Conditions Orthodontics Treat

The implementation of orthodontics can help to correct a wide array of dental issues. These include:

• Overbites: Where the lower jaw is too far behind the upper jaw. 
• Underbites: Where the teeth of the lower jaw are too far forward and the teeth of the upper jaw are too far back.
• Crowding: When there are excessive teeth in a particular dental ridge
• Spacing & gaps: When there are missing teeth or an excessive space between them
• Clenching & grinding of teeth: Which can result in tooth wear & weakening

By implementing orthodontics, you can also prevent issues from occurring which may seriously undermine your oral health – including certain gum diseases, malocclusions and tooth loss. By preventing tooth misalignment via orthodontics, you can also better ensure your teeth are easy to clean and floss.

Our Aligners

At Nelson Bay Dental, we prescribe two aligner systems to help optimally direct the development of your teeth.

Inman Aligners

These streamlined, removable systems are designed to align front teeth in a promptly and safely. Whether you require teeth to be straightened for a cosmetic treatment (such as veneers), or you require a standalone straightening system, Inman aligners may serve as the optimal solution.

Inman aligners consist of a nickel titanium coil spring and two aligner bows. These exact gentle forces on teeth over a large range of movements. In most cases, Inman aligners should be able to complete the necessary tooth development treatment within six to 18 weeks.

SmileStyler® Aligners

These clear, streamlined solutions are customised for your unique dental needs. After your dential professional has completed an initial 3D scan, a SmileStyler® Aligner will be manufactured for a comfortable fit. After this, your dental professional will prescribe the time intervals in which the aligner should be worn.

Express SmileStyler® systems – which can halve treatment times – are also available. Your dentist will factor in your unique dental structure, lifestyle needs and budget to ensure you receive the aligner that best accommodates them.
