Alignment and space
Crowding, gaps and tooth position need a complete assessment, rather than a decision based on a smile photograph alone.
Orthodontics considers how the upper and lower teeth fit together as well as their alignment. At WOW Dental, a consultation combines your goals with an assessment of teeth and gums to compare fixed braces and clear aligners. Complex cases may need specialist assessment.

Crowding, gaps and tooth position need a complete assessment, rather than a decision based on a smile photograph alone.
The depth and front-to-back and side-to-side relationships of the bite affect planning and may influence the type of appliance.
Cleaning, reviews and wear habits matter. Treatment requires cooperation between you and the care team.
Discuss appearance, chewing or cleaning concerns. Images and models are obtained as needed.
Discuss achievable goals, limitations, timing and fees. An appliance brand does not replace an individual diagnosis.
Attend reviews during treatment and plan retainers and follow-up afterwards to reduce unwanted tooth movement.
Fees depend on complexity, appliances and the scope of treatment. Check whether examinations, imaging, reviews, extra adjustments and retainers are included.
PAYMENT & HEALTH FUNDSExplore common questions, then discuss what is suitable for you at an individual assessment.
Yes, adults can be assessed. Gum and overall oral health are more important than age alone.
Not necessarily. Space, facial proportions and the bite must be assessed before discussing extractions or other ways of managing space.
Neither is right for everyone. They offer different movement control and require different levels of patient participation.
Teeth can move again after treatment. Follow your dentist’s individual instructions for the type of retainer and wear schedule.

Bring your questions. We start with an examination and a conversation. Get to know our team and arrange a time that suits you.
