!

From booking my appointments to the day my braces where removed, what l thought would be scary and hard process became enjoyable and so rewarding. Cannot thank Lucy and her team enough. At 57 years old her work has not only given me a Hollywood smile, but the added bonus has been a more youthful look as well as many more years of healthy teeth and gums. I will miss our chats. Lucy is the best of the best in her profession and a truly lovely person.

I am very happy with the results of my orthodontic treatment and am hugely grateful to Urvi and the whole team for everything they have done for me, especially given that some of the work was carried out during the height of COVID. The team are friendly, professional and clearly very experienced and I felt confident, right from the start, that we would attain my desired result, and we did! I would highly recommend Reigate Specialist Orthodontics to anyone looking for treatment as the service they deliver is five star - Clare Green

I wanted to say a huge thank you to Lucy and the team at Reigate Specialist Orthodontists. Lucy has done a wonderful job on my sons teeth and her professional and caring attitude has made him feel extremely happy throughout his treatment. I would also like to say a special thank you to Carol who has been fantastic with organising all his appointments.

A friendly, welcoming and professional specialist orthodontic practice. I was recommended by my dentist to see Lucy and her team for Invislign treatment and I am absolutely delighted with my results. They really want the best for you and to make sure that it is perfect. I could not be happier. I definitely recommend. Thank you!

As a dentist working in Reigate for the last 16 years, I have confidently sent countless patients to Lucy Harris and the team at Reigate Specialist Orthodontic Practice. The most recent of these was my own son who received absolutely brilliant care throughout his course of treatment. Lucy is an incredibly knowledgable clinician and also a very lovely person who puts everyone at ease.
My son has a fantastic result and is so pleased with everything you have done for him. In a world where 'quick fix' orthodontics is a very worrying trend, I cannot recommend a specialist orthodontist enough. Thank you.

After a horrendous experience at another practice in Woodhatch I thought I would have to settle with my teeth (which I wasn't happy with). My sister then recommended I go and have a conversation with Lucy at Reigate Orthodontist and I wish I went to her sooner! Lucy is a credit to the practice from the moment I met her I felt comfortable and reassured that she was able to help- I wasn't wrong! Lucy gave me the most beautiful smile with consistent high level of service and care.
I can't recommend Lucy enough. After my orthodontic treatment I attended the skin clinic with Dr Marjan, who again was so professional and caring! You truly are an amazing practice- every single one of you! Thank you all so much!

Lucy and her team have been outstanding from start to finish. My 14 year old daughter was apprehensive about starting her treatment but right from the beginning Lucy dealt with her in such a caring and kind way that she felt completely at ease. Lucy was very clear about what was required in terms of cleaning and maintaining oral health while wearing braces and my daughter immediately took responsibility for this as she wanted to please Lucy, who was quick to praise as much as possible. I highly recommend Lucy, and have now decided to get my own teeth straightened with Invisalign having seen the change in my daughter's smile!

I recently completed Invisalign treatment with my consultant Dr Lucy Harris to straighten both my top and bottom teeth and i'm more than happy with the results! I chose Reigate Orthodontics after researching several other practices and attending consultations. I was put at ease by Lucy's calm nature and her ability to ensure I had grasped the treatment ahead of me. Lucy gave me time to mull over my decision and never took the hard line sales tactics.
That was one of the things that attracted me to choose Reigate Orthodontics. My dentist and a mutual friend also recommended her as she has a good professional reputation in the area. Initially Lucy estimated a 6 month treatment and guided me as to what each milestone expectation was. Invisalign initially takes getting used to as i'm 41 and its been a while since I wore a brace! but after a couple of weeks, I found my groove and by following the treatment plan Lucy had outlined, I actually reduced my expected treatment time by 2 months! I was over the moon. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Reigate Orthodontics. The whole team is professional, kind, courteous. Just a really lovely practice. M Rundle

Lucy and her team are absolutely superb. We came to see Lucy after our own orthodentist stopped practising part-way through my son's treatment and a recommendation was made to extract 4 of his teeth. Seeking a second opinion, I could not have done better than reaching out to Lucy. She worked tirelessly to resolve the issues at hand and, within a year, sorted everything out - with no need for an extraction. This was not a straight forward case and Lucy handled it with great professionalism and her usual smile and calm demeaner (which no mask can hide). A huge thank you from us.

I cannot speak highly enough of the service received, professionalism and above all the results achieved by this superb team of healthcare professionals. It has not been easy working through Covid lockdown but Dr Harris and her team have managed to deliver at first class treatment programme resolving a tricky orthodontic problem. Communication has been excellent and we have felt secure, safe and looked after at every stage. Superb outcome with everyone delighted. Thank you to you all. Dr Richard Russell Consultant Physician

I reached out to Reigate Specialist Orthodontist as I was wanting my bottom-row of teeth to be straight (again!). I've had braces before, but unfortunately didn't wear my retainer throughout my teenage years. I had an online consultation with Dr Urvi Patel and right from the onset she made me feel confident and safe her professional hands. She knew exactly what I wanted, and got me there as quick (and professionally) as possible.
She throughly explained all my (many) questions through the process, with a positive and comforting approach throughout. I would absolutely recommend anyone looking for treatment to go through this Specialist, and you'd be a lucky patient to have Dr Urvi as your orthodontist.

Lucy and her team have treated both of my boys over the last 4 years. Braces for both top and bottom teeth. Lucy always took time to explain what the procedure would be every visit, she was kind, caring and a total perfectionist throughout the years of treatment. The team always tried to ensure appointments were made to avoid missing school lessons. I have to say, the finished result is excellent and it is good to see my children smiling with confidence and perfectly straight teeth. Completely worth it. Thank you.

I was really uncertain about tackling my irregular teeth as my dentist had always said it was a little late and a lot of hassle. However, in 2019 I started biting my lip more than every now and then, especially when chewing as my top and bottom teeth didn't meet at all. When I met Dr Lucy Harris for a discussion, she was so calm, thorough and reassuring.
Hearing about he process, support and timeframe made me want to correct my teeth more. I trusted her all the way as she was an absolute expert. I have had to speak to patients on a one to one, medical crowds and behind a mask due to the pandemic during my brace treatment and not only did Lucy and her Team support me immensely with any problems, provide continuity and excellent care but I also felt clear and confident with my brace.
I had my brace removed recently! I am so delighted with the result as it is one of the best decisions I have ever made with the best dental care I could have hoped for. Thank you so much to Lucy and the Reigate Orthodontics Team! I cannot recommend them enough.

I would highly recommend Reigate Orthodontics to everyone. If I had to sum up the practice in one word, it would be: caring (although 'superb' also comes to mind!). From my very first appointment, the orthodontic team have been amazing. They were kind, conversational and interested in me as both a patient and a person. If I had any queries about treatment, I could message Dr Lucy and receive a reply within minutes, relieving any concerns I had (although, I didn't have very many to begin with!).
I had to have two (healthy) teeth taken out to allow the braces to fit, which of course was a big life decision. However, Dr Lucy's skill and advice alleviated my worries. The practice itself is very welcoming, clean and comfortable; you're able to buy all the necessary dental hygiene kit you need to take care of your braces, retainer and teeth. The overall process has been very smooth - I didn't have any complications at all. I'm delighted with my results; having a beautiful smile gives me so much more confidence. Thank you, Dr Lucy!

I have just finished my orthodontic treatment so would like to say a huge thank you to Lucy. She always reassures, takes time to explain things and has always been very patient. I felt comfortable with her from my first appointment. Lucy even made a tooth for me when i became self conscious of my missing incisor and attached it to my brace. Lucy's nurse Claire, and receptionist Carol are also lovely. Ed H
