4 Things You Should Know about 6-Month Smiles Treatment

Cosmetic dentistry has made remarkable advancements recently, with treatments utilising improved technologies delivering more predictable results. Even in this supportive environment, the mention of braces often makes people apprehensive. For young individuals, wearing braces for a couple of years can lead to a fantastic smile for life. However, it can be challenging for adults to wear braces during business meetings or social occasions. Additionally, traditional metal braces can cause significant discomfort and may make one feel self-conscious while eating or kissing.

Modern Therapy: The latest orthodontic treatment, known as 6 Month Smiles, provides an ideal solution for fixing crooked teeth and enhancing your smile.This treatment ranks among the most popular cosmetic dentistry options in London, tailored to meet each patient’s unique needs. As the name implies, it delivers speedy results in about six months. The treatment focuses specifically on your front teeth to address cosmetic issues while straightening them effectively.

Fast and discreet solution: This therapy uses advanced American technology, imported to Britain to address crooked smiles and gappy gums with a set of high-tech braces.The specially designed braces come in the colour of your teeth. Thus, it becomes almost impossible for others to detect them in your mouth and make out that you’re undergoing any cosmetic dentistry treatment. This is where the 6 Month Smile braces stand apart from their traditional counterparts. As already mentioned above, the therapy focuses only on the set of teeth that gets displayed whenever you smile. It does not try to fix your bite problem. Thus, the treatment proves helpful to make a significant cosmetic impression by making small adjustments to the teeth.

A thorough checkup is the first step: As the first step to the treatment, you need to make an appointment with your oral health expert. The orthodontist will check your teeth thoroughly and will do other necessary clinical assessments.  They will then discuss in detail, the improvements that can be made to your teeth and how they will look once the treatment is complete. Based on this discussion, your 6 Month Smiles clear braces will be customised specifically for you. Finally, a professional will fit the braces.

Does not suit all: It is important to remember, this modern dental cosmetic therapy is not suitable for everyone. This is because it makes only minor adjustments to your front teeth. If you require more comprehensive orthodontic treatment, your dentist may not recommend you this therapy.

Most patients often ask how painful the treatment will be. However, modern techniques result in minimal pain, although you may experience some initial discomfort. To discuss this aspect of the treatment, we invite you to join us at Dulwich Dental Office for a consultation. The discomfort will normally fade away after the first couple of weeks in the treatment.
