Six month smiles describes this type of brace that is able to re-position crooked or misaligned teeth over a period of six months. This is an ideal choice for those who need tooth correction but are not prepared to go through a treatment that could last as long as two to three years. Six month smiles are treatment options that fix misaligned teeth in a shorter period of time. Other options include Invisalign, Inman Aligner and ClearStep.
Six month smiles consist of small tooth-colored brackets and wires that blend well with your own teeth. They are not transparent like Invisalign, but are hard to detect never-the-less. That is, they are hardly noticeable. And they are certainly less noticeable than traditional braces.
This type of brace works by using a small amount of force to shift teeth into the desired position. The nickel titanium wires apply constant pressure when they are worn. This small and unobtrusive brace treats misaligned teeth as well as overbites, underbites, overcrowded teeth and fixes those gaps between teeth.
As with similar teeth alignment procedures, the first step is an initial consultation with our dentist. This is when we will discuss your orthodontic requirements. There will be a series of stages in which we progress from consultation through to the final fitting and any needed adjustments. In some cases, you may be required to undergo some dental work before the braces can be applied.
At Shoreline Dental Care, we offer six month smile as well as other options for correcting misaligned teeth. Our mission is to build long-lasting relationships with our patients in Milford and the surrounding areas.
