Braces eh? Can’t be doing with them, but if your mouth is showing signs of trouble for you in the future, you can’t do without them either. Throughout your life in Chepstow, your dentist will endeavour to protect the occlusion of your mouth, or its ‘bite’ and there are many treatments on hand to do this with, the main one being orthodontics, which is the art of teeth straightening through the use of braces. Fixed braces have come in for a lot of ‘stick’ over the years for being ugly and their treatments lengthy, but their modern derivatives have change all of that and the 6 Months Smile has been one of them responsible for this turn around. It takes everything ‘good’ from these old braces, like careful precision aligning of the teeth to remedy biting problems, and then modernises it with its flashy discreet materials which are hard for a passer-by to spot in the mouth. Another thing about this brace is that it is also designed to only work on those teeth that offend the eye when you smile. It’s a simple device that consists of small clear ceramic plates placed on the surface of the teeth and linked by a single wire that is anchored to the rear of the mouth; you make regular visits to the dentist to have it tightened so that the teeth keep moving. Like it says in the brochure, this can all be over within 6 months. If you want more information about this happy little device, then Clifton Dental of Bristol, who serves your area, can give you all the information you need.
So, have you an annoying tooth or a few that are stopping you being the person you should be when socializing in Bath? Well, take a bit of a deep breath because there is something out there that may just cuddle your mouth and rather intrigue you- the 6 months smile. It will do what it promises- it will pull your teeth into place within half a year. It embraces all of the old qualities that have been learnt from old fashioned braces but it delivers a twist. For a start, this brace works on only the teeth in your mouth that need dealing with and every so often, your dentist will tighten it up to keep the process on the go. But it looks cute in the mouth as it is made from modern materials that sit discreetly upon the front of the teeth and are linked with a wire. Yes, it is a fixed brace and you are going to have to work hard at cleaning it whilst it is in your mouth, but that is nothing to care about as you will get the hang of it, but it’s about the bigger picture and in no time at all, your teeth will look incredible. And to give you an extra incentive, this treatment is very reasonably priced in relation to other programs around. It is also a more preferred treatment for people who are getting on in life- age wise.
It’s in the title- 6 months smile and this wonderful little device can put the smile back into your life in Chepstow like it says it can. This device works like your traditional brace but with several twists to it. For a start, it doesn’t concentrate on pulling a whole lot of teeth into place in one go, but it will work on the odd one or two that have been annoying you most of your life. And because you have to pop yourself into the dentists chair every 4 weeks to ensure the brace is adjusted to keep the teeth on the move all the time, it makes the treatment fast. But unlike braces from bygone years that made you feel like you have just had a car crash when you look in the mirror, the 6 months smile is far more sympathetic in the way it sits in the mouth: you have to have ceramic plates fitted to your teeth and then a wire thread through each one. But these will be color coded to suit the color of your teeth, which makes them discreet in the mouth. The only problem that you may have with this device, as with any fixed brace that is fitted to the teeth is that of keeping it clean. You will, and you can get advice from your dentist about this, have to ensure that you remove any food from the mechanism to ensure that any bacteria is not allowed to grow around the wires and infect your gums and teeth. This may take a little practice at first, with dental floss and small brushes. But once you get the hang of it, you’ll be smiling in no time- 6 months in fact!!
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.

Luckily, orthodontic technology has come on a long way in the last ten years and a whole new wave of braces has revolutionised treatment.

There is little doubt that orthodontic braces are the best way to treat misaligned teeth. However, traditional braces are seen by many to be a rather ugly and uncomfortable way to straighten teeth. Fortunately, a more modern approach to teeth straightening has been taken by Six Month Smile braces. They have taken all the best aspects of conventional braces and made adjustments to make them a more sensible and less invasive alternative.
The most significant difference between Six Month braces and traditional ‘train-track’ braces is the time of treatment. Regular orthodontic treatment takes on average between sixteen and eighteen months. Six Month Smile braces are able to achieve the same results in as little as six (that’s right, it does exactly what it says on the tin, so to speak).
Six Month Smile brace are also manufactured using clear brackets and tooth coloured wires to lessen the visual effect of braces, one of the most common complaints with fixed-metal braces. The unseemly appearance of metal brackets and wires can put many people off wearing braces to straighten their teeth, so this more modern approach is proving to be very popular.
Six Month braces also produce a very predictable result. Unlike some other braces where the final appearance of the teeth may vary, Six Month braces produce very accurate and controllable final results. They also use lower forces and are more hygienic which means they cause less discomfort and long-term damage to the teeth. Possibly most pleasingly, they are also cheaper than most other orthodontic treatments. Dentists in Swindon are on hand to give you more information about Six Month Smile braces at your next appointment.
One of the most exciting developments in orthodontic straightening in the last ten years has been the Six-Month Smile treatment. Offering straighter teeth in an incredible, and you’ve guessed it, six-months. This is a reduction of nearly 75 per cent on the average straightening time for more conventional straightening methods. The Six-Month Smile system also promises reduced levels of discomfort throughout the treatment, a major complaint from other brace wearers.
Six-Month Smile braces are able to achieve these incredible results by focusing more directly on teeth that can be seen when smiling. By using nickel-titanium wires, the brace repositions overcrowded and misaligned teeth. Because of the more focussed approach Six-Month Smile braces are ideally more suitable for patients with minor straightening issues. Some patients may require extractions and temporary metal braces prior to using the Six-Month Smile brace. Alternatively, for patients only requiring the ‘finishing touches’ to their teeth straightening the brace is ideally suited.
The wires used in the braces are tooth coloured and very thin. This makes the braces very discreet. In fact they are hardly noticeable unless standing very close to the patient’s mouth. This makes them ideal for more mature and professional people eager to avoid the stigma attached to fixed metal braces. Six-Month Smile braces are also completely removable, meaning they can be taken out when eating and for important professional or social engagements.
The braces require a ten to fifteen minute appointment each month to tighten the wires. This is a more gradual tightening regime than other braces and is therefore a lot more comfortable. It also means that your Bristol dentist will be able to keep a close eye on the progress of your teeth throughout the straightening process.
If your teeth require the finishing touch straightening power of the Six-Month Smile treatment, make an appointment to see a Bristol dentist and you could achieve the perfect smile you’ve always wanted.
