Traditional Metal Braces
The impact a healthy & attractive smile can have on one’s self-esteem and confidence is invaluable. Orthodontic treatments can improve teeth that are crooked, misaligned, or crowded - leaving you with not only a beautiful smile but also a massive boost in confidence.
Braces aren’t just for cosmetic purposes, they can correct the alignment of your teeth and improve the functionality of your jaw. With misaligned teeth, you may come across difficulties in eating, talking, and oral health upkeep (which puts you at risk of quite serious dental issues). Braces will gently move your teeth (and roots) to their optimal position, it does take many months - however, once treatment is complete the beautiful results are lifelong.

Smoke in Mt Wellington
Smoke has been seen coming from the crater of the Auckland maunga Mt Wellington.
Images of the smoke began appearing on social media on Friday afternoon.
Around 1.45pm, Fire and Emergency (Fenz) shift manager Josh Pennefather told the NZ Herald a crew was fighting a fire of about 60 square metres in size.
”It’s spreading up hill … [but] there’s no property at risk at this stage,” Pennefather said.
Six fire trucks were in attendance working to contain a grass fire that's spreading up the maunga.
A helicopter was on its way to assist firefighting efforts, he added.
At 2pm, Pennefather shared that the fire was contained and they were working to extinguish it, including “keeping an eye on a whole bunch of hot spots“.
