Smile like the Lion King
The Lion King, a Disney production is in the Cinemas at the moment.
It is an excellent movie for the whole family and highly recommended.
By the way, one of the most common questions we get asked as a practice is: "what is the perfect age for braces?"
We recommend bringing your little Prince or Princess when they are 7 years old. By this time the first permanent teeth will have come through.
So we can get a pretty good idea what will need to be done during your orthodontic treatment program with us.

Free Monitoring Program Through Bachmann

We will also put in place a free, regular oral development monitoring program for your child. That will run right up until they start their program to ensure we begin their treatment at the best time possible. We have many years of experience & training in assessing a child's pace of oral development. As such, it is usually immediately obvious to us what level of treatment will be required, if teeth will need to be removed for any reason and more.
•
When we assess a child or young adult, we always consider what their teeth are likely to do in between the time we first see them and when their treatment is expected to begin. We then can more accurately estimate the best age for braces in their specific case. We always tailor our orthodontic treatment programs to each and their needs.
We like to see them smile like a Lion King or Queen.
What can we do to make you smile?

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
