Orthodontics in Central Coast

Achieving a well-aligned smile can be aesthetic; but it also supports overall oral health. Straight teeth are easier to clean, reducing the risk of decay and gum disease, and a balanced bite helps prevent jaw strain and excessive wear on teeth. At Seabreeze Dental, our orthodontic care in Wamberal is designed to support both function and appearance at every stage of life.

Taking a Collaborative Approach

Dr Dimple Sharma is an overseas-trained orthodontist, now practising as a general dentist in Australia.

At Seabreeze Dental, she provides comprehensive orthodontic care, offering both braces and aligner treatments tailored to each patient’s needs.
From initial records and assessments to treatment planning and ongoing care, Dr Dimple manages the entire process in-house, ensuring consistency and convenience for patients of all ages.

The Importance of Checkups

During a patient’s checkup and clean, we keep a close eye on the development of malocclusion—or teeth that are crooked or have a poor bite. Tooth alignment can be affected as a child grows. The dentist can also see how the jaws grow and how the teeth develop.

However, regular orthodontic assessments are not just for children. Adults considering braces or aligners benefit from careful evaluation of existing dental work, gum health, and bite alignment. Early identification of potential issues allows for simpler and more effective treatment planning.

We advise parents if their child may need braces down the track. Or, we may recommend an interceptive treatment or advice to stop the malocclusion from developing. If your child sucks their thumb, for example, we can provide an appliance called Bluegrass, which prevents thumb-sucking.

These things can be caught at a very initial stage of the regular checkups and cleans. We will discuss our findings with parents and let them know if there’s a particular issue, tooth or growth pattern to keep an eye on. For that child, instead of coming in for six monthly checkups, we may recommend three monthly checkups.

Teeth Aligning Solutions

A straight and balanced smile supports oral health and overall wellbeing. If you or your child have teeth that are crooked or gapped, we offer several orthodontic solutions at our Wamberal clinic.

  • Braces: We offer traditional metal braces and ceramic ones, which are less conspicuous. Both work effectively for children, teens, and adults.
  • Invisalign Aligners: If you’re looking to straighten your smile discreetly, Invisalign treatment gets notable results. While we offer both Invisalign and Sparks aligners at the clinic, we also plan to introduce Angel Aligners, another globally recognised orthodontic system.
We also emphasise patient education throughout the process, ensuring that you and your child understand each stage of treatment, proper oral hygiene practices, and how to care for braces or aligners. This approach helps maintain results, minimise complications, and ensures a smoother, more comfortable orthodontic experience from start to finish.

Orthodontics at Every Stage

Kids 7-10

Ideally, seven years is the orthodontic checkup age, which is recommended because the permanent teeth have replaced the front baby teeth, and the back molars have started erupting.

At this age, we can look inside your child’s mouth and check if there are any chances of malocclusion developing or jaws growing in unfavorable directions. We can plan any early orthodontic treatment needed, which can be divided into two or three phases.

Kids 10-15
During these ages, we have to correct what has gone wrong. This is the treatment age, as interception isn’t possible.
Adults
Adults can achieve a pleasing and functional smile with either braces or clear aligners. Our approach considers existing dental restorations, gum health, and bite dynamics to provide a safe and effective treatment plan tailored to your needs.

Long-term follow-up is recommended for all patients to maintain results and monitor oral health. By combining modern orthodontic technology with personalised care, Seabreeze Dental in Wamberal helps patients of all ages achieve straighter, healthier smiles.
