How can teeth be straightened in only six months?

• More than 3.5 million patients worldwide have been treated with invisalign.
  The number of Invisalign smiles grows daily.

Six months sounds good, but will I have a mouth full of metal for the whole time?

• No! Six Month Smiles uses clear braces that are barely visible to gently straighten your teeth.

How are Six Month Smiles braces more comfortable than regular braces?

• Six Month Smiles uses low force to move teeth gently.

  Many people think that the accelerated braces treatment means simply “tightening” regular braces to get the teeth moving, but that is not true.

  Six Month Smiles utilizes standard orthodontic mechanics, but with an emphasis on the cosmetic appearance of your teeth rather than the position of your bite.

Do Six Month Smiles braces damage the teeth, roots or gums?

• There are no more risks of root damage or other issues than those associated with traditional orthodontics.

  Since the forces used with Six Month Smiles braces are lighter and teeth are seldom extracted, there are actually even fewer risks involved with Six Month Smiles.

Will I have to wear a retainer?

• Yes, as with any teeth-straightening treatment a retainer is necessary to maintain the straighter position of your teeth.

  If you don’t want to wear a removable retainer, you can have a bonded retainer placed. There are a variety of options that you can choose from according to your personal preference and situation.

What's the catch?

• There is no catch. If you are an adult (16 years and older) with crooked or spaced teeth and you’re not looking for a major alteration to your bite, this could be the solution for you!

  Most adults ARE candidates for Six Month Smiles.
