A beautiful smile and straight teeth are the dream of every teenager. If you or your kids are looking for a great smile, we can help…

We all want a great smile!

It might seem as if a new classmate comes to school every day with braces on their teeth. Orthodontics for teenagers is growing in popularity and more and more children and young adults are enjoying the health and confidence benefits a straighter smile can bring.

With advancements in orthodontic appliances including more discrete and nearly invisible choices such as Invisalign clear aligners, there’s never been a better time to straighten your or your kids’ teeth. Join the millions of people who’ve embraced their future with a smile.

COMMON ORTHODONTIC CONDITIONS FOR TEENS & KIDS

There are many different types of orthodontic conditions and problems. During your initial meeting with one of our Orthodontists, we will carry out a thorough examination to understand what conditions may be affecting your smile and from this, we can plan options to address some or all. You can learn more about some of the most common orthodontic conditions here…

Open Bite

Open bite often occurs when some teeth are unable to make physical contact with the opposing teeth for a proper bite.

Deep Bite / Overbite

Deep bite or overbite occurs when the upper teeth bite over the lower teeth.

Gapped Teeth

Gaps between teeth can occur with abnormal continued growth of the jawbone. Missing teeth can also cause the surrounding teeth to shift due to extra space, creating gaps in your teeth.

Overly Crowded

Teeth crowding occurs when there is simply a lack of room within your jaw for all of your teeth to fit normally.

Underbite

Underbite can occur when the lower teeth protrude past the front teeth.

Crossbite

Crossbite can occur when the upper and lower jaws are both misaligned.

Invisalign Teen

Invisalign Teen can treat mild to severe orthodontic issues including underbite, overbite, overcrowding and gaps between teeth. With Invisalign treatment, you can straighten your teeth without brackets and wires getting in the way, leaving you free to enjoy the things that make these the best time of your life.

Invisalign Teen – made to move!

Clearly visible - or not

Clear aligners are a nearly invisible treatment option that might be suitable for you – so people may not even notice you are wearing them while they’re straightening their teeth.

However, with traditional metal braces, there is a growing trend towards brightly coloured options – many teens now actually choose to make a statement and wear their brace with pride!

Straighter smile, more confident you

Because straighter teeth can give you a confident smile and are easier to clean, orthodontic treatment could have a positive impact on your self-esteem and overall dental health.

Teeth straightening for younger patients

Orthodontic treatment is suitable for children as young as 8 years and metal braces remain a great option for our younger patients.  They are less expensive than ceramic or custom metal brackets and have evolved over the years to become far more comfortable to wear.

Children often like to customise their braces with different colours, adding a little fun and sparkle!
