We will be closed from 2pm on Friday 22nd December 2023 and will re-open on Tuesday 2nd January 2024.
If you are an existing client and have an urgent orthodontic issue when we are closed during the festive period, please leave a message on our usual number (01908 398068) and we will endeavour to get back to you as soon as possible.
The SmileLux Team would like to wish all our clients much joy and good health over the festive period.
The professionalism and care I received throughout my invisalign treatment has been second to none and I cannot thank the team enough for everything, especially the end result. I am so happy with my new improved smile!
I used to be really conscious about my smile - and now? I don't think I can stop smiling! I'm really happy with the service provided.
Having a nice smile after treatment has changed my life. I chose SmileLux after the reviews I had seen online, and I'd give an even better one now I'm a patient!
Straighten your teeth without the need for metal brackets and wires. Invisalign® clear aligners are a custom, discreet, removable and convenient option to fit orthodontic treatment into your lifestyle.
Dr Sunil Hirani and the entire SmileLux team are dedicated to providing our patients with the highest quality dental care in a soothing, relaxed environment. We are particularly proud of our friendly and welcoming team - which is committed to excellence and exceptional customer care.
Skip the trip to our practice - track your Invisalign® treatment progress remotely with the Dental Monitoring smartphone app. Just snap weekly selfies to get progress updates on your treatment, and ask us questions through the app any time you want!

You don’t need a referral to go to a dentist or an orthodontist, but sometimes your dentist may give you a referral if they think you need specialist orthodontic care. Likewise, a Specialist Orthodontist may refer you to a dentist if you need general dental work such as a filling or tooth extraction.
