Moving teeth safely, not just straight
Straight teeth should also mean a healthy bite. Your treatment is planned by Dr. Joann Yong, a Consultant Orthodontist with a Doctor of Clinical Dentistry in Orthodontics, who looks at roots, bite and facial profile, not just the front teeth.
Roots move through bone. Every tooth movement affects the root, the surrounding bone and the gum. Moving teeth too far or too fast can cause gum recession or root shortening.
Your bite has to work. A smile can look straight while the back teeth still meet poorly. Orthodontic planning checks how upper and lower teeth fit together when you chew.
Your profile matters too. Tooth position affects lip support and facial balance. A specialist considers this when deciding whether space can be created by expansion, by reshaping, or occasionally by removing teeth.

Invisalign and braces FAQs
Is Invisalign or braces better for me? It depends on your bite, the movements needed and your lifestyle. Clear aligners suit many adults and teens who want discreet treatment and can wear aligners 20 to 22 hours a day. Fixed braces can be more predictable for some complex movements. Your orthodontist will explain both options honestly.
How long does treatment take? Most cases take between 12 and 24 months. Simple crowding can be shorter, while complex bite correction can take longer. Your estimated timeline is part of your written treatment plan.
Why not use a mail-order aligner service? Teeth move through bone, so the roots, gums and bite need to be checked in person. Without X-rays and clinical examination, problems such as gum disease, root shortening or a worsened bite can be missed. Orthodontic planning by a specialist reduces these risks.
Will I need retainers afterwards? Yes. Teeth tend to drift back over time. Retainers, worn as instructed, protect your result long term. Retainers are discussed and included in your plan from the start.
