Six Month Smile
Six Month Braces is among our most popular forms of treatment here at the Seapoint Clinic, as its main focus is on the teeth at the front of your mouth, we can help create a healthy, natural looking smile. As Six Month Braces only focuses on the front teeth, it means we don't alter your back teeth or your bite in any degree. It's why Six Month Braces is so popular among people preparing for a big social event such as a wedding or starting a new job. However, if you want to alter your bite or require your back teeth moved, then you may need to instead opt for conventional braces which can take longer depending on the amount of movement necessary.
Six Month Braces are available in both traditional metal and see-through braces. Although the white braces cost slightly more, they are incredibly discreet as they blend in with the natural colour of your tooth. These braces are ideal for people who want to keep their braces as discreet as possible.
We often find that patients who were previously told that their only choice for straight teeth was to get veneers or wear braces over a two year period, meaning people can be put off having much needed orthodontic work at the prospect of wearing braces for such a long time.
I can't believe my teeth are so straight, I didn't really like my top teeth for years. I had huge issues with them and now they're like brand new teeth.

Six Month Braces
By using the latest dental technology, we can safely and quickly move your teeth into their ideal position. We aim to give you a perfectly healthy smile, which is why we only move the teeth that will benefit your smile in the long term. By doing so, we avoid any unnecessary movement to your back teeth.
You'd be surprised by just how many adults, just like you, are now availing of Six Month Braces. More often than not, these people had braces when they were younger but gave up wearing their retainer, meaning their teeth have since shifted out of place. In fact, the vast majority of our braces are being placed on adult patients, the complete opposite of what it was 20 or even 10 years ago.
