Brackets and wires are attached to your teeth. During a serious of dental visits, the dentist gradually tightens the brackets and wires to move your teeth into the proper position.
Because the treatment focuses only on the front teeth that are visible when you smile or laugh, results can be achieved much faster than using other methods.
Anyone over the age of 16 is eligible for Six Month Smiles. It is primarily a cosmetic treatment, so it may be unsuitable for people with more complex orthodontic issues.
First, Dr Amin will take a series of x-rays to determine the current condition and position of your teeth. He will take an impression of your teeth and send it away to have your Six Month Smiles braces produced. When the braces are ready, Dr Amin will bond the brackets to the front surface of your teeth and attach the wires. Throughout your treatment, you will return to the practice to have the wires tightened gradually, pulling your teeth into the desired position.
Once your treatment is finished, and your braces are removed, you will be provided with a retainer to wear. If you would like to find out more about Six Month Smiles, call us on 01474 352 990 or email info@noveldentalgroup.com.
