Braces and retainers are perhaps the most commonly known appliances available from an orthodontist. Braces are used to correct defective alignment of teeth in the mouth, while retainers are often used to hold these teeth in their newly-aligned position after the braces have done their work. Braces and retainers are by no means the only appliances available from an orthodontist. Because a large number of patients are often unfamiliar with other orthodontic appliances and their uses, they end up suffering with a problem that an orthodontist would have helped to fix.

Persons who cannot afford their own medical treatments, including dental treatments, do have some choices and options for dental subsidies in the country of Australia. Children and teens especially are covered under these plans so that they can receive regular checkups and other such dental care. Not everyone is eligible for such subsidies, but knowing if they apply to you can help you to better understand your options for dental care.
