Orthodontics

Straight teeth do more than improve your smile—they contribute to a healthy bite, make cleaning easier, improve breathing, and support long-term oral health.

At Waratah Dental, we offer a full range of orthodontic solutions for children, teens, and adults, including traditional braces, clear aligners (like Invisalign®), and early intervention plates for growing smiles.

Traditional Braces

Traditional braces are one of the most effective and time-tested options for correcting bite issues and straightening teeth. They use metal brackets bonded to the front of each tooth, connected by a thin wire and small elastic bands.

Over time, gentle pressure from the wire gradually moves the teeth into their correct positions. Regular adjustments with your dentist or orthodontist guide this process.

Benefits of traditional braces:

  • Reliable results—even for complex cases
  • Suitable for patients of all ages
  • Fun customisation with coloured bands
  • Often more cost-effective than clear aligners

Today’s brackets are smaller, sleeker, and more comfortable—making braces a trusted and proven way to achieve a straight, healthy smile.

Invisalign® – Clear Aligners

Invisalign is a modern orthodontic treatment that uses a series of clear, removable aligners to gradually straighten your teeth. Made with advanced 3D imaging, each aligner is custom-fit and designed to move your teeth gently and precisely.

Why patients love Invisalign:

  • Virtually invisible – discreet and subtle
  • Removable – eat, brush, and floss with ease
  • Comfortable – no metal brackets or wires

You’ll wear each set of aligners for 1–2 weeks, changing to the next in the series as your teeth move. Regular check-ins with Dr Gabe or Dr Kylie ensure your treatment stays on track.

Invisalign is ideal for teens and adults who want a straighter smile without the look of traditional braces.
