Six Month Smiles
Straight teeth used to mean metal braces and a commitment of years to orthodontic appointments and painful adjustments. However, there is an alternative for those who desire straight teeth and don't need to correct their bite. Six Month Smiles is a cosmetic braces treatment used by Dr. Firshein at Manhattan Beach Dental to straighten teeth in months rather than years. Cosmetic braces differ from traditional metal braces in that clear brackets and tooth-colored wires are used. Because of this, during the treatment, most people won't even know you have braces. And, Six Month Smiles uses low force to move the teeth that show when you smile, so that your results occur quickly and just where you need them to. Cosmetic braces can correct crooked, crowded or spaced teeth in four to nine months, but the average treatment time is just six months and is generally less expensive than traditional braces, veneers or aligner therapy. Ask Dr. Firshein if you are a good candidate for Six Month Smiles. Most adults are!
