I called Friday evening to see if they had emergency appointments due to serious tooth pain. They were very polite and willing to accommodate. Due to me being a 45-minute drive away — the closest dentist I could find on Google that was open — they assured me they would see me when I got there. Upon arrival the staff were so polite and welcoming. The expertise and advice before the procedure was amazing. Definitely worth the trip to get the pain away. 100% recommend them.

Wakefield to Deepcar: what the drive buys you
The Wakefield pages that rank for aligners are keen on the words nearly invisible and comfortable, quote nine to eighteen months, and then lose their nerve at the price: one of the top pages links to a fees page that does not load. None name the dentist who would treat you, and none describe what you should expect to see in the mirror at the end. Where Wakefield practices publish a figure, minor cases start a little under £2,000.
A 40-minute drive is only worth it for something better, so here is what Deepcar Dental Care offers a Wakefield patient: front-teeth straightening from £1,495 per arch with retainers in, a four-to-nine-month timeline, one dentist from scan to retainer, and reviews at 8am or 7pm seven days a week so the M1 is quiet both ways. Free parking is outside the door. And because the point of all this is the result, the rest of this page describes what a good one looks like, and what an honest dentist will tell you it cannot fix. Our main straightening page has the practice’s general description.
Five marks of a well-finished case, and two compromises to expect
When we sign a case off, we are checking a short list. You can use it to judge any simulated result you are shown, ours included.
The front teeth follow the lower lip.
The centre line is in the middle.
The gum line is even.
The teeth touch their neighbours.
The bite has not got worse.
The compromises: short-term treatment tips teeth rather than moving the whole root, so a tooth that is deeply rotated may end up ninety per cent corrected rather than perfect, and it treats the front six to eight teeth only, so a crooked premolar behind them stays where it is. Both are explained on the simulation before you commit. A good result is a smile that looks like yours, tidied, not a set of identical white blocks.

Questions, answered
Teeth straightening: questions from Wakefield patients
How many trips from Wakefield will the whole course take?
Seven to nine over four to nine months. Reviews are every six to eight weeks and last ten to fifteen minutes, and most Wakefield patients book weekend mornings when the M1 is clear.
Why come to Deepcar rather than a Wakefield clinic?
A price you can read, retainers in it, one dentist throughout and seven-day opening. If a Wakefield practice gives you all four in writing, stay local.
Will the simulated result be exactly what I get?
No simulation is a guarantee. Ours is close for tipping movements and optimistic for rotations, and your dentist will point to the teeth where the picture flatters.
Can you make my teeth perfectly straight and level?
We can make them straight; perfectly level edges usually look artificial. The aim is edges that follow your lip, which sometimes needs a little bonding to finish.
I have a gap where a tooth was taken out. Will that be closed?
Front gaps can often be closed; a back gap is usually kept and the tooth replaced afterwards. Our implants for Wakefield page explains the order.
Do I whiten before or after?
After, once the teeth are in position, so the colour is even across the new smile; see our teeth whitening page for prices.
In their own words
What patients say.
Dr Ibrahim helped me today with a difficult extraction. He is my hero for the dedication, skill and professionalism shown today. It was a tough one but wow. I was in so much pain and he saved me from it. I am eternally grateful to him. Just brilliant.
Visited today for a private emergency appointment. The practice was very clean and tidy, the staff very friendly and helpful. They really listened to my concerns and put me at ease. Addressed the problem and extracted my tooth — nothing was too much trouble. Swift service — top notch.
