Beauty of the Six Month Smiles Program

Many adults are embarrassed about crooked teeth ruining their smile but shy away from conventional orthodontic treatment. Besides being a lengthy process, wearing standard braces can be costly, and some patients find them unsightly and awkward.

If you feel the need to cover your mouth when you smile, laugh or talk, a new system of cosmetic short-term orthodontic treatment is available that’s affordable, discreet and works much faster than regular braces or aligners.

Six Month Smiles1 offers a fast solution if crooked, misaligned, gapped or spaced front teeth are spoiling your smile. The beauty of the Six Month Smiles program is that it concentrates cosmetic orthodontic therapy where it really matters – on your most visible teeth.

This innovative focus on aesthetic concerns provides a speedy solution to the problem of unsightly front teeth – typically within six months, compared with comprehensive orthodontic treatment, which can take a couple of years.

Backed by the latest digital dental technology, the Six Month Smiles program is available to people aged 16-plus. It combines the effectiveness of traditional braces with the inconspicuous characteristics of plastic aligners like Invisalign. Six Month Smiles uses special braces with tooth-colored wires and clear brackets, which blend in with your teeth.

How Does the Six Month Smiles Program Work?

The Six Month Smiles system is straightforward and patient-focused. It uses advanced technology and techniques to move your teeth quickly and safely. Six Month Smiles is based on proven orthodontic mechanics but with a greater emphasis on the appearance of your teeth rather than the bite function.

The process begins with taking impressions of your teeth, which are sent to a Six Month Smiles processing center, where a specialist uses a model of your teeth to determine the optimum location for placing the clear brackets.

Everything you need for your braces is then packaged into a customized Six Month Smiles Patient Tray Kit for your dentist to bond the braces to your teeth.

Once your Six Month Smiles braces are in place, your dentist will monitor the progress of your treatment once a month and make minor adjustments to keep everything on track. When your teeth have been moved into their correct position, the braces can be removed easily, and you can enjoy your new smile with confidence.

As with conventional braces or aligner treatment, you’ll need to wear a retainer behind your teeth when your braces come off. This makes sure your straightened teeth don’t shift back out of their proper position.

Average treatment time of the Six Month Smiles program is – as the brand name suggests – six months but it can vary from four to nine months.

Six Month Smiles vs. Conventional Braces

While regular braces provide an effective method of straightening teeth, they can pose oral hygiene problems.

It’s difficult to clean your teeth and gums properly when wearing braces, and, because they need to be worn for a long time, this can eventually lead to bad breath, tooth sensitivity, inflammation of the gums, and weakening of tooth enamel through accumulation of plaque and tartar.

The risk of issues such as these is diminished by the Six Month Smiles program. Because these braces only need to stay in place for an average of six months, there’s far less time for oral hygiene issues to develop.

Another problem with conventional braces is having to avoid certain foods over a long period of time. Drastically changing your diet for one or two years or even longer calls for a high level of commitment. The significantly reduced treatment time of the Six Month Smiles program makes it much easier to cut out the hard or sticky foods that could damage your braces

Although traditional metal braces are now sleeker and more discreet than ever, they’re still the most noticeable type of braces. The Six Month Smiles program’s tooth-colored wires and clear brackets and are barely visible.

Six Month Smiles vs. Invisalign

Unlike Invisalign plastic aligners2, the Six Month Smiles program uses brackets and wires to straighten your teeth. This makes Six Month Smiles braces more noticeable than Invisalign appliances but can also reduce treatment time by 50 percent.

The Invisalign system is generally more expensive because it entails wearing a series of several aligners, which have to be swapped out every two weeks over about 12 months. Six Month Smiles patients wear the same braces throughout treatment.

It’s Never Too Late to Get the Smile of Your Dreams!

Research suggests that adults are just as likely to need braces as youngsters. However, before Six Month Smiles, adults typically had to wear braces for longer than children to see the same results.

If the timescale involved in conventional braces treatment has put you off getting the smile you’ve always wanted, the Six Month Smiles program offers an effective, fast-track method of teeth straightening.

If you’ve always had crooked front teeth because you didn’t get orthodontic care as a child, Six Month Smiles now provides a speedy cosmetic solution to put things right at last.

Even if you wore braces when younger, your teeth can still move out of position as you get older, through factors such as natural changes in your mouth, injury or a medical condition.

Six Month Smiles may also help your professional life. According to the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry3 (AACD), people with an attractive smile are regarded as being smarter and more successful.

Benefits of the Six Month Smile Program

The Six Month Smiles program for adults offers an effective, short-term orthodontic treatment to address cosmetic problems with your front teeth to dramatically enhance the appearance of your smile.

The system is typically less costly than standard braces or aligners, or cosmetic treatments such as veneers. The brackets and wires blend in with your teeth so they’re practically unnoticeable, and the Six Month Smiles program straightens and aligns teeth gently, safely and comfortably.

Six Month Smiles is a revolutionary orthodontic system based on the effectiveness of traditional braces but modified and digitally enhanced to give adults a cosmetic orthodontic solution to fit their lifestyle.

If you think the Six Month Smiles program may be the cosmetic orthodontic option you’ve been waiting for, you can get further advice from a dental practice that specializes in cosmetic treatments for adults.
