Getting your teeth straightened does not have to be a hugely inconvenient undertaking that takes a long time and leaves you feeling self conscious about the metal wires and brackets in your mouth. That has been the way that many people have unfortunately experienced the process of having their teeth straightened for many years now though. Traditional braces are very effective and can deal with all teeth alignment issues but if the problem is a little more minor then you might consider one of the newer products on the market like Six Months Smile.
Six Months Smile works in a very similar way to traditional metal braces but eliminates some of the problems associated with them. As already mentioned, many people, especially teenager find that metal braces look nothing short of unsightly in their mouth and suffer from reduced confidence as a result. With Six Months Smile, the wires and brackets are all together more discreet and the colour can be adapted to the shade of your existing teeth. This means that they are simply not as noticeable in your mouth and social occasions suddenly become that much easier as a consequence.
As the name suggests, Six Months Smile takes only six months to resolve issues with alignment in your mouth. As the average treatment time of traditional braces is three times that length, this is a vast improvement. Ask your Swindon dentist about Six Months Smile and see if it is right for you. Your issues with tooth alignment won’t just go away if you ignore them; do something about it by getting the Six Months Smile treatment from your dentist.
