There are many different types of braces and teeth aligners on the market today, each offering a different advantage over the other orthodontic straighteners. But there is one brace that offers all round treatment that is both effective and fast.

Six Month Smile braces were developed in the US about a decade ago and are currently sweeping the UK, rapidly becoming the treatment of choice for many patients and dentists. The main advantages they offer to patients are that treatment takes on average about six months (hence the clever name), around 75 per cent shorter than most conventional treatments. The wires and brackets used in Six Month braces are also smaller and tooth coloured so they are much more discreet than most other traditional braces and even most modern ones.

Six Month Smile braces also aim to straighten the teeth gently without the need for painful tightening appointments and large amounts of discomfort, which can be one of the main drawbacks of wearing braces. Finally, and perhaps most importantly, they cost about half the price of other orthodontic treatment, which is obviously a huge advantage especially when you are not losing any effectiveness of treatment.

Patients need braces for many different alignment reasons. It could be due to overcrowding or even too much space between the teeth in the dental arc. There are also a number of bite issues that need to be corrected with straightening. The Six Month Smile braces work by attaching small and discreet brackets to the teeth and attaching these with a thin wire. This wire gradually moves the teeth into the desired, straighter position. Not all patients are suitable for Six Month Smile treatment, so make an appointment with a City of London dentist to see if you could benefit from these incredible new braces.

Orthodontics has undergone something of a revolution in the last ten years. There are a number of new straightening tools on the market to suit the needs of all patients. One of the latest and most impressive is called the Six Month Smile braces, so called because it aims to straighten teeth in only six months. Thanks to new braces such as Six Month Smile, many patients are finally changing the way they feel about wearing a brace.

Many patients have been put off in the past because of the unsightly appearance of braces but the Six Month Smile brace has taken a modern approach addressing and improving these issues. Still retaining the straightening power of a traditional fixed metal brace, the Six Month Smile brace has tried to give it more of an aesthetic twist.

Maintaining the same amount of power without using the same amount of force is the key to the Six Month Smile’s success in providing a more comfortable straightening experience. They have also designed the brace to have clear fixed brackets and tooth coloured wires, making it seem a lot less imposing in the mouth, one of the main complaints against old fixed braces. In fact, it is quite hard to see the Six Month brace unless standing very close to the patient.

Many patients therefore find that the Six Month Smile causes far less disruption to their life than they had previously imagined. More comfortable and less visually intrusive but still capable of producing stunning straight teeth and a beautiful smile, ask your Central London dentist about the very latest in orthodontic straightening.
