Why patients from Chifley choose us

A specialist orthodontist — not a general dentist

Dr Thomas Ethell has completed three additional years of full-time postgraduate orthodontic training and is an Australian Orthodontic Board–certified specialist orthodontist. Australia has roughly 600 registered specialist orthodontists. Tom sees patients travelling in from Chifley personally, with the support of the wider clinical team.

Every treatment option, on the table

Traditional metal braces, clear ceramic braces, Iconix champagne, clear aligners (eg. Invisalign, Angel), early-treatment plates, and retainers. Come in for a consult and we'll walk through every pathway open to you and quote the exact cost.

Built around your life, not the appliance

Appointments are scheduled around school and work where possible. Most adjustments take 15 to 20 minutes. Modern brackets and aligner systems mean fewer visits and longer intervals between them.

Payment plans built for families

Following an initial deposit (from $1,500 on comprehensive cases), we offer interest-free fortnightly payment plans typically over 24 months. If another family member is in or has had comprehensive treatment with us, you receive a flat 5% sibling discount on whatever treatment you need. We provide a receipt for you to claim through your private health fund.
