If you are looking for an Orthodontist in Springvale or the wider metropolitan area, Dr Nathan’s Dental Surgery has a senior dentist with an orthodontic specialty who can provide solutions for crooked, crowded or teeth out of alignment.
We offer Invisalign treatment, which is an increasingly popular teeth straightening option. Invisalign is a clear aligner that can help straighten and align your teeth. We also offer fixed conventional upper and lower braces. At Dr Nathan’s Dental Surgery, we used the Damon System self-ligating braces. These braces are also fixed on the surface of the teeth, the same as traditional metal braces. The only difference between self-ligating braces and metal braces is that self-ligating braces contain a slide mechanism that attaches the orthodontic wires to the brackets so that they move naturally and straighten teeth gently, instead of having brackets that regularly tighten and adjust the braces. This makes them more convenient, better aesthetically and provides a much better result in a typically shorter time. These braces contain metal or ceramic materials and don’t need any elastic like metal braces.
If you are concerned about the cost of braces, we may be able to offer you an in-house interest free payment plan that allows you to spread the cost of your treatment across a number of appointments.

The total length of time required to wear Invisalign aligners differs for each patient.The time required is largely dependant on how much correction the teeth need and how diligent the patient is in wearing the aligner.
The average time required to wear Invisalign is 12-24 months.For simple corrections it could be only 6 months. For more complex and crowded teeth, it could exceed 24 months.
