Orthodontics in Chatswood: Straighten Your Smile with Personalised, Professional Care

Orthodontics in Chatswood focuses on correcting bite issues and aligning teeth to create a straighter, healthier, and more confident smile. At our Chatswood dental clinic, patients receive professional orthodontic care from an experienced orthodontist dedicated to delivering the best results through tailored treatment plans.

What Is Orthodontics?

Orthodontics is a specialised area of dentistry that focuses on correcting the position of teeth and jaws. Using braces, aligners, or other orthodontic appliances, we gently move teeth into the right position to improve bite function, appearance, and dental health.

 

Orthodontic Concerns We Treat

Our orthodontist in Chatswood can help with a wide range of dental alignment issues, including:

  • Crooked or crowded teeth
  • Overlapped or twisted teeth
  • Gaps between teeth
  • Overbite, underbite, crossbite, or open bite
  • Misaligned jaw positioning
  • Teeth that have shifted after losing your retainer

If you’re noticing difficulty cleaning certain teeth, issues with biting or chewing, or simply want a straighter, more confident smile, orthodontic treatment may be right for you.

Orthodontic Treatments We Offer in Chatswood

We provide a full range of orthodontic treatments to suit different needs, lifestyles, and preferences. Our orthodontist will help you choose the best option:

  1. Traditional Braces

Strong, reliable, and effective for complex orthodontic cases. Modern braces are smaller, more comfortable, and more discreet than ever before.

  1. Clear Aligners

Nearly invisible aligner trays designed for teens and adults who want a subtle, removable option. Clear aligners gently move teeth into the right position without metal brackets or wires.

  1. Removable Retainers

Used after active treatment to maintain the new alignment and prevent teeth from shifting back.

Whether you prefer braces or aligners, you will receive a personalised treatment plan with regular monitoring to ensure predictable and effective results.

General FAQs

At what age should I see an orthodontist?

Children should have their first orthodontic visit by age 7, as early assessment allows the orthodontist to identify potential issues while the jaw is still developing.

You should also consult an orthodontist at any age if you notice crooked, crowded, or misaligned teeth. At our Chatswood dental clinic, we provide expert guidance for both children and adults to ensure timely and effective orthodontic care.

How long does orthodontic treatment take?

Orthodontic treatment usually takes between 12 and 36 months, depending on the complexity of your case, your age, and the type of treatment used. Mild cases may take as little as six months, while more complex issues can take over three years.

At our Chatswood dental clinic, we provide personalized treatment plans to help patients achieve a straight, healthy smile in the optimal timeframe.

Do braces or aligners hurt?

Both braces and clear aligners can cause mild, temporary discomfort, especially in the first few days or after adjustments. Traditional braces may irritate the mouth due to brackets and wires, while aligners usually create a gentle pressure as your teeth shift.

At our Chatswood dental clinic, we guide patients on how to manage discomfort and ensure orthodontic treatment is as comfortable as possible.

Can adults get braces or clear aligners?

Yes, adults can get braces or clear aligners as long as their teeth and gums are healthy. Modern orthodontic options include traditional metal braces, ceramic braces, and nearly invisible clear aligners.

Many adults in Chatswood are choosing orthodontic treatment to improve their smile and oral health, and our dental clinic provides personalized solutions for patients of all ages.

How do I care for my teeth with braces or aligners?

Brush your teeth after every meal and at least twice a day with a soft-bristled toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste. Use interdental brushes or floss threaders to clean around braces. For aligners, rinse with lukewarm water and gently brush—avoid hot water or toothpaste.

Regular dental check-ups at our Chatswood clinic and avoiding hard, sticky, or sugary foods will help keep your teeth healthy and protect your orthodontic appliances.
