Your smile is often the very first impression you make and are a large part of our identity. Crooked or crowded teeth can hinder your appearance, how you are perceived by others and your confidence. Crowded teeth can also cause dental problems that may lead to gum disease, tooth decay or even tooth loss.
These are the reasons why Dr Basil Athanassiadis believes improving your teeth with orthodontic treatment is one of the most valuable investments you can make.
Orthodontics, is the area of dentistry that focuses on the alignment of the teeth and jaws. Dr Basil has completed additional training in this area, over the last 12 years he has completed courses with Progressive Orthodontics, Dr Derek Mahoney (specialist Orthodontist in Sydney) mini-residency, Dr Steve Galella (USA) and courses at the University of Queensland.
