Common questions that we get asked as orthodontists When is the best time to start orthodontic treatment? We recommend a first orthodontic assessment for children aged between seven and nine because some benefit greatly from early intervention. Wearing certain appliances may reduce a child’s time in braces later and may also make treatment more effective. Do many adults get orthodontic treatment? We are seeing a growing trend in adults seeking orthodontic treatment, with many choosing to improve their smiles later in life. We offer many aesthetic options to suit your lifestyle, including clear braces and aligners (Invisalign and Spark). Will my child still be able to enjoy the activities they love? Some appliances are removable and some stay fixed in place. Dr Peter Scott and the team love to take the time to get to know you and your family to determine the most appropriate option. This includes your weekend sport and the name of your dog! Dr Scott and his team have grown to better service the Frankston and Peninsula region and welcome Dr Peter Tran to the practice. Dr Tran is a University of Melbourne graduate and has a special interest in early treatment and clear aligner therapy. He is exceptionally great with children and can sometimes be found making balloon animals rather than bending wire!
