Specialist orthodontic care for children, teens, and adults at About Smiles
Orthodontics is a specialised field of dentistry focused on diagnosing, preventing, and correcting misaligned teeth and jaw issues. Whether it’s braces for teens or clear aligners for adults, orthodontic treatments improve dental function, enhance facial aesthetics, and create straighter, healthier smiles. At About Smiles, our experienced orthodontists use advanced technology to deliver precise, comfortable, and effective results for patients of all ages.
Orthodontic care can address more than just tooth alignment. Some potential areas where treatment may assist include:
Supporting oral hygiene routines by making teeth easier to clean.
Improving bite alignment, which may assist with chewing and speech.
Reducing uneven wear on teeth caused by misalignment.
Crowding: Teeth that overlap due to limited space.
Spacing: Gaps between teeth caused by growth patterns or tooth loss.
Overbite: Upper teeth extend too far forward.
Underbite: Lower teeth protrude past the upper teeth.
Crossbite: Misalignment where lower teeth sit outside the upper teeth.
Open Bite: A gap between upper and lower teeth when the jaw is closed.
Children’s Orthodontics: Orthodontic assessment may be recommended while the jaw is still developing, often during the early school years. Possible treatment approaches can include:
Expanders: Used to widen the arch of the jaw in some cases.
Partial Braces: May be considered for minor alignment issues.
Plates: Can be used to influence jaw or bite development during growth.
Adult Orthodontics: Adults may also benefit from orthodontic treatment, depending on their needs. Options include:
Traditional Braces: May be recommended for more complex alignment issues.
Clear Aligners: Removable appliances, such as Invisalign, which may be suitable for mild to moderate alignment concerns.
At About Smiles, we prioritise personalised care, comfort, and efficiency. Our orthodontic treatments are tailored to your unique needs and goals, supported by advanced technology for precise results. Using digital scanners, we ensure accurate treatment planning, while self-ligating braces reduce discomfort and shorten treatment times. Whether it’s early intervention for children or discreet solutions for adults, our skilled orthodontists are dedicated to creating beautiful, healthy smiles.
