Just as the name suggests, Six Month Smiles gives you straight teeth in just six months in the majority of cases! This revolutionary system straightens the front six to nine teeth (the teeth that people see when you smile) using clear brackets and tooth coloured wires, meaning no unsightly traditional metal brackets.
Six Month Smiles braces can take between 4-9 months, but generally are completed in six months.
Advantages of Six Month Smiles
- Average treatment time of just 6 months
- Barely visible brackets and wires
- Conservative, predictable, and less invasive option to straighten teeth compared to other treatment options.
- Custom-made brackets allowing for optimal results.
- Shorter fitting appointment than traditional braces
- Typically less expensive compared to veneers and some other orthodontic appliances.
The treatment involves an initial impression taken of your teeth, which is sent off to the laboratory where your brackets will be custom-made to fit your teeth. The Six Month Smiles are then fitted to your teeth and an archwire is placed.
You will be asked to return to the Dentist every 4 weeks to tighten the wire and review your progress. Spaces may be created by polishing off a slight amount of enamel between the teeth, to help the teeth move into the arch.
At the end of treatment, a retainer will be placed to keep your teeth in their new position. This can either be a removable retainer or a fixed wire retainer that is placed behind the teeth. It is important to wear a retainer once completing the treatment so that your new smile will last you forever!
