Specialist careBy Dr Shaun Goh
The Go Ortho difference
Precision in the treatment.
Warmth in the experience.
Our mission is to transform lives, one smile at a time. We combine specialist training, advanced treatment options and a patient-centred culture in clinics designed around efficient, high-quality care.
Individualised, not one-size-fits-all
From early jaw development to complex adult treatment, recommendations reflect your biology, priorities and lifestyle.
Modern clinics built around care
Digital workflows and thoughtfully designed treatment spaces help the team move efficiently while preserving privacy and personal attention.
Treatment, simplified
Explore your treatment options in one place.
Choose a treatment to see what it does, who it may suit and the important practical points. Your exact recommendation is made after specialist assessment.
Discreet + removable
Clear aligners
Transparent, removable trays gradually align teeth and correct selected bite problems. Go Orthodontics uses leading systems including Spark, Angel Aligners and Invisalign.
- Nearly invisible and removable for eating, brushing, sport and events
- Usually requires around 22 hours of wear each day
- Digital monitoring may reduce unnecessary in-clinic visits
- Excellent for many cases, but not the best tool for every problem
Often suits: Committed adults and selected teenagers seeking a discreet option.
Versatile + precise
Metal braces
The gold standard for controlled tooth movement and bite correction. Modern brackets and wires are smaller, more comfortable and highly effective across a wide range of complexity.
- Reliable for simple through to complex treatment
- Works continuously without relying on tray wear
- Custom positioning allows highly precise movement
- Suitable from early treatment through to adulthood
Often suits: Children, teenagers and adults wanting a dependable, comprehensive option.
Subtle + fixed
Clear ceramic braces
Tooth-coloured or clear brackets provide the control of fixed braces with a less visible appearance. They remain active around the clock.
- More discreet than conventional metal brackets
- Fixed in place, so no daily wear-time decisions
- Care is needed to minimise bracket breakage and staining
- Metal brackets may still be used on less visible back teeth
Often suits: Older teenagers and adults who prefer a fixed but aesthetic appliance.
Early width correction
Orthodontic expanders
Rapid maxillary expanders are custom appliances used to treat narrow upper jaws and crossbites by gradually widening the maxilla during growth.
- Commonly considered for children around 8–10 years
- A small key activates the appliance as instructed
- Stays in place for eating and drinking
- Suitability depends on jaw maturity and the specific problem
Often suits: Growing children with a narrow palate, posterior crossbite or related eruption problems.
Jaw relationship + growth timing
Growth modification
Custom functional appliances act on the jaws, muscles and teeth during growth to improve selected jaw and bite relationships.
- Timing is coordinated with the child’s growth pattern
- Commonly used around the pubertal growth spurt
- May be followed by braces to align and stabilise the bite
- Results remain subject to each patient’s biological limits
Often suits: Growing patients with a clinically significant jaw relationship problem.
Not sure which option fits?A consultation is about choosing the right tool—not selling a particular appliance.
Care through every stage
Start with the person—not the appliance.
Select an age group to see the common priorities and recommended timing.
01
Children
Detect important problems while growth can still help.
We recommend a first orthodontic assessment by around age 9. Most children do not need immediate treatment, but early review can identify crossbites, underbites, narrow jaws and eruption problems at the right time.
Common focusJaw width, bite relationships and tooth eruption
Possible optionsMonitoring, expanders, partial braces or early functional appliances
“Early assessment creates options—even when the best decision is simply to monitor.”
02
Teenagers
Comprehensive correction at a biologically useful time.
The teenage years are commonly when teeth alignment and bite problems are fully resolved. Growth can still assist selected corrections, while braces, clear braces and aligners provide different pathways to the same goal.
Common focusAlignment, bite correction, confidence and stable function
Possible optionsMetal braces, ceramic braces, aligners and growth modification
“The best appliance is the one that matches the problem and the teenager’s ability to use it well.”
03
Adults
Discreet treatment designed around work and life.
Adults of any age can benefit from orthodontics. Treatment may improve appearance and bite function, or create the right tooth positions before implants, crowns and other restorative dental care.
Common focusAesthetics, function, gum health and restorative preparation
Possible optionsClear aligners, ceramic braces, metal braces and selected complex care
“Modern planning can make orthodontics fit around adult life—not the other way around.”

The essentials, all in one place.
Concise answers replace another layer of menu pages.

No. Dentist referrals are welcomed, but patients and parents can book directly.
What age should my child first be assessed?+
Go Orthodontics recommends a first orthodontic consultation by around age 9, or earlier when a dentist identifies a concern.
Are clear aligners always better than braces?+

Will I receive a full fee at the first visit?+
Yes. The consultation includes a comprehensive quote for the recommended treatment pathway.
Can treatment start quickly?+
Once you are ready, treatment can usually be scheduled promptly. Same-day starts may be available in selected situations.
