How cosmetic braces can transform a patient’s smile in Hendersonville

Dr. Christopher Port and the team of the Family Dental Health of South Asheville believe patients in the Henderson community and surrounding areas should have the ability to choose their orthodontic services based on appearance rather than what society suggests. Instead of going with traditional braces which are unsightly and can take years to provide results, patients with mild to moderate misalignment of their smile may benefit from cosmetic braces such as Six Month Smiles.

Six Month Smiles is a revolutionary way for teenagers and adults to achieve a more beautiful smile without having to undergo traditional orthodontic treatments. Dr. Christopher Port of the Family Dental Health of South Asheville offers this and Invisalign for patients who are unhappy with the idea of having conventional braces placed over their smile and long treatment times. Many patients are interested in having orthodontics done but are unsure about the aesthetic appearance of their smile during treatment which is why solutions such as this exist.

Six Month Smiles works the same way as traditional braces with brackets and wires, though these materials are tooth-colored to blend in with the smile and look much less noticeable than conventional brackets and wires used by orthodontists. Additionally, these self-ligating wires provide patients with gentle force movements and faster results, often within three to nine months depending on the severity of the misalignment. Many patients find that six months is a sufficient period of time to rejuvenate their smile.

Six Month Smiles is just one of two choices for cosmetic braces in Hendersonville. The Family Dental Health of South Asheville also offers Invisalign for patients with more moderate misalignment and for patients who are interested in realigning their bite as well as their anterior (front) teeth. Invisalign is another cosmetic solution as this particular treatment utilizes clear aligner trays which gently reposition the teeth into better alignment.

Both Six Month Smiles and Invisalign are available for patients at the Family Dental Health of South Asheville. Dr. Christopher Port happily accepts new and current patients in his practice and can offer a complimentary consultation appointment and evaluation to find out if these cosmetic braces are an optimal solution for improving the appearance of the smile.
