Orthodontics:
Shape your smile
Orthodontics in Balwyn
We’re here to help you release your inner smile. We look beyond the teeth and gums, and see the structures that make your smile uniquely your own. By understanding these, we can create a more functional face. A more beautiful profile. And an irresistable smile.
Orthodontics goes beyond facial aesthetics to support your general health and wellbeing. Properly placed teeth make cleaning easier, reduce the likelihood of gum disease, and help optimise the overall function of your face and jaw.
Simply put, we make beautiful smiles by making healthier faces. We don’t start with the teeth. Or the cheeks. Or the lips. We take a deeper look and, once we uncover the elements that will create your perfect smile, we’ll know exactly how to bring it out.
Good health. Good love. A good life! It all starts with a smile.
Dental braces are about so much more than straightening crooked teeth and enhancing facial aesthetics.
Crucially, they help guide the growth and development of facial bones, which explains why they have such profound results in younger patients.
Everyone loves the idea of a beautiful and straight smile. However, the idea of wearing visually-detectable braces over a long period of time and the impact on your confidence can be off-putting. This explains why Invisalign® braces have become such a popular option for many adults and teens.
There’s nothing that gives us greater pleasure than getting to know families, across the generations, and witnessing the positive impact of our work over time.
As a highly regarded dental clinic in Melbourne, we want to build solid, long-term relationships.

What is orthodontics in dentistry?
Orthodontics in dentistry is a specialist branch of oral treatment that works to realign teeth and jaws that haven’t grown to form as straight as they could. Orthodontic treatment can benefit patients cosmetically, through aesthetic improvement to the mouth, face and jaw area. It can also improve oral function by correcting issues such as an overbite.
What orthodontic treatments do you offer at iSmile Studio?
iSmile Studio offers some of the best Melbourne Orthodontic braces. We also offer smile correction services and Invisalign treatments. All our orthodontic treatments come with a variety of approaches tailored for adults, teenagers, and children. Apart from aesthetics, we make sure that your teeth are developing correctly. That’s why we are some of the most popular Orthodontists in Balwyn.
What age should my child have an orthodontic evaluation?
It’s never too late or too early to visit an orthodontist at iSmile Studio. iSmile Studio gives specialised orthodontic services to kids, teenagers, and adults. However, the earlier you go, the better. If your kids have issues with their teeth, we can fix them and ensure they have a beautiful smile for the rest of their lives.
How much are orthodontic treatments?
The cost of your orthodontic treatment will depend on the complexity and duration of work needed to create your new smile. Braces can be required from 12 to 18 months and prices vary depending on which option you choose. We’ll be able to provide a cost estimate at your consultation and offer payment options to make sure your treatment costs are manageable. If you have private health insurance, your plan may cover a proportion of your fees. Check with your provider to find out if orthodontic procedures are included in your cover.
Does orthodontic treatment hurt?
A slight amount of discomfort may be experienced depending on which orthodontic procedure you’re having. With any treatment, your mouth will take a little time to adjust to the new fitting. Initial tenderness and sensitivity are normal in the days and weeks after your first orthodontic treatment. This can be managed with over the counter painkillers and will decrease over time as you get used to your new braces. Eating soft foods and taking cool drinks can help to soothe gums and reduce the risk of irritation. Your orthodontic specialist will be able to provide further recommendations at your appointment.
Why should I consider visiting iSmile Studio for an orthodontic evaluation?
There are many reasons why you should visit an orthodontist. Spaces between teeth, crowding, or protruding dentals can cause various diseases and tooth decay. On the other hand, Melbourne Orthodontic braces can give you that beautiful smile you always wanted and the confidence you need.
Do I still visit iSmile Studio for preventative dentistry during my orthodontic treatment?
Of course. Make sure to visit us regularly to remove any plaque, bacteria, or food. An orthodontic brace can cause more food to get stuck in your mouth and cause issues. With iSmile Studio, we have both orthodontists and dentists in one place, so you can schedule an appointment with both.
