Choosing orthodontic treatment is an important step, whether you’re considering braces for your child or finally exploring treatment for yourself. At Gentle Touch Orthodontics, we proudly welcome patients from Rose Park and surrounding Adelaide suburbs for specialist orthodontic care in a supportive and welcoming environment.
Led by Specialist Orthodontist Dr Balya Sriram, our focus is on creating healthy, confident smiles through personalised treatment designed around each patient’s needs, lifestyle, and goals.
How Specialist Orthodontic Treatment Can Help
Orthodontics focuses on improving the position of the teeth and jaws to create a healthier and more aesthetic smile. While general dentists care for your overall oral health, specialist orthodontists complete additional years of training dedicated specifically to orthodontic treatment.
At Gentle Touch Orthodontics, Dr Balya provides treatment for concerns including:
- Crooked or crowded teeth
- Gaps between teeth
- Bite concerns such as overbites, underbites, and crossbites
- Jaw development and facial growth concerns
- Smile cosmetics
- Long term dental function
Orthodontic treatment is not only about appearance. Proper alignment can also support easier cleaning, improved bite function, speech, and long term oral health.

Orthodontic Treatment Options at Gentle Touch Orthodontics
Every smile is different, which is why we offer a range of orthodontic treatment options depending on your needs and lifestyle.
Braces
Braces remain one of the most effective and reliable ways to correct orthodontic concerns. Modern braces are smaller, more comfortable, and more discreet than many people expect.
We offer treatment options suitable for children, teenagers, and adults, including more aesthetic bracket options such as metal, clear and a wide range of colours.
Clear Aligners
Clear aligners use a series of removable, custom-made trays to gradually move teeth into alignment. This treatment option is popular with patients looking for a more discreet and flexible approach to orthodontic care.
During your consultation, Dr Balya will present all options and discuss which treatment option is most suitable for your smile goals and orthodontic needs.
Signs It May Be Time for an Orthodontic Assessment
Many patients assume they need to wait until all adult teeth have come through before seeing an orthodontist, but early assessment can often be beneficial.
You may wish to book an orthodontic consultation if you notice:
- Crowded or overlapping teeth
- Early or late loss of baby teeth
- Difficulty biting or chewing
- Teeth that protrude significantly
- Concerns about jaw growth or facial development
- A child who may benefit from early guidance as they grow
Early assessments allow us to monitor growth and recommend treatment at the most appropriate time if needed. We recommend an early assessment at age 8.
Orthodontic Care for Children, Teens, and Adults
At Gentle Touch Orthodontics, we provide specialist orthodontic care for patients of all ages.
Children
Early orthodontic assessments can help identify developing concerns and guide jaw growth where appropriate. This is often called interceptive treatment.
Teenagers
The teenage years are one of the most common times for orthodontic treatment, as most adult teeth have erupted and alignment concerns can be addressed effectively during growth.
Adults
Orthodontic treatment is becoming increasingly popular for adults looking to improve both the appearance and function of their smile. It’s never too late to invest in your confidence and long term oral health. With adult orthodontics, improving confidence is often our first priority.
What to Expect at Your First Visit
Your first appointment is designed to help you better understand your smile, your concerns, and the treatment options available to you.
During your consultation, we may:
- Assess your teeth, bite, and jaw alignment
- Take photographs and go through your x-rays
- Discuss treatment options
- Explain expected treatment timelines
- Answer any questions you may have
Our approach is always honest, informative, and pressure-free, so you can make the right decision for yourself or your child.
