The Difference Between Orthodontists and Dentists

Orthodontists and dentists both play important roles in dental health care, but they focus on different areas of practice:

Dentists

  • Dentists are general practitioners who diagnose and treat overall oral health issues.
  • They perform routine dental care such as check-ups, cleanings, fillings, crowns, veneers, bridges, and gum care.
  • Dentists can also perform minor orthodontic work, though they do not specialise in this area.
  • They are concerned with the maintenance of good oral hygiene and dental health.
  • After completing a general dental degree, dentists are qualified to practice general dentistry.

Orthodontists

  • Orthodontists are specialists who focus on diagnosing, preventing, and treating dental and facial irregularities.
  • They specialise in the alignment of teeth and jaws using braces, clear aligners, and other devices.
  • Orthodontists treat malocclusions or inappropriate bites, which can be caused by uneven jaw connections, abnormal teeth, or a combination of the two.
  • Orthodontists are the go-to professionals for interventions such as correcting crowded or spaced teeth and aligning the upper and lower jaws.

FAQ – For Patients Travelling From Rockdale

When should I get dental braces near Rockdale?

It’s usually best to start comprehensive orthodontic treatment either with metal/ceramic dental braces or invisible clear aligners once all adult teeth have come out. This usually happens when you’re between 10 and 13 years old. However, the exact treatment timing depends on specific orthodontic issues that need to be fixed.

It’s highly recommended to see an orthodontist for a consultation and dental growth and development review at around 8 or 9 years old. If you’re a parent, the kids’ orthodontist, Dr Tee, from the OrthoBoutique team will be able to tell you when it’s the right time to start orthodontic treatment (with dental braces or Invisalign clear aligners) for your child.

Do I need to wear Invisalign forever?

Invisalign braces or Invisible clear aligners are to be replaced every week or two in order to gradually move the teeth in the direction planned by the specialist orthodontist. Invisalign should be worn 20-22 hours daily (all day except when you eat and brush). You don’t need to wear them forever — our specialist orthodontist will provide a personalised orthodontic treatment plan and give you a projected timeline to follow. For a simple case, it can range from 6-12 months. For more complicated cases, it can take from 18-24 months.

What age is appropriate for Invisalign treatment?

At OrthoBoutique, we’ve had people come in for Invisalign clear aligners and other orthodontic treatments (full fixed dental braces) in their early teens and well into their adult years. If you’re interested in having Invisalign or any other orthodontic options, you can contact us so we can arrange for a consultation with our specialist orthodontist near Rockdale.

What foods can’t I have while I have dental braces (metal braces/ ceramic braces) on?

Here are some examples of foods to avoid:

  • Potato chips
  • Popcorn
  • Crunchy nuts
  • Crunchy vegetables
  • Hard candy
  • Gum
  • Sticky candy
  • Beef jerky
  • Pizza crust
  • Apples 
  • Ice cubes

When it’s time for you to have your dental braces in Sydney done by our orthodontist in Surry Hills, make sure to ask the specialist team what their personal recommendations are — this way, you won’t have to make unnecessary dietary changes without the supervision of a professional.

Which orthodontic treatment is right for me?

A thorough consultation is the first step in your journey, during which our orthodontist will evaluate your dental, skeletal and facial structure, talk with you about your goals, and suggest the best course of action with regards to orthodontic appliances of choice for your particular situation.

Are orthodontic treatments painful?

While some discomfort is normal as your teeth adjust to orthodontic appliances, modern orthodontic treatments are designed for maximum comfort. Our team at OrthoBoutique – Specialist Orthodontist, ensures that any discomfort is minimised and well-managed throughout your treatment.

How long does an orthodontic treatment take?

The duration of orthodontic treatment varies depending on each patient’s needs and the complexity of the case. During your consultation, we’ll provide an estimated timeline tailored to your specific situation.

Can I still maintain an active lifestyle with orthodontic appliances?

Absolutely. We encourage you to continue enjoying your activities while undergoing treatment with both dental braces and clear aligners. Our team can provide guidance on how to protect your orthodontic appliances and maintain your oral hygiene effectively.
