Treatment Benefits

A more attractive smile is just one of the many benefits of orthodontics. Orthodontics with Mudgee Ortho may also:

  • Increase confidence and self-esteem
  • Improve oral health and the ability to clean the teeth
  • Reduce the risk of injury or fracture to protruded front teeth
  • Aid in optimizing other dental treatment
  • Improve function of the teeth
  • Increase airway space for improved breathing
  • Improve long term health of teeth and gums
Traditional Braces

Braces

Orthodontic treatment with braces (either traditional or ceramic) is the most popular way to achieve a beautiful healthy smile. A combination of brackets positioned carefully on your teeth and specially formed wires provides constant gentle forces that move the teeth into the correct position over the course of treatment. We have different types of braces to suit your look and your lifestyle. Your braces can be:

  • Bold, with changeable colours
  • Subtle, and tooth coloured
  • Hidden, behind your teeth

Orthodontic treatment times vary based on the growth of the patient’s mouth and the individual orthodontic case. With use of the latest technology, treatment times are faster than ever before. Ask Dr. Derek and our team about all the options available for you and how easily you can start on the road to a beautiful smile.

Invisalign

Invisalign

Invisalign is the clear alternative to traditional braces. Invisalign uses 3D computer models of your teeth and a treatment plan from Dr Derek, to create a series of clear plastic trays, or aligners, that fit over your teeth. Over time, these invisible aligners gently move the teeth until they are in the correct position. Dr. Derek uses Invisalign for both adults and teens. Invisalign and Invisalign Teen are great solutions for people who want a comfortable and aesthetic way to straighten their teeth.

Orthodontic Plates

Plates

An orthodontic plate is a removable appliance worn to correct dental problems. Plates are commonly used for the early correction of bite problems such as overbite, tooth alignment or jaw expansion.  Patients can choose the colour and design of their plates as they desire.
