Braces and Orthodontics in Melbourne CBD
Today’s orthodontic designs are more discreet than ever, making them appropriate for adults and children alike. This means the traditional teeth straightening process with fixed braces now is much more enjoyable than previously. We offer both traditional metal and ceramic braces, tailored to the individual. In most cases, we will combine your orthodontic monitoring appointments with hygiene maintenance visits, limiting the number of appointments required. Children enjoy the multi-coloured elastics they can choose to wear, but if you prefer a more low-profile appearance, ceramic braces are an excellent choice.
What Are the Benefits of Braces?
Addressing tooth alignment is more than managing the appearance of your teeth. By guiding jawbone development, we can reduce the need for complex orthodontic treatment later in life. Improved tooth positioning improves your bite and improves oral wellness by decreasing the risk of decay and gum disease.
Why Choose Collins Street Dental for your orthodontic treatment?
Collins Street Dental’s holistic approach to wellness encompasses all aspects of your health, not just your teeth. We frequently observe that oral anatomy and tooth crowding ties back to breathing issues and airway blockage. By identifying and managing the causes with medical practitioners and improving bite alignment, we can also help improve breathing which has a positive affect on sleep and brain oxygenation. In turn, with breathing issues being addressed, children tend to focus better at school and have better energy levels.
