Truro Ranked Among UK Areas with Lowest Demand for Teeth Straightening

Truro has been ranked among the top UK areas with the lowest demand for teeth straightening treatments, according to Smile White’s Great British Teeth Index 2025.

Low demand in Truro

The report shows that only 1 in every 3,839 residents sought clear aligner treatment over the past year. Smile White says this points to strong natural dental alignment across the city, meaning fewer people feel the need for orthodontic work.

Who is seeking treatment?

The data shows a clear gender split. Women make up the majority of patients across every case type.

• Complex cases are 73 percent female, with an average age of 30

• Moderate cases are 82 percent female, averaging 27.1 years old

• Mild cases were logged only among women, averaging 22.1 years old

The findings suggest that younger women tend to seek early alignment treatment, while slightly older women account for most of the complex cases.

Why Truro ranks so highly

Smile White highlights that low demand per head indicates most people in Truro have naturally well aligned teeth, with treatment mainly used for specific or more advanced alignment issues.

What Smile White says

“These findings show how demand for teeth straightening treatments varies across the UK,” commented Smile White Cosmetic Dentist, Bilal Ahmed. “While major cities are seeing a surge in complex cases, many smaller and more remote towns report far fewer alignment issues. Our goal is to make high-quality treatment accessible to everyone, no matter where they live.”
