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.
Straightening your teeth offers more than just a beautiful smile. Key benefits include:
Improved Oral Health: Straight teeth are easier to clean, reducing the risk of cavities and gum disease.
Better Functionality: Proper alignment improves chewing, speaking, and jaw function.
Reduced Wear and Tear: Prevents uneven pressure on teeth, helping maintain their structure.
Boosted Confidence: A straight smile enhances your appearance and self-esteem.
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: The ideal time for orthodontic evaluation is between the ages of 7 and 10, while the jaw is still developing. Early treatment options may include:
Expanders: Create space for adult teeth to align naturally.
Partial Braces: Address minor alignment issues early.
Plates: Correct jaw and bite positioning during growth.
Adult Orthodontics: We offer modern orthodontic solutions designed to suit adult lifestyles:
Traditional Braces: Effective for correcting complex misalignments, now with advanced designs for greater comfort and efficiency.
Clear Aligners: Discreet and removable options like Invisalign, perfect for mild to moderate alignment issues.
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.
