Benefits of Six Month Smiles

The Six Month Smiles treatment plan is designed using the same basic principles of traditional orthodontic care. The appliances used, fixed brackets and a wire for each arch, are consistent with what you would expect from metal braces. The goal of Six Month Smiles is to correct minor, visible misalignment affecting the teeth that are seen when you speak or smile. It tends to be an ideal solution for those who completed orthodontic treatment but have experienced a relapse, where teeth have shifted.

Barely-there appliances

Six Month Smiles has been developed for today’s discerning dental patient. The brackets and wires are made of clear resin, which immediately makes this treatment appealing to adults who want to see improvement in the position of front teeth. While you go through treatment, the work you are putting into your smile will be barely noticeable.

Proven, low-force technique achieves quick results

As the name implies, the Six Month Smiles orthodontic system is intended for the quick resolution of minor cosmetic misalignment. Through the implementation of low force using modern materials, this system applies consistent pressure to teeth twenty-four hours a day. Most people who choose smile correction with Six Month Smiles are able to achieve their desired result in four to nine months.

Proven mechanics creates a comfortable process

The effective repositioning of teeth in the Six Month Smiles plan comes from consistent, gentle pressure. The low-profile, low-force appliances follow the same mechanical principles of traditional orthodontics, placing all focus on the teeth at the front of the mouth. Due to this focus on only a portion of dentition, the entire teeth-straightening process is made more comfortable.
