Six Month Smiles® in North Austin
It’s no secret that an attractive smile can help make a good impression, boost confidence, and just feels great. Teeth that need to be straightened can keep smiles closed up tight. Fixing them with traditional braces is time-consuming, painful, and unattractive; now there’s a wonderful alternative with Six Month Smiles®!
What Is It?
With Six Month Smiles®, a patient can get the beauty of straight teeth without the pain and hassle of traditional metal braces. It’s a treatment made for adults and older teens who want straight teeth and a beautiful smile faster. There are no unattractive, painful metal brackets and wires to see.
The system uses clear braces with plastic brackets and tooth-colored wires that are virtually undetectable. Take photos without having to hide traditional wires! There’s no cutting or scarring of the gums either like a person might get with metal braces. And, best of all, no painful tightening appointments.
How Does It Work?
The Six Month Smiles® system is different. Instead of having a dentist tighten the wires, the tooth-colored wire is formed to what a patient wants the end result to look like. The wire does the rest, gradually straightening your teeth.
Six Month Smiles® is the only company that allows wearers to use clear aligners along with the plastic buttons and wires. Their invisible aligners are barely visible, made from Zendura®FLX™. Flexible and tooth-shaped, they fit comfortably, no matter what shape the tooth is. Metal brackets are also an option with Six Month Smiles®.
What to Expect
The first step in the process is to take a Panorex X-ray to look at the whole mouth. Next, the dentist will take extremely accurate impressions of the teeth. Dr. Scaff will discuss what goals and expectations a patient has before submission to the lab.
If everything is approved, it usually takes over a week to receive a custom system. A new tray is delivered every week or so, making the process more comfortable.
Six Month Smiles® lives up to their name. Patients can see results in an average of six months, which means a marvelous smile can develop in a remarkably short time!
