Orthodontic Solutions in St Kilda
Do you have crooked or misaligned teeth that look unattractive and are hard to keep clean? Are you interested in trying invisible orthodontics and other corrective measures? At Chapel Gate Dental, we understand that crooked teeth that go untreated can cause a range of issues including stress on chewing muscles, TMJ syndrome, headaches, and low self-esteem. Fortunately, we offer a number of orthodontic solutions to correct teeth that are positioned improperly. Our team of highly skilled and experienced dentists will examine your teeth and determine the best orthodontic treatment plan for you that may include anything from invisible braces through to therapeutic exercises.
When Should You Get Orthodontics?
We recommend to our patients that they consider dental braces or myofunctional therapy for the following conditions:
- Overbite – upper front teeth lying too far forward
- Underbite – lower teeth lying too far forward
- Crossbite – upper and lower teeth fail to meet correctly
- Open bite – upper and lower teeth unable to make physical contact
- Spacing – spaces or gaps between the teeth
- Misplaced midline – centre of upper and lower teeth does not line-up
When & How Do Orthodontic Braces Work?
There are different types of orthodontic braces and myobrace treatment options available to retrain muscles, realign teeth and correct jaws issues. They all work by applying gentle pressure on the jaws and teeth. Based on the severity of the problem, our dentists will determine an approach based on your individual circumstances to get the best results. You can rely on us to develop a customised Invisalign treatment plan or suggest alternatives to braces to improve the structure, function and health of your jaws and teeth.
What Do We Recommend?
At Chapel Gate Dental, we recommend Invisalign braces or myofunctional orthodontic treatment for patients who want to correct crooked and misaligned teeth.
- Myobrace: Myobrace orthodontics involves correcting jaw, muscles and teeth by wearing an appliance overnight and for a short time during the day. With a rigid core and stretchy outer area, myobrace for adults is easy and convenient to use.
- Truline: This is a less-noticeable, custom-designed plastic tray that is an alternative to traditional metal braces. This device is used to straighten crowded or crooked teeth and to close unsightly gaps between teeth.
Our Invisalign dental braces and myofunctional orthodontics aren’t just designed to enhance your appearance, but also boost your self-image, self-esteem and overall oral health. Call us now on (03) 9531 3742 and let us start planning a dental solution that will last a lifetime.
