Orthodontics

Straight teeth are about more than aesthetics — a properly aligned bite improves chewing function, reduces wear on teeth, and makes oral hygiene easier. At Yass Valley Dental, we offer modern orthodontic solutions for children, teenagers, and adults, tailored to your specific bite, lifestyle, and goals.

Dr Daniel Yang holds a postgraduate diploma in Clinical Orthodontics from the City of London Dental School and has a special interest in non-extraction orthodontics and clear aligner therapy. This means many patients who have been told they need teeth removed for braces may have alternatives available to them.

Invisalign Clear Aligners

Invisalign is the world's leading clear aligner system. Custom-made, removable aligners gradually shift your teeth into alignment — with no metal wires or brackets. Each set of aligners is worn for one to two weeks before progressing to the next. Invisalign suits a wide range of cases, from simple crowding to more complex bite corrections.

Traditional Orthodontics

For cases that require more precise control of tooth movement, conventional orthodontic appliances may be the most effective option. We'll assess your case and recommend the most appropriate treatment for your specific needs.

Functional Appliances

For growing children and teenagers, functional appliances can influence jaw development to correct bite problems before they become more complex. Early intervention can reduce or eliminate the need for braces later.

Orthodontic Retention

After your teeth have been straightened, retainers are essential to maintain your result. We provide both removable and fixed retainers, and we'll guide you on long-term retention to keep your smile in position for life.

Frequently asked questions

Am I too old for orthodontic treatment?

No. Adults make up a significant proportion of orthodontic patients. Teeth can be moved at any age, provided your gums and bone are healthy. Invisalign is particularly popular with adults who want a discreet option that fits around their professional and social lives.

How long does Invisalign take?

Treatment time depends on the complexity of your case. Simple cases may be complete in six to twelve months. More comprehensive treatment typically takes twelve to twenty-four months. We’ll give you a realistic timeline at your consultation based on your specific teeth and bite.

Is Invisalign as effective as braces?

For the majority of cases, yes. Advances in Invisalign technology over the past decade mean it can now treat a wide range of complex cases that were previously only manageable with braces. Your suitability for Invisalign will be assessed during your consultation.

What is the difference between Invisalign Express and Comprehensive?

Invisalign Express is a shorter, simpler treatment for minor tooth movement. Invisalign Comprehensive is a full course of treatment for more significant alignment and bite issues. There are also intermediate options. The right choice depends entirely on your specific case.

Does orthodontic treatment hurt?

Some mild pressure or discomfort when starting a new aligner set or after an adjustment is normal — this is a sign your teeth are moving. This usually settles within a few days. Over-the-counter pain relief can help if needed.

Will I need to wear retainers forever?

Teeth have a natural tendency to shift back over time, so retainers are recommended long-term — typically worn nightly. This is a small commitment to protect a significant investment. We provide clear retainer instructions and check your retention at ongoing appointments.
