Creating straighter, healthier, and more confident smiles.
Straighten your teeth with our orthodontic team in Kellyville

Orthodontic Treatment Options
Orthodontic Treatment Options for Adults at Kellyville Smiles
We offer a full range of orthodontic care for adults, including modern braces and aligners designed for comfort, efficiency, and aesthetics.
The Damon System uses passive self-ligating braces, eliminating the need for elastic ties. Unlike conventional orthodontic braces, which often require extractions, Damon braces use light biological forces to create space naturally.
Benefits include:
- Shorter treatment times compared to traditional braces
- Greater comfort with no elastics
- Less plaque build-up, reducing the risk of gum disease
- Rarely requires tooth extractions (<5% of cases)
- No bulky headgear or expanders
Damon braces are ideal for treating even complex cases such as overbites, underbites, and crossbites. Learn more about the different types of braces.
Damon Clear braces work just like Damon Q2 but feature transparent brackets, making them a discreet choice for adults.
- Clear bracket bodies for supreme aesthetics
- No elastic ties, preventing staining and bacteria build-up
- Advanced passive self-ligation for efficient tooth movement
- Resistant to staining from coffee, wine, and other foods
- Smooth, rounded design for greater comfort
These clear braces are a popular choice for adults who want effective results without compromising appearance.
As a leading Gold Invisalign provider in Kellyville, we offer a virtually invisible alternative to braces. Invisalign uses a series of custom-made aligners to gradually shift teeth.
- Aligners are removable for eating, brushing, and flossing
- Changed every 1–2 weeks for steady progress
- Results in as little as 6 months (case-dependent)
- No wires or brackets, reducing irritation
- Discreet – most people won’t notice you’re in treatment
Millions worldwide have chosen Invisalign to align teeth discreetly. Learn more in our guide: Understanding the Invisalign Process.

Common Orthodontic Problems in Adults
Our team provides tailored orthodontic services to address a wide range of issues, including:
Crowding
Crowding is the most common orthodontic problem in adults. It often results from a mismatch between jaw size and the total size of the teeth.
Crowding may also be caused by impacted or retained teeth that do not naturally fall out. When left untreated, crowding can make it difficult to clean between the teeth, leading to tooth decay and gum disease.
Treatment with dental braces, clear braces, or Invisalign clear aligners can resolve crowding and protect your long-term oral health.
Spacing
Spaces between teeth may occur at the front or back of the mouth, often due to jaw-to-tooth size disharmony or small/abnormally shaped teeth. Spacing can trap food and contribute to gum disease if not corrected.
Our orthodontic dentists in Kellyville can recommend solutions such as invisible braces, transparent braces, or orthodontic retainers to close gaps and create a balanced smile.
Increased Overbite (Deep Bite)
A deep bite occurs when the upper and lower front teeth overlap excessively. It’s usually linked to jaw height discrepancies or the eruption of incisors. This condition can be corrected with metal braces or clear aligners.
Learn more about the types of braces and their pros and cons.
Open Bite
An anterior open bite occurs when the front teeth do not overlap vertically, often linked to thumb sucking or tongue thrusting.
A posterior open bite involves the back teeth failing to meet, affecting chewing.
Both can be corrected with orthodontic treatment, including transparent braces or Invisalign retainers.
Gummy Smile
A gummy smile gives the appearance of excessive gum tissue above the teeth. Treatment may include clear aligners, braces, or surgical approaches in severe cases.

What are the main types of braces available for adults?
We offer modern orthodontic options such as Damon Q2 metal braces, Damon Clear ceramic braces, and Invisalign clear aligners. Each option has its own benefits depending on your lifestyle and treatment needs.
Am I too old for orthodontic treatment?
No! Orthodontics isn’t just for children or teenagers. At Kellyville Smiles, we offer customised orthodontic care for adults of all ages. Whether you need braces or clear aligners, it’s never too late to achieve a straighter smile.
How long does orthodontic treatment take for adults?
Treatment time varies depending on the complexity of your case. On average, braces or Invisalign treatment for adults can take 6–24 months. Our orthodontics dentist in Kellyville will give you a personalised timeline at your consultation.
Are clear aligners as effective as braces?
Yes, in many cases. Invisalign clear aligners can correct mild to moderate orthodontic issues and are virtually invisible. However, for more complex cases, fixed braces may still be recommended.
* Any surgical or invasive procedure carries risks. Before proceeding, you should seek a second opinion from an appropriately qualified health practitioner.
