A specialist orthodontist is a dentist who has undergone additional training to become registered as a specialist orthodontist in Australia. Specialist orthodontists have more focused knowledge and are better equipped to handle complex cases. Our experienced team consists entirely of registered specialist orthodontists.

We recommend bringing your child for a checkup by the age of seven. At this point, your child will likely have a mix of adult and baby teeth. Our team can detect and address common childhood problems such as crowding and teeth spacing issues before they appear.

Teeth move at different rates and everyone is different. For example, cases of minor cosmetic adjustments may take only three to six months. More complex cases can take more than a year to correct. We can give you an estimate of your treatment time at a free no-obligation consultation. Book yours today!

Orthodontic treatments can address a wide range of problems including crowding, gaps, protruding teeth, bite alignment issues and more. To find out which orthodontic treatment could help you, schedule a consultation with one of our orthodontists.

Getting braces placed does not hurt, at all. You may experience some discomfort afterwards as your teeth adjust to the pressure from your orthodontic appliance. This discomfort is very easy to manage with cold compresses and pain-relieving medication.

We offer both Invisalign® and traditional metal braces at our practices. One of our experienced doctors will assess your orthodontic needs and recommend the treatment that is right for you. Fortunately, both treatments cost the same at Ocean Orthodontics so you will not have to choose between the two based on price.

Yes, you can absolutely still play sports. One of the best things about Invisalign® is that it will not interfere with your daily activities. However, Invisalign® is not the same thing as a mouthguard. We recommend wearing a mouthguard to protect your teeth in contact sports and we can make you a custom mouthguard to wear in place of Invisalign® aligners when you play sports.

We understand that dental anxiety is a very real issue. We take your concerns seriously because we have all been dental patients ourselves, at some point. Rest assured that we truly care about you and will do our very best to create a positive and relaxing environment. We want you to feel comfortable getting the orthodontic treatment you need without letting fear hold you back. Please contact us to let us know about your situation and we will guide you on the next steps to take.
