Dr Priya Nair

BDS, MSc Orthodontics, MOrth RCS (Edin), GDC-registered specialist orthodontist

Priya is a specialist orthodontist on the GDC specialist list, which means that when aligners are the right answer she plans them properly — not from a template. Straightening teeth before restoring them often means we can do less to them afterwards, and keep more of your own tooth.

She runs Lumara’s clear-aligner programme and works closely with Elise on cases that combine alignment with bonding or veneers, so the movement and the finish are planned as one design rather than two treatments.

Priya believes the best orthodontics is the kind nobody notices you had. She is a keen open-water swimmer, which she insists is unrelated.
