It’s amazing how quickly six months passes. Here we are already in summer and to many of us it seems like only a couple of weeks since we were frantically shopping for Christmas presents. Imagine now, how quickly time will fly by if you decide to straighten your teeth with a great system for orthodontics in Stevenage.
At Smilecraft, we know that for many busy adults, time is of the essence and that is why we chose Six Month Smiles as our preferred treatment for orthodontics in Stevenage.
Orthodontics is dentistry’s term for the area of work focussing on improving the look of misaligned teeth, be they crooked, gappy, crowded or tilted in or out.
The most common orthodontic treatment for correcting the alignment of the teeth is the fixed bracket and wire braces. They have been around for several decades and these days, unless you have serious problems to correct, do not need to be the traditional metal ‘train tracks’ braces, which have a reputation for being uncomfortable and a bit too obvious.
This reputation has put many off having braces, especially adults, who are working and do not wish to draw attention to what their dentists are doing for them.
That’s why at Smilecraft, we use Six Months Smiles braces. These are great for adults who have no major issues with their bite, and only need to have their teeth straightened.
How does it work?
In Stevenage, orthodontics from Six Month Smiles work on the same mechanical principles as metal braces. However the brackets are much smaller and made of clear ceramic, and the wire strung between them is tooth-coloured. This way the braces blend into your teeth rather than dominate them. Also, because the aim of the treatment is simply to straighten the teeth, the braces use gentler forces, which is why they are much finer looking.
Six Month Smiles are so-called because that’s how long they take, on average, to straighten your teeth, which means fewer appointments. This also means your treatment can be cheaper than other teeth straightening methods.
