The Look Orthodontists

What a fantastic night connecting with so many dentists across City of Wyndham , Point Cook, Altona and the wider western suburbs.

We loved co‑hosting this event with our colleagues at ofsspecialists and seeing both familiar faces and new ones in the room.

A huge thank‑you to Dr Vidya Iyer, Dr Lon Kang, Dr Claire Furness and Dr Felix Sim for sharing their expertise — especially the lively discussion around combined orthodontic and surgical cases.

We’re proud to support our local dental community and grateful to everyone who made the time to join us.

More events coming soon.

When a teenager says, “I already feel insecure about my smile. Braces might make it worse,” the temptation is to immediately reassure them:
“No one will notice.”

But that may not be what they need to hear.

They may need to know that you understand why becoming more visible—even temporarily - feels frightening.

A gentler response might be:
“I understand why you are worried. You do not have to pretend that wearing braces would feel easy. But I would like us to find out what your options are and what the journey might actually look like for you.”

Then help them look beyond the first few weeks.

Invite them to picture laughing without covering their mouth, feeling comfortable in photos and speaking without wondering whether someone is looking at their teeth.

Not as a promise. As a possibility worth exploring, with the first step being the initial consultation.

Remember, the initial consultation is not a commitment to braces.

It is simply an opportunity for your teenager to ask questions, understand their options, see what may be possible and begin imagining their smile with greater confidence.

If you have noticed changes in the way your teenager smiles, talks, appears in photos or feels about their teeth, a first consultation can give both of you clarity and reassurance.

Book your first orthodontic consultation with The LOOK Orthodontists and let’s start the conversation together.

🦷 NEW VIDEO: Everything You Need to Know About RME Expanders!

Has your child been told they need an RME (Rapid Maxillary Expander)? Wondering how it works or how to turn it ?

An RME expander is a specialised orthodontic appliance that gently widens the upper jaw while a child is still growing. By expanding the jaw, we can:
✅ Create space for crowded teeth
✅ Correct crossbites
✅ Improve the way the upper and lower teeth fit together
✅ Reduce the need for future tooth extractions in many cases
✅ In some patients, improve the size of the airway and nasal breathing

Although it might look intimidating at first, expanders are one of the most effective and predictable appliances we use in growing patients. The expansion is gradual, carefully controlled, and closely monitored by your orthodontist throughout treatment.

If you’ve ever wondered why we recommend expanders—or if your child is about to start treatment—this video is a great place to start.

🎥 Watch the video now and let us know if you have any questions—we’re always happy to help!
