Orthodontic treatment
If your adult teeth have grown crooked or oddly positioned, or if your top and
bottom teeth don't meet correctly when you bite together, you'll benefit from orthodontic
treatment to reposition them into a straight, healthy and comfortable smile. There are a variety of treatment approaches and the braces can even be invisible.
Once we have finalised your treatment plan, which may take more than one visit,
we will arrange to fit your customized appliance to help guide your teeth into the
correct position. We will also show you how to look after your
teeth and appliance during treatment, carefully advise you what to expect and
answer any further questions you may have. You will then have to visit us regularly
(usually every 7 to 8 weeks) to have your appliance adjusted. Teeth are moved
slowly and steadily into their correct position, and treatment typically takes several
months, although our patients are constantly amazed how quickly improvements
can be seen.
