Whether you want to prepare your smile for a special event such as your wedding or school reunion, or just want to take it upon yourself to improve the way your smile looks, Dr. Spilkia offers a number of orthodontic treatments that are fast and effective. One such treatment includes Six Month Smiles.
Similar to traditional orthodontics, Six Month Smiles uses brackets and wires to adjust teeth into more proper alignment. However, these brackets and wires are tooth-colored, white and clear in order to be less noticeable when a patient smiles, talks, and laughs as they're undergoing treatment. Additionally, Six Month Smiles focuses on the teeth that show in your smile. It is not used to realign bites, so it is faster due to the fact that it is a technique aimed at treating the cosmetic zone in Adult smiles.
Six Month Smiles can be used to cosmetically change the appearance of a smile. Dr. Spilkia of David Spilkia Family and Cosmetic Dentistry can utilize Six Month Smiles to focus on the cosmetics of the anterior teeth. Teeth that are crowded, rotated, or overlapping can be moved to more desirable positioning, and teeth with gaps and spaces can be brought together to improve the look of the smile. Treatment time averages out at about six months, hence the name of the treatment itself!
Many adults enjoy Six Month Smiles. It is faster than Invisalign, and often very affordable in comparison to other treatment alternatives. Adults who have always wanted to change their smile, or whose parents were unable to afford them the opportunity to get their teeth straightened as children, will often benefit from Six Month Smiles. Now that the adults are responsible for themselves and are concerned about the appearance of their smile, they will take it upon themselves to undergo treatment. Thanks to the short treatment time, patients are often not concerned about wearing the orthodontia as it is not obtrusive or highly visible as conventional braces. The negative associations with traditional braces are not a problem when it comes to Six Month Smiles, or other "clear alternatives" such as Invisalign orthodontics.
