Orthodontics for children and teenagers in Canterbury

For children, an early assessment helps us understand how the teeth and jaw are developing. It does not always mean treatment is needed straight away, but it lets us recommend the right time to begin if it is.

For teenagers, we offer braces and clear aligners designed to fit around school, sport and a busy family calendar, with guidance on looking after their teeth throughout treatment.

Invisalign® for adults in Canterbury

Orthodontic treatment is not only for younger patients. Many Canterbury adults choose Invisalign® for a discreet way to straighten their teeth, whether to address longstanding crowding, changes over time or simply to feel more confident.

As a Diamond Invisalign® Provider, our Specialist Orthodontists plan each case in detail. We also offer in-house clear aligners as an alternative.

Braces for Canterbury patients

For patients who prefer a fixed option, clear ceramic braces offer discreet, tooth-coloured brackets, while traditional metal braces remain a reliable choice. Our digital indirect bonding system supports precise bracket placement.

The right option depends on a clinical assessment, which we talk through with you at your first visit.

Convenient care with Dental Monitoring

For busy Canterbury households, Dental Monitoring can make treatment easier to manage. A quick scan taken at home on your phone lets our team review progress remotely, where clinically appropriate.

That can reduce the number of in-person visits to Burwood during treatment, while your Specialist Orthodontist stays closely involved. If something needs attention, we will ask you to come in.
