Combined Orthodontic & Restorative Care

About

Some patients are born with missing teeth (hypodontia) or have gaps that need careful management. These cases benefit from combined orthodontic and restorative treatment, planned together with restorative and implant colleagues to achieve the best long-term function and appearance. This is a particular focus of Olivia's consultant work at Great Ormond Street Hospital.

Who is it for?

Children and adults with congenitally missing teeth, or complex cases where orthodontics and restorative dentistry need to work together.

What to expect

Treatment begins with careful, multidisciplinary planning. Orthodontics is used to open or close spaces to prepare for the ideal long-term solution — which may involve restorative work such as bridges or implants provided by specialist colleagues. Olivia coordinates this planning so every stage fits together.
