Straighten up and smile with Invisible Braces
Orthodontics is the specialty of dentistry focused on treating irregularities of teeth and faces. Straight teeth help an individual to effectively bite, chew and speak. Properly aligned teeth and jaws can prevent physical health problems occurring in the future as well as contributing to healthy teeth and gums now.
Beneficial to both adults and children alike; Orthodontics treatment may be used to treat: crowded or crooked teeth, spaces between their teeth or misaligned teeth and jaws. You may also be surprised to learn that straight teeth are less prone to decay, gum disease and injury. When teeth are properly aligned, they are easier to clean - enabling decay causing plaque to be removed.
The best age for children to begin Orthodontic treatment varies depending on their individual needs. However, the Australian Association of Orthodontists recommends that children have an evaluation by 7 years of age. Today, more and more adults are also choosing to undergo treatment, making up more than 25% of all orthodontic patients.
