orthodontic dental treatment recommendation

I have been reading a few horror stories about the wowcher/groupon 6 month smile deals.
I am looking to improve my teeth by straightening them slightly (they are not too bad) and then having them whitened but guess its best to have them fixed first.
I am not sure which options are available e.g. to go veneers, cosmetic treatment or clear brace style.
I would appreciate recommendations for consultation around South East London or Central London areas.

You could ask your general dentist for recommendations for an orthodontist, and to refer you.
Sometimes whitening first cheers things up enough to make you feel the ortho is unnecessary. Your general dentist should be able to advise you on that, and carry out the whitening.How to find a dentist.
1. Get recommendations from friends/family/neighbours/etc.
2. Once you have a short-list, VISIT the practices - dont just phone. Go on the pretext of getting a Practice Leaflet.
3. Assess the helpfulness of the staff and the level of the facilities.
4. Only book initial appointment when you find a place you are happy with.0 -

Maybe because clear braces are a bit over-hyped and very expensive for what they are. Does he only have one recommendation though? Seems a bit limited?How to find a dentist.
