Clear Aligners

Clear aligners are custom-made, removable trays that gradually straighten teeth using a series of nearly invisible plastic aligners. Patients change aligners every 10 days, allowing teeth to shift incrementally into the desired position. Ideal for disciplined individuals seeking discreet orthodontic treatment without compromising aesthetics or oral hygiene.

Conventional Braces

Traditional braces use brackets, wires, and auxiliaries to correct misaligned teeth and jaw issues. Suitable for complex cases, they address overbites, crossbites, and severe crowding. Available in metal or ceramic options, these fixed appliances provide reliable results for patients of all ages requiring structural dental corrections.

Children's Orthodontics

Early orthodontic intervention for children aged 7+ addresses dental growth issues before jaw development slows. Treatments prevent future complications by correcting bite problems, crossbites, and crowding. Early action reduces the need for extensive procedures later, promoting healthier smiles and improved self-esteem during critical developmental years.

Surgical Orthodontic Treatment

Surgical orthodontics combines orthodontic care with maxillofacial surgery to correct severe jaw alignment issues. This approach treats structural problems affecting bite function and facial aesthetics. Collaborating with trusted surgeons, we ensure comprehensive solutions for optimal dental and skeletal harmony in complex cases.

Adult Orthodontics

Adult orthodontics focuses on correcting dental misalignments and enhancing oral health for mature patients. Tailored solutions like clear aligners or discreet braces address cosmetic concerns and functional issues. Treatments improve smile aesthetics, periodontal health, and overall dental function, proving it's never too late for a confident, healthy smile.

Jamie and his team know there teeth!!! Jaime went above and beyond to help my daughter and myself. We moved interstate...we asked to be transferred to another "orthodontics surgery" for easier access...nope did not have the same enthusiasm or feel that Jamie's surgery had. We traveled every six weeks over 600kms to visit symmetry orthodontics to get the right treatment for our daughter. Well worth all the travel...plus who could not resist the view in the dentist chair of the rolling waves of Alexandra Headlands!! ( And Jaime of course ) thank you all so much for all your help with Sunny

I've been attending practice for about 4 years and up to now has been great. There was a slight discomfort at one point while receiving a couple distractions but otherwise, all together this deserves a rating of 5/5.

Thank you to Jamie and all the team at Symmetry. Our son needed some specialised work done, and his new smile says it all. He's thrilled! Highly recommended for a great experience, with a kind and professional team, in a wonderful relaxed atmosphere, and even looking out to the surf at Alexandra Headlands throughout. Brilliant!
