Orthodontics is a special area of dentistry that deals with the diagnosis, prevention and correction of malocclusion. The term describes the malposition of teeth and jaws. Malocclusion represents the abnormal alignment of the teeth and how the upper and lower teeth fit together.
At Gold Coast Holistic Dental Care, we offer a variety of orthodontic treatments designed to meet the unique needs of patients of all ages. Our expert team is dedicated to providing personalised care to help you achieve a healthy, beautiful smile.
Orthodontics is a specialised branch of dentistry focused on diagnosing, preventing, and correcting misalignments of the teeth and jaws. Our orthodontic treatments address a range of issues, from minor cosmetic adjustments to more complex corrections.
Myofunctional orthodontics is a treatment approach specifically designed for children aged 4 to 10. This early intervention method aims to correct functional issues such as thumb sucking, tongue thrusting, and improper swallowing patterns. By addressing these habits early, we can guide the proper development of the teeth and jaws, potentially reducing the need for more extensive treatment later on.
Traditional braces remain a highly effective solution for patients aged 12 and above. They can correct a wide range of malocclusions and misalignments. Technological advances make today's braces more comfortable and aesthetically pleasing than ever. Post-treatment, patients typically wear retainers to maintain their newly aligned smile.
For those seeking a more discreet option, clear aligners like Invisalign© offer an excellent alternative to traditional braces. These custom-made, removable aligners are ideal for adult patients who want to straighten their teeth without the noticeable appearance of metal braces. Clear aligners provide the flexibility to maintain oral hygiene easily and fit seamlessly into your lifestyle.
Selecting the most suitable orthodontic treatment involves considering several factors, including patient compliance, age, and cosmetic preferences. Our experienced dentists at Gold Coast Holistic Dental Care are here to help you navigate these options and choose the treatment that best fits your needs.
In addition to orthodontic treatments, we offer a wide range of holistic dental services to ensure oral health. These include amalgam filling removal, porcelain crowns, and sleep apnea therapy, all of which are focused on your well-being.
