The gold standard for your child is an orthodontic consultation before age 8Orthodontics

I want to know more about Orthodontics, please!

You may have heard about metal braces and clear aligners but what does it all mean?

Orthodontic treatment is a part of dentistry that focuses on the alignment of the teeth, improving your smile and oral health.

Orthodontics can improve your smile, confidence, bite, speech, breathing and chewing.

What are my orthodontic options?

1

My child is under 12 years old

Early Treatment

Your aim is to create harmonious top and bottom jaw growth with space for the teeth to grow in straight and avoid tooth extractions or severe issues. We refer to our specialist colleagues for appropriate care.

2

My Teenager is 13+ years old

Phase 2 Treatment

Your aim once all the adult teeth are present is to finalise straight teeth and a beautiful smile. We use fixed metal braces or even clear aligners to improve patients smiles.

3

I am an adult 18+

Adult Braces

Your aim as an adult could be to receive comprehensive care, or just to straighten the front teeth. Adult orthodontics is often combined with veneers, whitening, and implants for cosmetic dentistry in smile makeovers. We can provide a one-stop dentist clinic for these advanced procedures.

I don’t want metal braces

Clear Aligners

Angelalign, Invisalign or Spark clear aligners are an almost invisible alternative to traditional metal braces while still providing excellent results. Clear aligners can be used for teenagers or adults.

Orthodontic treatment varies based on the individualised treatment plans.

An average fee for Teen Braces treatment is $7500. 

The average fee for Adult treatments is $8000.

The length of treatment time depends on the individual issues and individual treatment plan that is chosen. An average range is between 12 to 24 months. It can be as little as 6 months, or even longer than 2 years for complex cases.

Orthodontic treatment can cause some mild discomfort especially in the first few days after getting braces. However with soft foods, excellent oral hygiene compliance, recovery and adaptation is rapid. Very occasionally Panadol is required for relief of symptoms.

Our philosophy is primarily non-extraction whenever possible due to the numerous benefits including the overall wellness of the facial function and fullness of the smile.

Our patients preferring or requiring multiple tooth extractions are predominantly referred for specialist orthodontic care.

The correct timing of orthodontic treatment to coincide with growth of the child can avoid tooth extractions, avoid surgery, reduce treatment time and costs, while improving long term results.

The gold standard of care is an orthodontic consultation before age 8.

It is never too late, usually sooner equals more possibilities and better results.
