While many teens lament over having to wear braces, many adults really wish they had braces put on as a teen. So many adults with crooked front teeth are tired of covering their mouth when they smile or laugh and have found their overlapping teeth tough to keep clean. But lucky for them, there is a new cosmetic braces solution for adults to straighten their teeth in a very short time span!  Six Month Smiles® is a clear braces system designed to straighten teeth in about 6 months. Six Month Smiles® are effective, safe and affordable.

What are Six Month Smiles Braces?

Six Month Smiles® is a cosmetic braces solution for adults with crooked front teeth. It is a variation on the tried and true metal braces system worn by teens, but because they are made from newly developed Lucid-Lok® clear brackets and tooth-colored wires, they are barely visible. The system is made by Six Month Smiles®, LLC and only dentists who have participated in their training are qualified to participate. Dr. Taylor and Dr. Martin have both completed this training so Martin Taylor patients can receive their Six Month Smiles® from either dentist.

How Do Six Month Smiles® Braces Differ from Conventional Braces?

Although Six Month Smiles follows the same general design of conventional braces, there are some significant differences. As stated, the materials used are almost invisible as opposed to the silver metal brackets and wires used for conventional braces. The other major difference is the length of time for the treatment. Six Month Smiles emphasis is on the cosmetic appearance of the teeth that show when you smile rather than the position of your bite. Because the Six Month Smiles system is not repositioning your bite in anyway, the cosmetic results can be obtained much faster than conventional metal braces.

The Six Month Smiles Advantage

The aspect of Six Month Smiles that makes them more effective than the clear aligners is that they are working 24/7!  Six Month Smiles® are always in place and doing their job. Unlike clear aligners, they do not need to be removed in order to brush your teeth or eat.

How Do I Know if Six Month Smiles is Right For Me?

The best way to know if Six Month Smiles®  is right for you is to make an appointment with Dr. Martin or Dr. Taylor for a consultation. They can answer all your questions and help you decide if this program is your best option for a beautiful smile.
