Braces and clear-aligner options
What Are Dental Braces?
Dental braces are orthodontic appliances designed to gradually move teeth into better alignment. Traditional braces use brackets and archwires that are adjusted periodically to guide tooth movement.
Depending on your teeth and bite, your orthodontist may also discuss less visible options such as ceramic braces, lingual braces or clear aligners.
Important: The right treatment depends on your dental and orthodontic needs. An in-person examination is needed before choosing a treatment option.
When Might Braces Help?
Start With a Personalised Orthodontic Consultation
At your initial appointment, our orthodontic team will assess your teeth, bite and overall dental health. We’ll discuss your concerns, treatment goals and suitable options.
Where appropriate, diagnostic records such as photographs or X-rays may be recommended to support treatment planning.
Types of Braces & Clear Aligners
Traditional Metal Braces
A reliable orthodontic option using metal brackets and wires to guide teeth into improved alignment over time.
Ceramic Braces
Similar to traditional braces, but with tooth-coloured or clear brackets for a more discreet appearance.
Lingual Braces
Braces positioned on the back surface of the teeth, making the appliance much less visible from the front.
Clear Aligners
Removable, custom-made trays that apply controlled pressure to move teeth gradually. Suitability varies by case.
Self-Ligating Braces
Brackets that use a built-in clip mechanism to hold the archwire. Your orthodontist can advise whether they suit your case.
Individual Treatment Planning
Every orthodontic case is different, so treatment is planned around your bite, alignment, oral health and desired outcome.
Benefits of Correcting Tooth Alignment
Aligning teeth can improve the appearance of your smile and help create a more balanced look.
Better-aligned teeth may be easier to brush and floss effectively, supporting long-term oral hygiene.
A smile you feel comfortable sharing can positively influence confidence in everyday situations.
Orthodontic treatment can address certain bite problems and improve how the teeth meet during chewing.
Different appliance options allow your orthodontist to tailor treatment to your needs and preferences.
After active treatment, retainers and follow-up care help maintain the alignment achieved.
