Smile Design Orthodontics

Welcome to Smile Design Orthodontics, located at 47 Station Street, Engadine, Australia. As a trusted dental institution, we specialize in providing top-notch orthodontic care to enhance your smile and overall oral health.

One of the most common orthodontic problems we address is crowding. Crowded teeth not only affect your appearance but also make it difficult to clean properly, leading to gum disease and potential tooth loss. Our skilled team of orthodontists will work closely with you to create a personalized treatment plan that will straighten your teeth and prevent future oral health issues.

Protruded teeth, also known as excessive overjet, can be vulnerable to trauma and often result in excessive gum display when smiling and talking. This condition can also affect speech and prevent the lips from resting together, leading to habitual mouth breathing, snoring, and restless sleep. At Smile Design Orthodontics, we offer effective solutions to correct protrusion and improve both the function and aesthetics of your smile.

Crossbite, which affects the side and back teeth, can cause deviation of the lower jaw when biting together. This condition is often associated with a narrow upper jaw, compromised nasal breathing, snoring, and sleep apnea. Our experienced orthodontists will diagnose and treat crossbites to ensure proper alignment and optimal oral health.

A deep overbite occurs when the upper front teeth overlap excessively with the lower front teeth. This can result in excessive wear of the front teeth and even palatal impingement, where the lower front teeth bite into the gum behind the upper front teeth. Deep bites can also contribute to jaw joint problems such as muscle pain, TMJ pain, headaches, clicking, and locking. At Smile Design Orthodontics, we offer effective treatments to correct deep bites and alleviate associated symptoms.

In some cases, teeth may be missing from birth or lost due to gum disease or decay. With our orthodontic expertise, we can close gaps where teeth are missing using temporary implant anchorage or coordinate space for replacement teeth, often involving dental implants.

Our team at Smile Design Orthodontics also has extensive experience in treating cleft palate patients, providing early orthodontic treatment prior to bone graft surgery.

For more severe malocclusions that cannot be fully corrected with orthodontic treatment alone, we collaborate with our Maxillo-Facial Surgery colleagues to coordinate orthodontic treatment with orthognathic (jaw) surgery. This comprehensive approach ensures optimal results for patients with severe overjet, open bite, and crossbite caused by an imbalance between upper and lower jaw development or position.

At Smile Design Orthodontics, we are committed to providing exceptional orthodontic care to our patients in Engadine and beyond. Our team is dedicated to helping you achieve a healthy, beautiful smile that boosts your confidence and improves your overall oral health.
