What Are the Different Ways That I Can Straighten My Teeth?

This is a complex question to answer as there numerous orthodontic options out there today and the type of orthodontic option chosen depends upon:

The severity of the bite problem or the malalignment of the teeth

On the philosophy that the dentist holds about how teeth can be moved and when is the appropriate time to treat and

upon the age of the child as well, and as a factor that may affect compliance for treatment.

So in our practice, we have a number of options that we offer for orthodontic treatment or to fix crooked teeth.

The first option that we offer is something called Myobrace and Myobrace is a myofunctional orthodontic approach that helps to not only alleviate or reduce the crowding or problems with crooked teeth, but it, at the same time, works on creating a more balanced muscle profile for the individual and also promoting nasal breathing for better health.

The second option that we have for children that don’t want to go through the Myobrace program is early intervention orthodontics. So for the more severe cases where teeth are really malaligned or are impacting the psychology of the child, we do have the option of doing braces at an earlier age. And that just sets the stage for a better outcome in a later stage of orthodontics. Or ideally fixes the problem within that first phase of treatment.

The third option that we have is just the standard orthodontics that children or teenagers usually have just to correct any malalignment of the teeth.

The fourth option that we offer is probably one of our most popular options and something that we are very good at, at My dentist: Invisalign. Invisalign is basically clear aligners that we can use to straighten up the teeth. Invisalign works by utilising a series of clear aligners that are designed on a digital platform and printed using the highest quality materials and technology. With each aligner worn the patient is getting closer and closer to their ideal smile.

In our practice, we have a number of offers around Invisalign, whether it be our seasonal $500 off an Invisalign treatment. Or occasionally we include teeth whitening within the Invisalign treatment free of charge.
