Our Orthodontic Services
Your smile is unique, which means that you need a tailored orthodontic treatment plan that considers your unique needs. Some of the most common orthodontic treatment options that we offer, include:
Metal Braces
Metal braces are a proven and tested solution to treat even the most complex orthodontic problems. Metal braces are durable, cost-effective, and provide predictable results for achieving your orthodontic goals. Orthodontic treatment in Burwood with metal braces typically takes anywhere from 12-24 months depending on the extent of orthodontic treatment that is required.
Invisalign
Clear Braces
Clear braces – otherwise known as ceramic braces – are a discreet alternative to traditional metal braces without the distinctive metallic look. By using a tooth-coloured ceramic material, clear braces blend in with the natural colour of your teeth to provide a more natural, subtle look. Clear braces are an ideal solution for patients that are looking for a discrete and affordable teeth straightening option. Compared to other ‘clear straightening’ options like Invisalign, clear braces offer a more traditional approach to orthodontic treatment that requires shorter appointments.
Invisalign clear aligners are the most popular teeth straightening product on the market. Synonymous with invisible teeth straightening, Invisalign clear aligners are an alternative to traditional metal braces. Invisalign treatment can take anywhere from 6 to 24 months (depending on the extent of malocclusion) and is an ideal solution for those with mild to moderately crooked teeth.
Our Invisalign orthodontic treatment in Burwood includes everything from your initial scan right the way through to ongoing monitoring of progress to ensure your teeth are moving as expected.
Retainers
We design custom fixed and removable retainers that maintain the results of your orthodontic journey. Whether you go for traditional braces or a clear aligner like Invisalign, the role of a retainer is to maintain your smile and to prevent teeth from moving back to their original placement. As we age, teeth have a tendency to crowd or overlap. A retainer is a simple, non-invasive treatment to prevent teeth from moving and combat the natural tendency for teeth to shift or revert back to their original position.
Frequently asked questions
What’s the difference between an orthodontist and a dentist?
Orthodontists are dental practitioners that specialise in correcting bites, occlusion, and straightening teeth to provide a functional and aesthetically pleasing smile. A traditional dentist will typically focus on the teeth and gums for procedures such as scale and cleans and fillings.
How long does orthodontic treatment take?
The length of treatment is completely contingent on the individual and what is needed to straighten the teeth. For modest correction, orthodontic treatment could take as little as 6 months. For more comprehensive alignment and corrections, orthodontic treatment can take an average of 18 to 24 months to complete. Following your initial consultation with our specialist orthodontist Dr. Jessica Yeo, you’ll receive a more accurate outline of treatment options and timelines.
Do you need a referral to see an orthodontist?
No, you do not need a referral to see an orthodontist. In most cases, our patients are referred to us through a local dentist who has noticed specific issues that may require orthodontic treatment. In other cases, our patients find us by searching for a local orthodontist in Burwood to help with braces, aligners, and other corrective orthodontic treatment. However, you are not required to provide a referral from a dentist to book your orthodontic appointment.
Are braces covered by Medicare in Australia?
No, Medicare does not cover braces or any orthodontic treatment in Australia. There are some exceptional circumstances such as when you have an underlying medical condition that may entitle patients to a rebate from Medicare, but by and large this is not the case. You may be covered by private health insurance for your initial consultation and also for orthodontic treatment depending on your level of coverage. At your initial consultation, we can provide you with the information you need to check with your insurer to find out about your entitlements.
