What are Six Month Smiles?

Six Month Smiles is an innovative orthodontic treatment system designed to straighten teeth in approximately six months, significantly faster than traditional braces. It uses clear brackets and tooth-coloured nickel-titanium wires that focus primarily on the visible front teeth, making it a discreet option for adults seeking cosmetic alignment. The treatment is particularly effective for addressing crooked, misaligned, or spaced teeth without requiring comprehensive orthodontic correction of the bite. While results are typically visible within the first few weeks, patients experience less discomfort and gum irritation compared to conventional braces, making Six Month Smiles an increasingly popular choice for those wanting a straighter smile in less time.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Six Month Smiles?


Six Month Smiles is an innovative orthodontic treatment designed to straighten crooked teeth faster and more comfortably than traditional braces. This system specifically targets the teeth visible in your smile, focusing on cosmetic alignment rather than addressing complex bite issues. The treatment uses clear brackets and tooth-coloured wires that blend with your natural teeth, making them less noticeable than conventional metal braces.



Does Six Month Smiles really work?


Yes, Six Month Smiles is highly effective for cosmetic teeth straightening. Patients typically begin noticing changes to their front teeth alignment within the first few weeks after fitting. The treatment is particularly effective for addressing issues such as crowding, gaps, rotations, and misalignments of the teeth that show when you smile. While the average treatment time is six months, individual cases may vary depending on the complexity of your dental alignment needs.



How much does Six Month Smiles cost at London Dental Specialists?


At London Dental Specialists, Six Month Smiles treatment costs approximately £1,750. This comprehensive price includes your free initial consultation with our orthodontist and three sets of Vivera retainers worth £495. We offer flexible payment options, with plans starting from £40 per month to make your treatment more affordable. We recommend scheduling a consultation for a personalised quote based on your specific dental needs.



What is the difference between Invisalign and Six Month Smiles?


The main differences between Invisalign and Six Month Smiles are:



  • Invisalign uses a series of clear, removable aligners, while Six Month Smiles uses fixed clear brackets and tooth-coloured wires

  • Six Month Smiles typically achieves results faster (average 6 months) as it focuses specifically on the front teeth visible when smiling

  • Invisalign can address more complex orthodontic issues including bite problems, while Six Month Smiles is primarily designed for cosmetic alignment

  • Invisalign aligners are removable for eating and cleaning, whereas Six Month Smiles brackets remain fixed throughout treatment



Is Six Month Smiles treatment painful?


Six Month Smiles treatment is generally more comfortable than traditional braces. Patients may experience mild discomfort or pressure for a few days after initial placement and following adjustment appointments. This discomfort typically subsides quickly and can be managed with over-the-counter pain relief if needed. The system uses lower forces to move teeth compared to traditional braces, which contributes to a more comfortable experience with less gum irritation and reduced risk of root damage.



Who is a good candidate for Six Month Smiles?


Ideal candidates for Six Month Smiles are adults and teenagers (16+) with:



  • Crooked, gapped, or misaligned front teeth

  • Primarily cosmetic concerns about their smile

  • Generally good dental health with no significant bite issues

  • Realistic expectations about treatment outcomes

  • The desire for a faster alternative to traditional orthodontic treatment


A consultation at London Dental Specialists will determine if Six Month Smiles is the right solution for your specific dental needs.



How do I care for my teeth during Six Month Smiles treatment?


Proper care during Six Month Smiles treatment includes:



  1. Brushing thoroughly after every meal using a soft-bristled toothbrush

  2. Using interdental brushes or floss threaders to clean between brackets and under wires

  3. Avoiding hard, sticky, or chewy foods that could damage the brackets

  4. Attending all scheduled adjustment appointments

  5. Using any prescribed orthodontic wax to address any bracket irritation

  6. Maintaining regular dental check-ups and cleanings throughout treatment



Will I need to wear retainers after Six Month Smiles treatment?


Yes, wearing retainers after completing Six Month Smiles treatment is essential for maintaining your results. At London Dental Specialists, we provide three sets of Vivera retainers as part of your treatment package. You'll typically need to wear your retainers full-time for the first few months, then transition to nighttime wear. Consistent retainer use prevents teeth from shifting back to their original positions, ensuring your beautiful new smile lasts for years to come.



How do I schedule a Six Month Smiles consultation at London Dental Specialists?


Scheduling a Six Month Smiles consultation at London Dental Specialists is simple. You can book your free initial consultation by calling our office directly, using our online booking system on our website, or sending an email to our patient care team. During your consultation, our specialist orthodontist will examine your teeth, discuss your smile goals, and determine if Six Month Smiles is the right treatment option for you. We'll also explain the treatment process, timeline, and payment options available.
