Orthodontics North Sydney
Dr Edwina has completed a residency in orthodontics and is experienced in Invisalign and traditional fixed braces. While she enjoys all aspects of general dentistry, she has a special interest in orthodontics.
McMahons Point Dental provides the highest quality orthodontic treatments to Crows Nest, St Leonards, Waverton and North Sydney surrounding locals.
Importance of Orthodontic North Sydney Treatments
Orthodontics is a part of dentistry that specialises in identifying, preventing and treating dental irregularities for better facial appearance and a smile that lasts a lifetime.
Orthodontic treatment will provide you with straight teeth and a more beautiful smile that will give you the confidence to face the world. In some cases, orthodontic treatment can make your teeth and gums easier to clean and even improve your facial appearance as it can make your lips and cheeks appear fuller.
Why you should choose McMahons Point Dental for Orthodontic Treatments
We welcome patients of all ages: children, teenagers, and adults to our North Sydney dental clinic. Your first orthodontic appointment will be with Dr. Edwina who will examine your teeth, determine the options available to you and explain and discuss them. She will listen to all your concerns and answer any questions you might have regarding our orthodontic treatment.
Our modern North Sydney Orthodontic Practice offers different orthodontic methods to suit differing individual requirements including Invisalign (clear braces) or ceramic (white) braces.
We are able to cover all your dental needs while undergoing orthodontic treatment.
Orthodontic Consultations
When you schedule an orthodontic consultation with Dr Edwina, she will take the time to listen to your specific requirements and provide personalised service.
At our Dental Clinic North Sydney we understand that orthodontic treatment can be time-consuming. Seeing a general dentist rather than an orthodontist is more convenient and you can make an appointment time that suits you, even if it’s after school or work or on a Saturday.
The best way to see what type of orthodontic services you require is to set up an appointment where Dr Edwina will answer any questions you may have.

Invisalign
More and more patients are choosing Invisalign treatment for a straighter smile that you can be proud to show off. These “invisible braces” are a less noticeable option and make it easier to keep your teeth clean as you correct them.

Braces
Braces are the fixed appliances that consist of brackets, wires and bands. They are what most people imagine when they hear the word orthodontics. Braces are usually adjusted every four to six weeks to achieve the desired results.
The process can take anything from a few months to two years, depending on the severity of the crowding. Using the advanced technology of the Damon system, braces are less visible, more comfortable and work faster than old- fashioned systems. We have bright colours for kids and clear for adults.

North Sydney Orthodontist
Are you tired of having crooked teeth that let down your smile or even mean that you are embarrassed to smile with your mouth open? Orthodontics can transform your teeth and they can be used on children, teenagers and adults, helping everyone to achieve a set of beautiful straight teeth.
Dr Edwina at McMahons Point Dental is a general dentist with a special interest in orthodontics serving North Shore Sydney. We are a professional practice that delivers excellent results, all while putting our patients at ease.
How Can Orthodontics Benefit Me?
Having a wonky set of teeth can really knock your self-confidence. Our modern world is filled with images of people with beautiful teeth, but chances are those teeth did not happen by accident. Dentistry today has the power to give everyone stunning straight teeth.
It can also help you by making your teeth and gums easier to clean and help with bite problems, correcting difficulties such as an overbite. If you are looking for an orthodontist in the North Shore, consider seeing a general dentist instead, such as McMahons Point Dental’s Dr Edwina, to correct these problems and improve your appearance.
How Orthodontic Treatment Work At McMahons Point Dental
Before we begin any work, we will give you a full consultation where Dr Edwina will examine your teeth and explain the different options available to you. You will also have the chance to ask any questions that you may have or voice any of your concerns. Unlike seeing a specialist orthodontist, you can have all your treatment under the one roof, not travelling to multiple locations for your different dental needs.
We offer traditional braces, and these are used to move the position of your teeth into one that is more aesthetically pleasing and better for your oral health. Brackets are attached to your teeth and then connected with wires and bands, which are tightened and released as necessary to move your teeth. We have different colours available, including the bright colours that are often popular with children and teenagers, along with clear choices for adults.
When you choose to have braces, the effects will not be instant. Depending on how your teeth are, it could take a few months and can take up to two years. However, you can expect the results to last you a lifetime with the right care. Often popular with adults are our Invisalign aligners, which can straighten your teeth without braces. We at McMahons Point Dental often find our adult patients prefer this option because they are almost invisable. However, you can still expect to get fantastic results. No matter which form of orthodontic treatment you choose, the team at McMahons Point Dental will take the journey with you.

Orthopaedic Appliances
Sometimes teeth can’t be moved to achieve optimum facial aesthetics and function without the use of fixed appliances. Dr Toulmin most commonly uses a MARA (Mandibular Anterior Repositioning Device) for people with what is commonly known as an overbite, where the bottom jaw is too far back compared with the top jaw. This appliance slowly and painlessly stretches the jaw muscles so they adapt to biting in the correct position.
In people with a narrow top jaw, Dr Edwina uses an expander which again, slowly and painlessly expands the jaw so the teeth have enough space.
