Trusted by thousands of Australian children, teens, adults and pensioners to achieve their perfect smile via braces and Invisalign, Dr Kamal Ahmed and the South Coast Orthodontics team are proud to establish their new practice at Corrimal, New South Wales, serving families all across the Illawarra.
After completing five years of study at the University of Sydney, Dr Kamal graduated with a degree in dentistry. He then pursued a further three years amounting to 5,000 hours of additional study, graduating and mastering the specialisation of orthodontics, again at the University of Sydney.
Adding to his academic and professional accomplishments, Dr Kamal is a member of the prestigious Royal Australasian College of Dental Surgeons, Royal Australasian College of Dental Surgeons in Orthodontics, European Orthodontic Society, and Royal College of Surgeons Edinburgh in Orthodontics at the United Kingdom.

South Coast Orthodontics is located at Corrimal, but regularly serves patients from the Illawarra including Wollongong, Shellharbour, Kiama, Otford, Windang, Maddens Plain, and Cordeaux. Throughout Dr Kamal Ahmed’s decades of experience in dentistry and orthodontics, thousands of customers also regularly drive in from outside of the Illawarra including Sydney, to ensure that their braces and Invisalign treatments are directly led under the experience, care, work and supervision of Dr Kamal.

Sleep Apnoea Solutions
A Better Life Starts with Better Sleep
One in ten Australians suffer sleep apnoea, a sleep disorder that causes pauses in breathing or short and shallow breaths during sleep. Both adults and children can suffer sleep apnoea, which is why South Coast Orthodontics is dedicated to examining, diagnosing and solving this critical medical condition.

I have known and worked alongside Dr Kamal Ahmed for over 10 years and I can highly recommend him as an orthodontist. He is one of those rare people that really enjoys seeing his patients and getting to know them. He provides excellent orthodontic care and is conservative with the treatment plans he proposes, yet advanced in the quality of treatment he provides. His main goal is to provide safe treatment with a beautiful smile and happy patients in the end. His staff are absolutely lovely and makes everyone feel welcome and like part of their family.
