A couple of weeks ago I took a class on 6 Month Smiles and I’m so excited to tell you about this exciting new technology! 6 Month Smiles is a new way to straighten your teeth using tooth-colored braces and wires, so they are barely visible. These are nothing like metal braces.
What’s the catch and why only 6 months?
No catch. This technology focuses on the teeth that show when you smile, and does not make major changes to your bite. If you are an adult with crooked or spaced teeth and you are looking for a conservative and inexpensive way to straighten your teeth, this could work for you.
Any risks of damage to teeth or gums from moving teeth so quickly?
The forces used with 6 Month Smiles braces are actually lighter and teeth are seldom extracted, so there are fewer risks involved with 6 Month Smiles orthodontics. Special nickel titanium wires are used with the primary focus of moving the teeth that show when you smile.
Later this week I will post some before and after photos so you can take a look at some people who have benefited from this remarkable technology!
