Is Six Month Smiles® the Right Choice for You?
If dental misalignment is the reason that you are dissatisfied with your smile, then you might want to consider Six Month Smiles®. The idea of going through regular orthodontic treatment that takes between 12 to 18 months is unappealing to many people. Six Month Smiles works for those who want to improve their smile quickly.
How Six Month Smiles Work
Six Month Smiles incorporates the best components of orthodontic treatments to straighten the teeth. The system uses a clear bracket system and a tooth-colored archwire to make the braces less conspicuous on the teeth.
Also, Six Month Smiles generally focuses on correcting minor issues with the teeth in the front row, the ones that are prominent when smiling. This significantly reduces the overall treatment time compared to traditional braces, which can take one or two years. This option is also faster than clear aligners, which often takes about a year.
The Six Month Smiles system has an almost invisible design and a unique mechanism that produces low pressure that moves the teeth gradually. The results of the procedure can occur in an average time of six months.
The process is simple: The dentist will attach the brackets to the teeth, then schedule the patient for routine adjustment appointments. During the appointments, the dentist will monitor the treatment’s progress and ensure that the braces are working.
Who is eligible for this treatment?
Not everyone can get Six Month Smiles. The dentist will usually recommend the treatment to correct minor cosmetic misalignments, like slightly crooked or gapped teeth. Patients who have severe orthodontic issues, such as improper bite structure or severe teeth crookedness, would benefit from traditional orthodontic options, like Invisalign or braces.
However, if the patient is in good oral health and the misalignment issue is not severe, then Six Month Smiles can be an excellent option to restore teeth alignment. The only way to be sure if this treatment is an ideal choice is to book an appointment with the dentist. They will review the patient’s oral cavity and recommend the dental treatment that will produce the desired result.
Why choose Six Month Smiles?
Reasons to consider this treatment option include the following.
- Better aesthetics. Unlike traditional metal braces that are visible on the teeth, most people will not notice Six Month Smile braces on someone's teeth, which makes it an ideal choice for those seeking discreet treatment
- Better comfort: The materials used are smoother and more comfortable, with a gentle, low-tension structure
- Fast treatment duration: Patients will not have to wait many months before getting their desired smile; since treatment time is short and fewer appointments are required, the cost of treatment is also reduced
