Six Month Smiles
Do you want to make a big change to your smile, but haven’t got time to hang about? While standard braces can take up to two years to create the perfect smile, Six Month Smiles braces can gently nudge teeth back where they belong – without the need for veneers or crowns – in just six months.
Blink and you’ll miss it
The beauty of Six Month Smiles braces is that they not only work quickly, but they are barely noticeable. With clear brackets and tooth-coloured wires, the only thing your friends and family will be focusing on, is your stunning smile.
The secret to this system is that it focuses on correcting the teeth that are visible when you smile, rather than changing your whole mouth. Maximum impact, minimum disruption to your life, without the discomfort, hassle or ugliness of traditional braces.

FAQs
Are Six Month Smiles right for me?
Six Month Smiles braces are ideal for people with crooked teeth, small gaps or mild overcrowding, as the treatment focuses on your front teeth rather than your whole mouth. It’s perfect if you’d like to see a big change in a short amount of time.
How do Six Month Smiles work?
Once you’ve had a consultation to discuss your options and make sure Six Month Smiles are right for you, we’ll schedule an appointment to fit your braces. We’ll start by cleaning and preparing your teeth and then placing the brackets directly onto your teeth. Once these have set, we’ll then insert the wire along the brackets. The wire places a gentle pressure on your teeth, helping to nudge them back in place and give you a winning smile.
It takes just one appointment to prepare and fit your braces. However, to maximise your results, we recommend visiting us every 4-5 weeks to have your braces adjusted.
How can it only take six months to straighten adult teeth?
The Six Month Smiles technique employs the latest technology and techniques in dentistry to move your teeth quickly and safely with clear adult braces. The key components of the treatment are the use of unique, clear braces and a primary focus of moving the teeth that show when you smile.
Do they hurt?
It generally takes three to five days to get used to the braces and you may feel some mild discomfort. However, this can be treated with mild painkillers, and we’ll also provide you with a special wax to relieve any rubbing on the inside of your mouth caused by the brackets.
Do I need to change my lifestyle?
You’ll have to brush your teeth thoroughly and carefully while wearing your braces, and also avoid some foods, but we’ll discuss this with you in detail and answer any concerns you may have.
Do Six Month Smiles braces damage the teeth, roots, or gums?
As Six Month Smiles use light forces that apply gentle pressure onto your teeth, teeth are very rarely damaged, there are fewer risks involved than other tooth straightening treatments.
