Before and Afters of Actual Patients
More Than Just a Perfect Smile
Braces are synonymous with helping people to achieve a picture-perfect smile, but their benefits go beyond aesthetics. By straightening the teeth, they help patients to bite, speak, and chew more effectively. Did you know that straighter teeth are also easier to brush and floss? All of these benefits add-up to healthier teeth and gums!
Braces to Suit Every Patient
At Focus Orthodontics, we offer a range of braces to help every patient achieve the smile of their dreams. Our options are made to suit every individual’s mouth, aesthetic choices, and budget. During your initial consultation, Dr Mun and the team will be happy to answer any questions you may have about selecting the perfect option for you.

Conventional Metal Braces
Conventional metal braces aren’t just the most common choice of braces, but they’re also often the most affordable. Despite their not-so-popular history some decades ago, metal braces have come a long way. They are a lot more appealing than they used to be!
The stainless-steel brackets are attached to the patient’s teeth and these are then linked to one another using a thin wire. This guides the teeth to move into their ideal positions. The wire is connected to each tooth bracket using o-rings or ligatures and these simply resemble tiny elastics. One of the most fun aspects of conventional metal braces is being able to choose what colour elastics you’d like each month. Some patients like to get very creative!

Ceramic Braces
Ceramic braces are very similar to conventional metal braces, with the most notable difference being that the brackets are made from a transparent ceramic material. This makes them less noticeable, offering a more premium solution to metal braces. Ceramic braces have become a popular choice among adults who wish to be discreet about their teeth-straightening treatment.

Lingual Braces
When it comes to being completely unnoticeable, however, lingual braces take the cake. This treatment uses metal brackets placed on the inside of the teeth, making them 100% invisible when the patient smiles.
This application uses custom-made wires and brackets, ensuring that the patient isn’t just satisfied with the look of their lingual braces, but how they feel too.
Although lingual braces offer one of the most premium options of braces, the treatment time is still roughly the same as conventional metal braces, as we’re dedicated to ensuring the patient is left with results that last a lifetime.

Clear Aligners
Clear aligners provide a discreet, comfortable alternative to traditional braces, helping patients achieve a straighter smile without metal brackets or wires. Made from medical-grade, non-toxic plastic, these aligners are virtually invisible when worn, making them a popular choice among adults and teens alike. Unlike conventional braces, clear aligners don’t require adhesive bonding of brackets to the teeth, which means they are easier to clean and maintain. They are customised to each patient’s unique teeth and smile and designed to deliver predictable, effective results – combining convenience with confidence.
