– A specialist partner
for your patients,
and your practice.
Refer with confidence to a dual-registered specialist orthodontist. We handle the orthodontics, straightforward to complex, keep you informed throughout, and return your patient to you for their ongoing dental care.
Founded and led by specialist orthodontist Dr Shaz MacAvoy (registered as Dr Shahrzad MacAvoy, DCNZ and UK GDC).
The full spectrum, including the cases you'd rather refer
From simple alignment through to the genuinely complex, planned and delivered by the specialist herself.
Cases we welcome
- Comprehensive Class I, II and III malocclusion
- Impacted canines and surgical exposure / traction
- Combined surgical-orthodontic (orthognathic) cases
- Growth modification & interceptive treatment in the growing patient
- Crowding, spacing, crossbite, deep bite, open bite
- Adult comprehensive and pre-restorative alignment
- Clear aligners, LightForce custom & classic fixed appliances
- Transfer cases and treatment of cases declined elsewhere
Your patient comes back to you
We're a specialist orthodontic practice. We don't provide the restorative or general dental care your patient sees you for. Once alignment is complete, they return to your chair, often with a healthier foundation for the work you have planned.
For pre-restorative alignment, we're happy to coordinate directly with you on bracket positioning, spacing and finishing to suit your prosthetic plan.
