Orthodontic Treatment in Roseville, NSW

In today’s hectic world of selfies and social media, a straight, beautiful smile can help you feel confident about your interactions with other people.

Besides a lovely smile, having straight teeth has many dental health advantages. Properly aligned teeth are easier to brush and floss correctly, reducing your chances of developing common dental problems like tooth decay, cavities, and gum disease.

When your bite is correctly aligned, it minimises your risk of developing jaw joint (TMJ) discomfort and disorders. You can avoid the symptoms associated with temporomandibular disorder (TMD), like pain when chewing, popping or clicking of the jaw joint, jaw locking open or closed, and painful headaches or migraines.

Traditional Braces in Roseville Offer Excellent Tooth and Bite Alignment

Traditional brackets and wires are a tried, true, and trusted method for aligning teeth and properly correcting bites. Braces are often best for achieving your desired results, and they are the treatment Dr. Yang would recommend for patients with more complex bite concerns.

At Roseville Dental and Implants, Dr. Yang’s extensive skills and training allow her to provide comprehensive orthodontic treatment using traditional braces and clear aligners. During an orthodontic evaluation, she can help determine which option is best for your smile. She’ll use photos, x-rays, and a thorough exam to help you decide if traditional braces or clear aligners will deliver the best results for your specific needs.

If you have complicated bite concerns, brackets and wires will provide the best results. You won’t have to worry about removing them for meals or cleaning your teeth like you would clear aligners, and there’s no chance of misplacing them since they’re attached to your teeth.

When you’re compliant about your diet and home care during treatment with braces, you can expect to finish your treatment on time, and the results of your beautiful smile and functional bite will be worth the time you spent wearing brackets and wires.

Keeping your teeth clean and plaque-free during your orthodontic treatment is the key to success, and we’ll show you how to properly brush and floss around your brackets and wires to ensure your teeth remain healthy during your orthodontic treatment.

There are also some foods to avoid to help keep your braces intact, such as sticky, hard, or chewy items. Don’t bite directly into hard items like crusty bread, carrots, or apples to prevent knocking a bracket off your teeth. Instead, cut hard foods into bite-sized pieces that are easier to enjoy.
