Schedule your Orthodontic Consultation with our team at The Smile Designer Dental Studio, located in Melbourne’s Inner North. Our team will guide you through your options, costs and the process of how you can achieve that smile you want.
An assessment is required to determine whether orthodontic treatment is appropriate for you. This may include:

Not all treatment options are suitable for every patient, and outcomes can vary.
What are my options?
What are the options for straightening teeth?
There are several approaches to orthodontic treatment. The most suitable option depends on your dental condition, treatment goals, and clinical assessment.
Clear aligners
Clear aligners are removable trays designed to gradually move teeth over time. They are typically worn for most of the day and removed for eating and oral hygiene. A number of systems are available including Invisalign.
Traditional braces
Fixed braces may be recommended in cases where more complex tooth movements or bite correction are required. Treatment recommendations vary depending on the individual, and in some cases may involve additional procedures as part of overall care.
Ceramic or lingual braces
These options may be considered for patients seeking a less visible alternative to traditional braces. Suitability depends on the position of the teeth and treatment requirements.
What are the Costs involved?
The cost of orthodontic treatment in Melbourne varies depending on the complexity and duration of care. Following your consultation, you will be provided with a personalised treatment plan outlining recommended options and associated fees.
Do I need to get my teeth checked and cleaned before I start any Orthodontic Treatment?
Maintaining good oral health is an important part of orthodontic care. Your dentist may recommend a comprehensive examination and professional cleaning before starting treatment to ensure any underlying issues are addressed.
Regular dental check-ups and hygiene visits are also important throughout treatment.
If you are considering teeth straightening, booking a consultation at the smile designer in Preston can help you understand which options may be appropriate for your individual circumstances.
