Six Month Smiles^®

The Six Month Smiles® Cosmetic Braces System, available here at Preferred Family Dental, is an innovative orthodontic treatment designed to straighten your teeth much faster than traditional braces. Whereas metal braces can be uncomfortable and cause individuals to feel self-conscious about their prominent appearance, Six Month Smiles® utilizes a combination of discreet clear braces and tooth-colored wires to gently move teeth into more ideal positions. In as little as four months, patients often experience noticeable results, and many patients will have effectively straightened their teeth within six months of treatment.

Benefits of Six Month Smiles®

The Six Month Smiles® orthodontic technique is often ideal for older teenagers and adult patients who want to straighten their teeth and improve their smiles without the years of discomfort and self-consciousness associated with more traditional orthodontic options. Six Month Smiles® can dramatically reduce treatment time while effectively:

• Straightening teeth
• Improving the position of crowded teeth
• Closing gaps and spaces
• Improving bite alignment
• Increasing the efficiency of brushing and flossing
• Making teeth easier to whiten

Six Month Smiles® Procedure

The tooth-colored nickel titanium wires used in Six Month Smiles® treatments are designed to straighten teeth with less force than traditional metal braces, providing a more comfortable experience for each patient. In addition, this increased comfort does not compromise the efficiency of the process—the majority of patients achieve straightened teeth within six months. Because Six Month Smiles® employs a smaller degree of force on the teeth, the treatment also reduces the chance of root or tissue damage when compared to other orthodontic treatments. After the clear braces are removed, a retainer is worn for a period of time to help maintain the new position of the teeth. These retainers will not only keep your smile looking its best, but can also be used in teeth whitening treatments.
