Specialist Orthodontist

Collins Street Orthodontics, working in conjunction with Collins Street Specialist Centre, is located in the unique Orthodontic Tower overlooking Melbourne's skyline in the iconic Manchester Unity Building. We have an exciting opportunity for an experienced Specialist Orthodontist to join our team, already home to three board registered Specialist Orthodontists who are platinum elite Invisalign providers.

Collins Street Orthodontics forms part of the Smile Solutions team, a family owned and operated practice that has cared for more than 200,000 patients over the last 25 years in Melbourne. We are a multidisciplinary practice serviced by an experienced team of general practitioners as well as a diverse group of board-registered specialists in the fields of oral & maxillofacial surgery, endodontics, orthodontics, periodontics, prosthodontics, and paediatric dentistry. Our dynamic team of clinicians is enthusiastically supported by management, reception, and nursing staff, 25 of whom have been with our practice for more than 10 years.

At Collins Street Orthodontics we focus on providing the highest quality of service and care. Our specialist orthodontic team is knowledgeable and caring and whilst the team operates in a fast-paced environment, patient care remains a constant priority within our dedicated orthodontic department. We are a state-of-the-art practice who is genuinely invested in the latest technology and equipment, as well as consistently receiving excellent Google reviews from our patients.

Our orthodontic department brings in more than 3,000 new patients a year, with over one-third of those being new Invisalign starts; this makes us one of the only Blue Diamond Invisalign providers in Australia. We have a large pre-existing patient base and are extremely busy, with a constant flow of patients booked weeks in advance.

"I started working with Smile Solutions in 2011 and have completed over 2,000 Invisalign cases. This speaks volumes about the consistent supply of new patients at Smile Solutions, which has always been exceptional.

I have always been busy and enjoyed the outstanding facilities that Smile Solutions has provided, both with the latest technology and equipment and most of all with the supportive auxiliary staff.

Another unique aspect of Smile Solutions is working alongside other specialists and general dentists; this helps improve the quality of care that I offer my patients.

I would highly recommend any specialist or dentist to join us at Smile Solutions."

– Dr David Austin, Registered Specialist Orthodontist
