Fixed Braces in Rugby
No trays to remember, no discipline required, no case too crooked. We fit the modern Spark™ fixed brace system — brackets and wires refined a long way past the old-school metal “train track” braces you remember from school — working on your teeth 24 hours a day until the job’s done.
- £3,950 all told — your exact plan in writing before anything starts
- Handles complex cases that clear aligners can’t
- Fitted and looked after by Dr Ashwin Patel at every visit
Told aligners can’t fix your teeth — or know yourself too well?
Fixed braces people usually arrive here one of two ways: their case genuinely needs movements clear aligners can’t manage, or they simply know a removable tray would spend more time in their pocket than their mouth. Either way, if any of these sound familiar, fixed braces could be your answer.
The gold standard for moving teeth — quietly modernised
Fixed braces remain the most capable way to straighten teeth — no movement is off the table. The Spark system we fit uses modern low-profile brackets and gentle, efficient wires, so treatment is more comfortable and more discreet than the braces you remember. Once fitted, they work around the clock with nothing required from you but turning up to short adjustment visits.
Fixed braces at Rugby Smiles are £3,950 — adjustment visits included, your exact written plan at your free consultation before anything goes ahead, and 0% finance available to spread the cost. Prefer something invisible? Our Invisalign clear aligners start from £3,250 — and the honest comparison lives on our teeth straightening options page.
The main benefits of fixed braces
Working while you sleep, eat and forget about them
Nothing to take out, lose or remember. Your braces are on the job 24/7 from fitting day to reveal day — progress never depends on your discipline.
No case too complex
Rotations, tilts, bite correction — fixed braces produce the full range of tooth movements, including ones aligners struggle with. If you were declined for aligners, this is usually the answer.
One honest price — £3,950
Written plan before anything starts, adjustment visits included, 0% finance available. No surprises at any point — the same promise we make on every page of this website.
How it works at Rugby Smiles
Dr Ashwin Patel examines your teeth and your bite, and tells you honestly whether fixed braces, Invisalign — or nothing at all — is the right answer. No charge, no obligation, no pressure.
Records, photos and X-rays become a plan with a realistic timeline and the exact £3,950 price in writing, to take home and think about.
Your Spark braces are fitted in a single comfortable appointment. The first week takes some getting used to — we’ll tell you exactly what to expect and send you home with everything you need.
Short, regular visits with Ashwin keep your teeth moving on schedule — and the visible progress between visits is genuinely satisfying.
Braces off, and the smile you’ve been watching arrive is yours. We plan your retainers with you (removable from £150 per arch, or a discreet fixed wire behind the teeth) so it stays that way for good.

Two ways this can go
The braces are off — or nearly — and the crooked smile you spent years half-hiding is straight. It happened quietly in the background of your life, without a single day of tray-discipline, while you got on with everything else.
Nothing dramatic — but crowding tends to tighten with age rather than ease, and eighteen months passes at exactly the same speed either way. If now’s not the time, that’s fine — no lectures when you’re ready. That’s a promise.
