Six Month Smile FAQs
How is it possible to straighten teeth in six months?
Six Month Smiles focuses on aligning the teeth that show when you smile, the “social six to eight” front teeth. This advanced orthodontic system targets mild to moderate cosmetic concerns rather than complex bite issues. The treatment takes 6-9 months, but the average treatment is six months. The duration of treatment depends on specific dental needs.
What’s the catch?
There isn’t a catch, but there are limitations. Six Month Smiles is designed for cosmetic alignment, not major orthodontic corrections. If you have significant bite problems or severe crowding, your dentist will recommend metal braces or clear aligners. Generally, 6 Month Smiles is ideal for patients aged 15 or older who do not want major alterations to their bite.
Will my braces be visible?
Six Month Smiles uses tooth-colored wires and clear brackets, making them far less noticeable than conventional braces. Most people won’t easily spot them in everyday conversations or photos.
Does the treatment hurt?
Six Month Smiles uses a gentle, low-force technique to move your teeth into the desired positions. However, since treatment moves your teeth, it would be odd if you didn’t experience any sensation. During treatment, you may experience mild pressure or soreness as your teeth begin to shift, especially in the first few days after adjustments. However, the forces used are typically lighter than traditional braces, making the experience more comfortable for most patients.
Should I wear a retainer after Six Month Smiles?
Yes! As with any orthodontic treatment, it’s important to wear retainers after Six Month Smiles.
