How Does Six Month Smiles Work?
Six Month Smiles is an accelerated orthodontic treatment that uses clear or tooth-colored brackets and wires. It gently moves your teeth into correct alignment for a straighter smile. One question people often ask is, “If they work just like traditional braces, how you can be finished with treatment in six months?”
The way Six Month Smiles treatment works is the braces only shift the teeth that are visible when you smile! Your front teeth, which are those that will receive treatment, can move much more quickly than the rest of your teeth. This method of orthodontic treatment allows your teeth to gently and discreet move into the right position, improving the look and functionality of your smile.
