Dentistry in Canterbury

Dentistry in Canterbury At Dentistry in Canterbury we excel at providing high quality comprehensive general dental treatment With integrity, passion and care.

Our Practice philosophy is to treat every patient as we would treat a family member. Looking at the mouth as a whole, not teeth in isolation, but including the entire face, head, neck and tempromandibular jaw joint. We aim to address each individual's requirements and lifestyle, while providing long lasting treatment.

In growing children, a narrow palate or jaw imbalance can affect breathing, sleep, and overall development.

Signs may include:
โ€ข Mouth breathing during sleep
โ€ข Teeth grinding (bruxism)
โ€ข Poor tongue posture
โ€ข Crowded or protruding teeth

When we intervene early (around ages 6โ€“12), we can often guide jaw growth, expand the arches, and create space naturally โ€” potentially reducing the need for extractions or surgery later.

โœจ Early orthodontics supports healthy breathing, better sleep, and balanced facial growth.
๐Ÿ’ก Orthodontics Australia recommends a first orthodontic assessment from around age 7.

Did you know the best time to guide your childโ€™s smile is during the growing years? ๐Ÿฆทโœจ

In this reel, .julieghaly introduces three Invisalignยฎ early treatment solutions designed specifically for kids:

๐Ÿ”น Invisalign First
Designed for children ages 6โ€“10 in the mixed dentition phase. Helps align teeth while creating space for incoming permanent teeth.

๐Ÿ”น Invisalign Palatal Expander
A modern, removable alternative to traditional expanders that gently widens the upper arch to address crowding and support proper arch development.

๐Ÿ”น Invisalign Mandibular Advancement
Designed for growing patients with lower jaw retrusion, helping guide the lower jaw forward during development. This may support improved airway development and contribute to healthier breathing patterns as your child grows, potentially reducing future risk factors associated with sleep-disordered breathing.

Early intervention isnโ€™t just about straight teeth โ€” itโ€™s about supporting healthy facial growth, balanced development, proper airway support, healthy breathing patterns, and long-term oral health.


๐Ÿ’ก Orthodontics Australia recommends a first orthodontic assessment from around age 7.
