Dr. Simon Wong

Recognised as the world's leading expert in facial growth guidance (Orthotropics), Dr. Wong has been a practicing general dentist since 1991.

Principal of Natural Smiles Centre in Melbourne, Australia, Dr. Wong serves as Head Fellow's Mentor and Examiner at the London School of Facial Orthotropics and as Profesor Visitante at the University of Valencia.

Mentored by the pioneers of Orthotropics — Prof. John Mew and Dr. Bill Hang — Dr. Wong developed the Postural Orthodontics framework as a practical, evidence-based bridge for general dentists worldwide.

His work has been featured in Netflix's documentary Open Wide, and 135+ of his consecutive cases are currently under research at major universities.

"If there's any questions about me not getting the best orthotropic results...then it's Simon Wong who is."
— Dr. Mike Mew

Why Postural Orthodontics?

Modern dentistry often treats symptoms rather than root causes. Postural Orthodontics addresses the origin of malocclusion.

Root Cause Treatment

Address the true origins of malocclusion — posture, tongue position, and breathing — rather than mechanically moving teeth.

Early Intervention

The ideal window is ages 3–11, before skeletal growth is complete. Early guidance produces lasting, natural results without extractions.

Evidence-Based

Backed by 138 peer-reviewed articles, Texas A&M research, and 135+ consecutive cases under university study.

Minimal Compliance

The GOPex system (Good Oral Posture Exercises) is designed for real-world patients — effective with minimal compliance demands.

General Practice Ready

Designed for general dentists. The 7-step framework integrates seamlessly into existing practice workflows without specialty referrals.

Wong Widgets

Custom-designed removable expansion appliances developed collaboratively with Dr. Wong — a unique, proprietary system.

Who Is This For?

This program is for dentists who are passionate about interception & are intervention minded for their youngest patients.

Dentist-Parents

For early-interceptive-focused dentists who are parents seeking guidance and supervision in treating their own children, Dr. Wong provides support through his Residency/Mentoring Program.

Mission-Driven Community

If you wish to join a mission-driven community of 500+ members and growing — airway-centric dental professionals — then you're in the right place.

No Orthodontic Background? No Problem.

For those with no training in orthodontics or pediatric dentistry, this will open your eyes and allow you to efficiently screen for the many medical and dental childhood problems troubling oral growth & development. We also provide the extra fundamental orthodontic training needed to practice Postural Orthodontics.

Already Practice Orthodontics?

You will develop a greater understanding of the root causes of malocclusion and expand your skills to consistently provide effective early intervention for children ages 4–10.

Sleep Dentistry Clinicians

You will learn why our profession frowns upon advocates who claim to use orthodontics to manage Sleep Disordered Breathing, why clinical research proves orthodontic mechanics are non-curative, and what evidence-based, effective interventions you can provide instead.

Allied Health Professionals

Registered Dental Hygienists, Myofunctional Therapists, Speech-Language Pathologists and others are welcome. Email us about our discounts for non-dentists — Certificate of Completion still included!

Whether you're interested in the 2-Day Intro Course for CE credits or our 9 or 18-month Residency Program, we have a variety of options for your consideration. Full details and pricing below.

Please Note: This method is for treating mixed dentition or primary dentition children. It is not for treating teenagers or adults with permanent dentition. Dr. Wong generally starts treating patients from ages 4–10, with age 8 or slightly younger being the ideal starting point for Postural Orthodontics.
