Unlock Your New Smile With Six Month Smiles

Six Month Smiles is an innovative orthodontic treatment designed to correct misaligned teeth in a shorter time frame. Unlike traditional braces, this technique focuses solely on straightening the teeth that are visible when you smile. This targeted approach, using either clear aligners or barely visible braces, allows for faster and more efficient tooth movement. Your dentist will begin with a thorough exam to determine if you are a good fit for the short-term treatment.

If this option for orthodontics is right for you, you’ll appreciate:

  • Fast Results – With this treatment, you can achieve results within six months. This is much quicker than other orthodontic solutions that typically take at least a year to get the results you want.
  • Discreet Appearance – Six Month Smiles offers clear aligners and discreet braces. Both work well if you want to straighten your teeth without drawing attention to your treatment.
  • Comfortable Treatment – The braces are designed with your comfort in mind, using comfortable brackets and specialized wire technology that gently move your teeth into their desired positions. Aligners are comfortable too, with no metal to rub against your mouth.
  • Versatile Solution – These treatments work well for many orthodontic issues such as mild to moderate misalignment, crowding, or spacing issues. It’s also great if you are preparing for a special event, like a wedding or reunion.

You can opt for either clear aligners or braces, depending on what’s right for your needs and goals. Once treatment is finished, you may even want to give your smile a bigger boost with a quick and easy teeth whitening treatment in our office. You’ll also receive a custom retainer that will ensure your teeth remain in their proper positions.
