Six Month Smiles in Essex by Cosmetic Dentist Dr J Basrai

What is Six Month Smiles?

Six Month Smiles represents a new application of traditional braces technology. The method works more quickly due to it being targeted at the teeth most in need of correction. It also uses equipment which is less intrusive than traditional bracket and wire braces from a cosmetic standpoint. The applications for this type of tooth straightening are broader than are many of the other new products on the market and, for some individuals, they may provide more predictable and desirable end results. The devices are applied by a dentist and are not removable by the patient.

There are several different products, including Six Month Smiles, which have been introduced to the market in recent years to compete with traditional braces. These products are oftentimes particularly popular with adults who would prefer not to regress to childhood, as it were, by having obvious metal devices wired to their teeth. Six Month Smiles uses a system of clear wires and invisible brackets which are less cosmetically noticeable than are regular braces. For adults with teeth in need of correction, this can make the whole affair much more tolerable than it would be were they required to rely on standard braces.

Six Month Smiles focuses on the front teeth. Standard braces provide alignment to the full arches and, if that is required, the Six Month Smiles system may not be appropriate. For those who simply need their “smiling” teeth corrected, however, this system provides faster results than do traditional braces which are usually left installed for two or more years. This product is also more flexible than the braces alternative products on the market in its application. While other products have an enormous convenience factor, there are some types of correction that they simply cannot provide and which render them inappropriate for some patients.

The removable aligner options on the market can be quite effective but only for specific types of realignment. The Six Month Smiles technique is more flexible and can correct more severe types of crowding and crooked teeth issues than can the removable trays used by other alignment systems. In some cases, removable tray treatment requires the application of braces at the end of the treatment term to refine the results which may not be predictable in all cases. Six Month Smiles combines the reliability of traditional braces with the shorter treatment terms of the newest devices.
