Braces for adults – Sydney Adult Braces
Adult braces treatment has always been a large part of our work in North Sydney Orthodontics, and even though it can be complex, Dr Daniels is always ready for a new challenge. Adult orthodontics often involves re-treatment of previous brace treatment that has relapsed, and sometimes the takeover of problem cases or transfer of treatment from other practices. We see high flying professional people, and uni students, and everyday workers and even the odd film star seeking our advanced treatments.
How is adult orthodontic treatment different?
Adults want straight teeth but they come with other demands, conditions and timescales that need a full range of orthodontic skills, experience and creativity to solve. Luckily we’re well practiced in non-extraction alignment, ortho-surgical correction, invisible braces and ‘invisalign’ treatment as well as the traditional expertise in visible braces – its all needed .

(Orthodontic) problems for adults only
Not only are adults more demanding than younger patients but they often have more difficult problems. They often come with reduced numbers of teeth, asymmetries caused by compromise early treatment decisions and can be disillusioned from previous poor treatment
Orthodontic Alignment of wisdom teeth
Wisdom teeth can be saved if there is enough space. Even severely misaligned teeth can sometimes be corrected with orthodontics, which is more cost-effective than getting an implant. In this case, the tilted lower wisdom teeth were straightened and gaps closed, improving function and saving the need for a dental implant.
