Anyone who has confidence issues with their smile may want to find a suitable option to correct it. However, not everyone, adults especially, will want to put up with the appearance and treatment time frame of conventional braces. This is where Six Month Smiles braces come in. Instead of having to wear a brace for two years or more, Six Month Smiles braces at dentists serving patients from Stalybridge can effectively straighten your smile in as little as six months.
These braces are not completely invisible, but as they are made from lighter material, the wire used is much finer and the colour of the metal blends in with your teeth, they are still incredibly discreet. Unlike more conventional braces, Six Month Smiles braces are not suitable for everyone, and if you suffer from complex orthodontic problems they may not be the ideal brace for you.
However, if the issue lies with your front teeth, such as crooked teeth, minor spacing or bite related issues, then Six Month Smiles will be able to correct these problems. This option is perfect for anyone who has minor issues they would like to correct and want the treatment to be as quick as possible, for example someone who is planning a wedding or speaking at a major event.
Like any other form of braces there will be some discomfort to begin with, however this will quickly subside and over the counter pain medication should be able to lessen the mild pain. Again, like their more noticeable counterparts, it is advisable to wear a retainer for a period of time after treatment to ensure the teeth do not relapse back to their original position. In most cases Six Month Smiles braces are not recommended for teenagers, but some patients aged 15 years and older may be suitable.
If you have any issues with your smile, you should talk to your orthodontist about the options available to you. It may be that Six Month Smiles braces are not suitable, but if this is the case an alternative treatment can be suggested to provide the desired results.
