Get started on treatment without taking a trip to the clinic! SmileSnap is an online assessment software that allows you to send us your treatment preferences and pictures of your smile - and allows us to craft an interest-free treatment plan for you! Watch the video below to learn how to take clear photos of your teeth from the angles that help us to best assess your smile.
Many of the things we learn to do as children stay with us for a lifetime. Cleaning and looking after our teeth is no different. Establishing a good oral health routine at an early age will help ensure your child understands the importance of caring for their teeth. It will also help them to enjoy the benefits of a healthy smile.
You don't want to wear braces? That's no problem either. We can achieve a beautiful smile with perfectly straight teeth without a set of braces in sight. Don't believe us? Then you haven't discovered Invisalign. Fortunately, we have and we've been recognised for our expertise with the treatment. We have Blue Diamond Invisalign provider status, which places us in the top 1% of providers in the whole of Australia for Invisalign treatment.
Clear braces are one of the most discreet treatment methods we use here at Straight Smiles. Made from a clear ceramic material, which doesn't stain, the brackets are fitted to the front of your teeth. However, unlike traditional metal braces, the brackets blend in with the natural colour of your teeth, so are virtually invisible.
Metal braces are testament to that. They are the tried and true method of orthodontic treatment and what so many patients associate with orthodontic treatment. Yes, they are also known as 'train tracks' but at the end of the day, they get great results.
Traditional metal braces are made up of three parts: small metal brackets which are attached to the front of your teeth with an orthodontic adhesive; thin metal archwires which link each of these individual brackets together; and elastic bands, also known as ligatures.Together, these three parts apply gentle force to your teeth, guiding them over time into a straight position to give you that beautiful smile you've been in search of.

I have been going here for almost the past 3 years, as this is where I got and started my journey with BRACES ! It’s been quite a long journey, however, I finally got them off today and couldn’t be more happier with the results! Super stoked 🤩💯 Dr. Karim & his team have been so awesome over the years! They’re all so lovely & helpful in any way needed! Highly recommend!!

I would like to thank Straight Smiles and Dr Ed Karim for their great service and for giving us the chance to pay our son's aligners and retainers by instalments, this has been a great help. Also, our son can smile with confidence now, he looks gorgeous!!!. Their services and the treatment have greatly exceeded our expectations. Thank you so much Dr Karim and all your team at Straight Smiles. We would definitely recommend your services to everyone.

Here's a very satisfied client! after three years of patience and orthodontic care I am finally brace free!!, and I could have never been happier with my results. Considering the fact that I previously had an underbite, cross bite Straight smiles had provided me with an non surgical alternative in which I am really grateful for. I would like to thank Dr. Karim and the staff for their exceptional attention to my issues over the years.I was able to see results quickly and Importantly this procedure had led me to feel healthy, happy and confident in my smile.I would have not trusted any one else to

Dr Karim is a very thorough person. During my consultatation, he explained each and every step of whatever he would do with the abnormalities of my teeth and how he would deal with them. Being a orthodontic specialist , his prices are a little high. Despite that, everyone who requires an orthodontic treatment should visit Dr Karim at least once and if cost is not an issue for you, he might be one of the best out there.

So ecstatic with my Invisalign results! I had gaps and protrusions so I didn’t think that I would be an eligible candidate for Invisalign but it is amazing what they can do! Now after only 11 months my teeth are so straight and I couldn’t be happier, I finished my treatment today. Thank you so much Dr Karim and the lovely Dental Nurses at Straight Smiles! Best decision I’ve ever made and wouldn’t have Orthodontic treatment anywhere else.
