Cosmetic braces such as Six Month Smiles are increasingly in demand with adults who want to straighten their teeth. At Smilecraft in Stevenage<\/a> our skilled dental team have treated scores of patients successfully using Six Month Smiles.<\/p>\n

\"cosmetic-braces\"If you are unhappy with the alignment of your smile, perhaps too embarrassed to smile in photographs or covering your smile with your hand in business meetings or social situations, read on to discover how Six Month Smiles cosmetic braces could change your life. Your journey begins with a consultation here at our Stevenage dental practice. . .<\/p>\n

The problem with regular braces<\/strong><\/p>\n

Braces remain, in many cases, the best way to straighten teeth. They afford maximum control to your dentist or orthodontist over the movement of each tooth, and produce predictable results.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s only one problem with traditional braces, and that is that they are not exactly subtle. Whilst many teenagers enjoy the customisation options available for modern appliances (such as adorning their brace with the colours of their favourite football team) it\u2019s not hard to see why this can be incompatible with a busy professional adult lifestyle.<\/p>\n

Six Month Smiles are different. These cosmetic braces<\/a> comprise tooth-coloured nickel-titanium wires and clear ceramic brackets, which means that they blend in with the natural colour of your teeth, so are not nearly as obvious as their metal cousins.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s more, as the name hints at, the average treatment time with Six Month Smiles is half a year. Some patients at our Stevenage dental practice complete treatment in just three months, and the vast majority of cases are complete in nine months.<\/p>\n

It should be noted that Six Month Smiles are primarily designed for cosmetic correction of the front teeth \u2013 those that show when you smile \u2013 and are not meant to correct major issues with your bite. Your Stevenage dentist will discuss other options if you have substantial bite issues.<\/p>\n

Health benefits<\/strong><\/p>\n

At our Stevenage dental clinic, we are keen to point out the health benefits of Six Month Smile braces. Straighter teeth are easier to keep clean, so you could reduce your risk of gum disease and tooth decay \u2013 with regular visits to your dentist, of course.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
