Teeth Straightening

Straightening Teeth with Precision, Health and Confidence in Mind

Do you ever hide your smile in photos?

Are crowded or crooked teeth making it hard to keep your teeth clean?

Does your bite cause wear, strain, or discomfort?

Straight teeth are about more than just appearance.
They play a key role in your long-term oral health, stability, and function.
At Divine Smiles, our orthodontic treatments are carefully planned to improve both the look and function of your smile for years to come.

Why Straightening Teeth Matters

Many people think orthodontics is just cosmetic, but properly aligned teeth actually:
– Are easier to clean
– Reduce inflammation and bleeding gums
– Lower long-term risk of gum disease
– Decrease the likelihood of tooth decay
– Distribute bite forces evenly
– Reduce abnormal wear and fractures

Gum disease is still the main reason adults lose teeth. Straightening your teeth can lower this risk by making it easier to keep them clean. This is about protecting your teeth for the long term, not just making your photos look better.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who Is Suitable for Orthodontic Treatment?

You’re never too old to straighten your teeth. Most adults can have orthodontic treatment as long as their gums and bone are healthy.

At Divine Smiles:
– We monitor jaw growth and tooth development in children
– If early orthodontic intervention is needed, we refer appropriately to specialist orthodontists
– We treat most adult cases in-house
– More complex skeletal or surgical cases are referred to specialist orthodontists when required

We always recommend treatment based on what is best for your dental health, not just what is convenient.

How Long Does Treatment Take?

How long treatment takes depends on how complex your case is. For many adults, great results can be seen in just 6 to 12 months. More complex bite issues may take a bit longer to correct.

After we assess your teeth, we’ll give you a realistic timeline tailored to your needs.

What Does Orthodontic Treatment Cost?

Orthodontic treatment is personalised and so is the cost.

Cost depends on:
– Complexity of movement required
– Type of orthodontic system used
– Length of treatment
– Retention requirements

The best way to know the cost is to have a personal assessment. We’ll give you a clear, written treatment plan with upfront pricing and offer flexible payment options to suit your circumstances.

What Happens at Your Orthodontic Consultation?

During your consultation, you’ll receive:
– Clinical examination
– Digital photographs
– 3D digital scans
– Bite analysis

With digital technology, we can show you a 3D simulation of:
– Your current alignment
– The projected end result
– Estimated treatment duration

This lets you see your potential results before you decide to start treatment.

What Are Clear Aligners?

Clear aligners are a modern way to straighten teeth using a series of custom trays.

Each aligner:
– Applies controlled, gradual pressure
– Is worn approximately 20–22 hours per day
– Is changed every 1–2 weeks

Advantages include:
– Discretion
– Removability
– Easier hygiene maintenance
– Minimal dietary restrictions

They’re especially popular with adults who want a subtle way to straighten their teeth.

What Is the Six Month Smiles System?

Six Month Smiles is a short-term orthodontic option that focuses on straightening the front teeth for a better appearance.

It uses:
– Tooth-coloured brackets
– Clear archwires
– Light, continuous forces

It is ideal for patients who:
– Want visible improvement quickly
– Have mild to moderate crowding or spacing
– Do not require major bite correction
