Dental Braces
Achieve a perfectly aligned smile with our comprehensive orthodontic care. We offer traditional and ceramic braces to correct complex alignment issues with precision.
Precise Control
Braces offer superior control for correcting complex bite issues, rotations, and alignment.
Aesthetic Options
Choose clear ceramic brackets for a discreet look that blends with your natural tooth colour.
Long-Term Health
Straight teeth are easier to clean, reducing the risk of decay and gum disease in the future.
Precision Orthodontics
Orthodontic treatment is about more than just straight teeth; it is about creating a healthy, functional bite and a smile that harmonizes with your face. While clear aligners are popular, traditional braces remain the gold standard for treating complex orthodontic cases. At Arete Dental Studio, we offer modern, low-profile braces (both metal and ceramic) that are more comfortable and efficient than ever before. We take a personalised approach, designing a treatment plan that fits your lifestyle and achieves your ideal aesthetic outcome.

Common Questions
How much do dental braces cost in Australia?
Costs vary by complexity, generally ranging from $6,500 to $9,500 for full treatment. We offer flexible, interest-free payment plans to spread the cost over 18-24 months, making a straight smile accessible.
Braces or Clear Aligners: Which is better?
Both are excellent. Braces offer precise control and are efficient for complex bites or rotations. Aligners are removable and invisible. We will assess your specific needs to recommend the best tool for your smile.
Do braces hurt?
Modern braces are small and comfortable. You may feel pressure or soreness for 2-3 days after placement or adjustments as teeth move. This is normal and manageable with pain relief and soft wax.
How long will I need to wear braces?
Treatment typically ranges from 12 to 24 months depending on severity. We provide a tailored timeline during consultation. Regular attendance and following instructions keeps treatment on track.
Do you offer clear or ceramic braces?
Yes, we offer ceramic 'clear' brackets that blend with your tooth colour. They work exactly like metal braces but are much less noticeable, making them a popular choice for adults and teens.
What foods should I avoid with braces?
Avoid very sticky foods (toffee, gum) and hard foods (whole apples, nuts, crusty bread) to prevent breaking brackets. Cut hard fruits into pieces. Most foods can be enjoyed with care.
