At Dental Plus in Mount Maunganui, we understand that for some, the idea of long-term orthodontic treatment can be a barrier to achieving a straighter smile. That's why we offer the Six Month Smiles® accelerated braces system, a product specifically designed to provide rapid results with a focus on cosmetic improvements. The product itself uses clear brackets and tooth-coloured wires, making the braces far less noticeable than traditional metal options. This discreet design is a key appeal, allowing individuals to undergo treatment without feeling self-conscious about their appearance. The system leverages gentle, low forces to move teeth, which often contributes to a more comfortable experience compared to traditional braces. As the name suggests, the core timeframe for Six Month Smiles® is typically around six months. While individual cases may vary slightly, ranging from four to nine months, the focus remains on delivering efficient and accelerated results. This compressed treatment period is achieved by primarily focusing on aligning the teeth that are visible when you smile, rather than making extensive changes to your overall bite. This system is particularly good for adults and older teenagers who are primarily concerned with the aesthetic appearance of their front teeth and desire a quick solution. If you have crowded teeth, gaps, or mild misalignments in the teeth that show when you smile, and you're not looking for major bite correction, Six Month Smiles could be an ideal choice. It offers a balance between the effectiveness of braces and the desire for a shorter, more discreet treatment journey. Why choose Dental Plus in Mount Maunganui for your accelerated smile journey?
