4.9 Star

When it comes to your smile, there’s no compromise – and at Ortho Co., we wholeheartedly understand that.

Gone are the days of bulky, uncomfortable braces. Our Mini-Master braces offer you outstanding accuracy and efficiency, we believe these are the most comfortable and aesthetic metal braces available.

We love our fully ceramic DAMON CLEAR braces, because they are stain-resistant so you can have as many coffees and curries as you like during your treatment.

Throughout your treatment, our team at Ortho Co focuses on personalised care and guidance to ensure you feel supported at every step of your orthodontic journey.

How Do Braces Work?

Fixed braces use the combination of brackets, archwires, and elastics to create a mechanism that applies gentle pressure to your teeth to bring them into alignment. Our orthodontists make periodic adjustments to your braces every 6 to 8 weeks during your scheduled visits. This may include changing out the wire to the next wire in the sequence.

There periodic adjustments are sometimes called braces tightening, and they are an important part of treatment to gradually move teeth into their correct positions and ensure the best possible results.

Our Braces Options In Sydney

Metal Braces:

Metal braces are one of the most reliable and versatile orthodontic treatment options available. Traditional metal braces are commonly used by orthodontists in Sydney to treat a wide range of orthodontic concerns, including crowding, spacing and bite issues.

Modern metal braces are smaller, smoother and more comfortable than earlier designs. They are suitable for children, teenagers and adults and remain a trusted option for more complex orthodontic cases.

Patients can also personalise their braces with coloured elastics at each appointment, making treatment fun for younger patients.

Clear Braces:

Clear braces are a popular choice for patients looking for a more discreet orthodontic treatment option. These braces are made from tooth-coloured ceramic brackets designed to blend more naturally with your teeth during treatment.

Clear braces work in a similar way to traditional braces but are less noticeable, making them a preferred option for many teens and adults seeking braces in Sydney.

At Ortho Co, we offer Damon Clear braces, which use a self-ligating system designed to reduce friction and support efficient tooth movement.

Invisible Braces (Clear Aligners):

Clear aligners, often called invisible braces, are a removable orthodontic treatment option that uses a series of custom-made clear trays to gradually move your teeth.

These nearly invisible aligners are a popular option for adults and teenagers who prefer a more discreet approach to orthodontic treatment. Clear aligners can be removed for eating, brushing and flossing, offering convenience during treatment.

At Ortho Co, we use advanced digital scanning and treatment planning to design aligners that fit comfortably and guide tooth movement over time.

LightForce Custom Braces

LightForce braces are a newer orthodontic technology using fully customised 3D-printed brackets designed specifically for each individual tooth. This personalised approach allows orthodontists to plan treatment digitally and design brackets that fit your teeth precisely.

LightForce braces combine the effectiveness of fixed braces with advanced digital planning, making them a modern option for patients seeking customised braces in Sydney.

Because each bracket is individually designed, treatment can be tailored to each patient’s unique smile.

Lingual Braces:

These braces allow you to have orthodontic treatment without anyone knowing you are wearing an appliance. Lingual braces are placed behind your teeth (the tongue side), making them completely hidden. Perfect for people who want a truly invisible option.

Advantages of Fixed Braces

Proven Effectiveness: With a longstanding history, braces have stood the test of time and advancements in technology have further enhanced their efficiency.
Enhanced Discretion: Fixed braces now offer clear options that blend harmoniously with the colour of your teeth, while smaller and more inconspicuous brackets contribute to a discreet treatment experience.
Long-lasting Durability: By adhering to the dietary guidelines provided by our Orthodontists, your braces will remain durable throughout the entirety of your treatment.
Cost-effective: Fixed braces present an affordable solution for achieving a straighter smile, especially when combined with our flexible interest free payment plans.
