Smile Design Orthodontics

Welcome to Smile Design Orthodontics, located at The Avenue, 11 in Hurstville, Australia. As a leading dental institution, we specialize in orthodontic treatments that enhance both your appearance and oral health.

One common orthodontic issue we address is crowding. Crowded teeth not only affect your confidence but also make it difficult to clean properly, leading to gum disease, gum recession, and even tooth loss. Our expert team can help alleviate these concerns and restore your smile to its full potential.

Another common problem we tackle is protruded teeth, also known as excessive overjet. This condition not only puts your teeth at risk of trauma but can also cause excessive gum display when smiling and talking. Speech can be affected, and protrusion may result in habitual mouth breathing, snoring, and restless sleep. At Smile Design Orthodontics, we can address these issues and help you achieve a healthier, more comfortable smile.

Cross bites, which occur when the side and back teeth are misaligned, are also a focus of our expertise. This condition can affect one or both sides and is often associated with a narrow upper jaw. In some cases, compromised nasal breathing, snoring, and sleep apnea may also be present. Our skilled team can diagnose and treat these cross bites, improving your jaw alignment and overall oral health.

A deep overbite, where the upper front teeth significantly overlap the lower front teeth, can cause excessive wear and even palatal impingement of the lower teeth. This condition can lead to jaw joint problems, including muscle pain, TMJ pain, headaches, clicking, and locking. At Smile Design Orthodontics, we can address deep bites and alleviate related symptoms, improving your oral health and overall well-being.

Missing teeth, whether congenitally or due to gum disease or decay, can also be effectively treated through orthodontic interventions. We can close spaces where teeth are missing, often utilizing temporary implant anchorage (TADs), or coordinate space for replacement teeth, such as dental implants. Our team has extensive experience in these procedures and can help you achieve a complete and beautiful smile.

In addition to our comprehensive orthodontic services, we also specialize in treating cleft palate patients. We offer early orthodontic treatment prior to bone graft surgery, ensuring the best possible outcome for our patients.

For more severe malocclusions that cannot be corrected solely through orthodontic treatment, we work closely with our Maxillo-Facial Surgery colleagues to coordinate orthognathic (jaw) surgery. This collaborative approach allows us to address imbalances between upper and lower jaw development or position, effectively correcting severe overjet, open bites, and cross bites.

At Smile Design Orthodontics, we are dedicated to providing top-quality care and exceptional results. Contact us today to schedule a consultation and take the first step towards your dream smile.
