Going for any orthodontic treatment that straightens uneven or crooked teeth effectively can help in improving the aesthetic appeal of your smile. It not only improves the appearance of a person but also boosts confidence of an individual.

Everyone wants perfectly aligned and straight teeth but most of us do not want to go for painful and long orthodontic procedures.

Some of the tooth problems that can be rectified with 6 month smile treatment are as follows:

• Crowding:   Teeth positioned too close together
• Spacing :     Teeth have gaps between them
• Overbite :    Overlapping of teeth
• Overjet :    Protruding front teeth
• Underbite :     Protruding lower teeth
• Crossbite :     Teeth meet on the wrong side of each other with sub optimal bite
• Openbite :    Teeth do not come together in a bite

Your teeth will be realigned quickly and safely with 6 Month Smiles. The technique uses cutting edge technology and method including clear adult braces to straighten teeth. This procedure has exploited the benefits of new techniques by using white wires and clear braces with a primary focus on moving the teeth that show when you smile.

This treatment procedure is done by following 6 steps:

• Quick Teeth Straightening Method
  Six month smile treatment provides perfectly aligned teeth within a shorter span as compared to the traditional metal wired braces. Just as the name suggests, this procedure takes about 6 months to even out the crooked teeth giving you a more attractive smile.
• Transparent Orthodontics
  The 6 month smile uses clear and transparent brackets to straighten out crooked and uneven teeth. These braces are transparent and are not visible to people until they are too close to you. These give you freedom from metal wires that might result in embarrassment or social ridicule.
• Comfortable Treatment
  This system pushes the teeth continuously to align them correctly. It uses light force that makes the treatment less painful and more comfortable than other orthodontic treatments. Due to the usage of lighter force over the teeth, there is a less chance of damage to the roots and gum tissues.
• Affordable Orthodontic Procedure This procedure is affordable as compared to other orthodontic procedures due to the shorter span of time needed to get straighter and perfectly aligned teeth.

• Q. How will I know if Six Month Smiles will work for me ?The Dulwich Dental team uses only the most cutting edge treatment and only ever recommends treatments that have a proven track record and reputation for excellence. Although relatively new in the UK, Six Month Smiles have been used to treat thousands of patients in the USA with great success.

• Q. If it normally takes 2-3 years to straighten teeth how do Six Month Smiles do it in less ?The 6 Month Smile treatment uses special nickel titanium wires that gently move the teeth in your smile line rather than all the teeth. The emphasis is on aesthetics rather than healthy teeth that do not show when you smile. The focus is on how your teeth look, rather than the position of your bite.

• Q. Will Six Month Smiles treatment be painful ?Most of our patients tell us that they don’t have any pain. This is due to the fact that Six Month Smiles works by gently moving the teeth using a low degree of force. But everyone is different and it is possible that you might have some initial discomfort. Taking a few over the counter pain killers should be quite sufficient to deal with this for the short time it takes to become accustomed to the treatment.

• Q. Will I speak differently when I am wearing the braces ?Possibly, during the first week as you get used to your new braces, but your speech should soon return to normal.

• Q. After my Six Month Smiles treatment is complete will I need to wear a retainer ?Your teeth will, if unrestrained, tend to move back to their pre-treatment position and a retainer brace will stop this happening as it would in any other orthodontic treatment. You will be able to choose from a night-time retainer or braces that bond to the back surface of your teeth.

• Q. How much do Six Month Smiles braces cost ?The Six Month Smiles system is much less expensive than the equivalent conventional brace treatment. Treatment does vary a little from patient to patient. All payment options and your own treatment cost will be discussed at your FREE consultation

6 month smiles reviews that are based on patients’ experience, indicate that the use of wires and clear brackets that are almost invisible on the teeth, has hugely improved patient experience and comfort. Shorter treatment times and low-movement were also a very popular feature especially for those who wanted to see fast results.
