I have always been interested in Orthodontics and Orthodontic problems still fascinate me even after 20 years. I enjoy the challenge of solving problems and crafting beautiful smiles. I love seeing their problem unravel at each visit and sharing in my patients' excitement. I have a modern practice but I subscribe to old-fashioned values of mutual trust and respect.
I would like my patients to feel relaxed with me and my team. I strive to deliver the best I can with an honest, sensible approach to treatment, that I hope is appreciated and works predictably in my hands. I love the feeling of being helpful and making a difference to others. Working in my practice for 15 years I am grateful for the pleasure of building lasting relationships with my patients and following up my work the longer term.

We can help with a variety of conditions. Before choosing a brace, it is important to work out the features that concern you and plan a treatment suitable for your needs. Orthodontic problems usually present with combinations of features which may include the following. Gaps between the teeth can develop in children & adults.
Healthy teeth can be moved by applying continuous gentle forces. Braces are tools that deliver forces to the teeth. Orthodontists are trained in the science and craft of moving teeth with braces. An experienced orthodontist can choose the right brace to skillfully deliver the best result for you.
The planning & delivery of the result is in the skill of the orthodontist, who uses the digital tools to design the aligners for predictability, efficiency & accuracy of your outcome.There is a misconception that the brace is automatically designed by a computer & therefore bypasses the clinicians skills.

Orthodontic treatment has become very commercial and it is easy to forget that moving roots of teeth through the bone, is a medical treatment with benefits as well as risks. 3-6 weeks after the first consultation, we can fit the brace and teach you how to look after it. We follow you up a week later to see how you are doing.
We believe in a pricing structure for treatment that is fully inclusive of consultation, records, braces & retainers & and excellent value. An opinion about your orthodontic needs, treatment aims, brace options, costs, timescales and a written estimate. Detailed clinical assessment with clinical photographs, digital scans & X-ray of your teeth.
Every one of our patients has their own special story. We would like to thank all our patients who have kindly shared their experience to help you in making the first move. I had not been entirely happy with my smile all my life.
Having slipped through the dental/orthodontic net in the 1970s and 1980s (only the most urgent cases were put forward for treatment and I was not considered one of them), and on becoming aware of the fact that my overcrowded mouth was not improving as I got older, I decided to bite the bullet and do something about it.

I couldn't be happier with the brilliant treatment my son received from Ritu and the whole team at Chichester Orthodontic Clinic. Ritu was gentle and caring at each appointment and was wonderful at explaining every step of the treatment in a clear and concise way. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for orthodontic treatment.

I wish to give a great big thank you to Ritu and her wonderful team Karen, Alice and Marie for my fantastic new SMILE 😁 I would without question recommend Ritu she is wonderful orthodontist so knowledgeable and explained everything so clearly to the process of my treatment. It was a journey having four teeth extracted and then train tracks with a various array of bands and tightenings but I would do it all again to get where I am now. My only regret is not doing it tens years earlier. I wanted to try and take pictures of my journey to help others see how things move and encourage others

I am writing this review on behalf of my nine year old daughter who is about to commence treatment to align and straighten her teeth. She will be using twin block braces, wire braces and then a retainer. She was so impressed with all of the staff at the Chichester Orthodontic Clinic, who were friendly and explained the treatment from a scientific and an emotional impact perspective. My daughter felt very relaxed and confident about the journey she is about to take to keep her smile beautiful for life. Well done Chichester Orthodontic Clinic - smiling as I write!
