Six Month Smiles braces are designed to quickly and subtly correct mild to moderate alignment issues with the front teeth. They are a popular choice at Stevenage dental practice Smilecraft, being made from clear and tooth-coloured components and having, as the name suggests, an average treatment time of just half a year.

Many people come to our Stevenage dental clinic wrongly believing that their time for orthodontics has passed them by. Whether they missed out on having treatment in their younger days, perhaps not qualifying under strict NHS criteria, or they had treatment but failed at the retention stage, they think they are lumbered with crooked, crowded, or misaligned front teeth for life.

Furthermore, even those who have heard about adult orthodontic treatment think that it must involve wearing metal braces. Whilst some celebrities can get away with a metal brace as a kind of fashion statement, for your average professional man or woman the thought can be very off-putting.

That’s where Six Month Smiles come in. These cosmetic braces blend in so well with the natural colour of your teeth that the vast majority of people you meet in day-to-day life won’t notice them. Whilst they are not designed to correct major issues with your bite – that’s how your jaws meet together – for primarily cosmetic concerns including gappy, crooked, or crowded teeth – they are an excellent choice.

As with any type of braces, Six Month Smiles require scrupulous dental hygiene. After your braces are fitted you should book an appointment with the hygienist at our Stevenage practice in order to learn how to clean around them properly. You should also brush your teeth after every meal whilst undergoing any type of orthodontic treatment.

When your braces treatment is complete, you will need to wear a retainer. Your dentist will discuss the various retention options we have on offer at Smilecraft in Stevenage, because if one thing’s for sure it’s that you’ll want to keep your beautiful new smile and show it off to everyone.

By choosing these cosmetic braces from our Stevenage dental practice, the smile of your dreams could be just a few months away.

Whatever type is used, braces always bring health as well as aesthetic benefits. At Smilecraft Dental Care in Stevenage, we offer discreet orthodontic treatment to adults, using the popular Six Month Smiles system of cosmetic braces.

When people think of orthodontic treatment, they usually picture metal train-track braces that remain popular with teenagers. Modern appliances offer customisation options, and many teens enjoy decorating their braces with elastics in the colours of their favourite football or rugby team. But it’s not hard to see why these obvious appliances are considered incompatible with a professional adult lifestyle, and can be a significant barrier to treatment.

Six Month Smiles are different. They are made of clear ceramic braces and tooth-coloured nickel-titanium wires, meaning that they blend in well with the natural colour of your teeth so that they are not instantly noticeable in everyday life.

At our Stevenage dental practice we believe in breaking down barriers to treatment so that everyone can enjoy the benefits of straighter teeth, which is why we use these discreet braces.

Six Month Smiles aren’t meant for major correction of issues affection your bite (the way that your jaws meet each other) but for rapid correction of mild to moderate alignment issues affecting the front teeth, these braces are the perfect choice.

Here at Smilecraft Dental Care in Stevenage we find that it is these teeth – the ones on display when you smile – that the majority of adults are concerned about.

No more metal braces

In the 21st Century, metal braces are not the only option for straightening teeth. Whilst they remain popular with children and teenagers, who enjoy the customisation options available with modern metal fixed appliances that enable them to use their brace as a fashion statement.

However, at our Stevenage dental practice, we appreciate that a fixed metal appliance can be a barrier to orthodontic treatment for many adults, because an obvious metal braceis not particularly compatible with a busy professional lifestyle.

Teeth straightening: the benefits

Straightening your teeth can have a positive impact on your body image and self-esteem, but did you know it will also benefit your dental and general health?

So long as you visit your dentist and hygienist regularly and have a good home routine of brushing and flossing, straightening your teeth with cosmetic braces can reduce your risk of tooth decay and gum disease.

Dental decay and gum disease are both leading causes of tooth loss, which can cause serious problems for your diet and your general health. Therefore, teeth straightening is a step in the right direction for your overall health and wellbeing.

Think you know braces? Think again

If, when you hear the word “braces” you get shivers at the thought of obvious metal appliances, you are not alone.
