Patients in Denton Can Get a Brand New Smile in Just Six Months

Naturally, we would all like a perfect smile to boost our confidence and improve our quality of life. However, many people have reservations on regular orthodontic treatments, such as the metal ‘train track’ braces, that may be uncomfortable, unsightly and very slow to work, resulting in up to three years of misery and embarrassment in some people. Now, with revolutionary new breakthroughs, it is simple, quick and discreet to achieve that perfect smile with ‘Six Month Smiles’.

How does Six Month Smiles differ?

Six Month Smiles braces differ drastically from traditional orthodontic treatments; they are practically invisible so discretion is available for the patient. They are smooth and comfortable, which is appealing for anyone apprehensive of having a mouth full of metal. Unlike other clear aligners on the market – such as Invisalign and Simpli5 – these are attached with wires and brackets, which means you do not have to keep altering their position if they come loose, or keep removing them and putting them back in.

How does it work?

Your dentist will make a mould of your teeth to allow a 3D model to be crafted. Using this model, two trays are designed specifically for the alignment and structure of your teeth. These are then attached with dentist adhesive and wires (don’t worry, these are the colour of your teeth, so are barely noticeable too) to apply the right amount of pressure that will gradually rid you of your oral imperfections.

So, if you think Six Month Smiles might be for you, consult the team at Mossley Dental Care near Denton for a no obligation consultation. Your dentist appreciates that there are now a number of different techniques on the market to offer you your perfect smile, so can give you the best advice to suit your teeth.

Patients From Denton Ask Who Are Six Month Smiles Suitable For?

An Overview

Six Month Smiles is a modern treatment designed to fix imperfections in the alignment of the visible teeth. Crooked or overlapping teeth can be quickly altered and nobody but the patient need know! After a mould of your teeth is taken by your dentist, custom trays are crafted to suit your teeth. These are thin and clear to make the treatment basically invisible. The trays are attached with dentist adhesive and teeth-coloured wires and brackets for just the right amount of pressure to abolish your imperfections. With monthly check-ups and alterations, the treatment – as the name suggests – typically lasts around six months, though this may vary from four to nine months.

So, who are they suitable for?

Six Month Smiles are suitable for most people that want to alter the visible teeth at the front of their mouth. However, there are some key aspects to consider and consult your dentist about as to whether they are suitable for you:

  • Age: Six Month Smiles are suitable for people of any age who have developed their permanent teeth, though it is more popular in older patients.
  • Extent of work needed: Six Month Smiles are only suited to correcting minor problems; they cannot change the ‘bite’ of your teeth, so if you have more serious misalignment problems, other treatments may be more suited for you.
  • Speed & Pain: Though they work much faster than ordinary braces, they are no more painful; any discomfort should be gone after the first 7-10 days, so don’t worry about half a year of toothache!

Patients near Rochdale are Transforming Their Smiles with a Smile Makeover

For many people their smile is one of the most important aspects of their appearance. This is mainly because everyone can see it, and everyone is required to smile at some point in their lives. But if your smile isn’t up to scratch you can now transform your smile with a smile makeover in order to help you feel confident when smiling.

A smile makeover involves a number of different procedures you can undergo to help your smile reach its full potential. You may only need one procedure to help you gain a perfect smile or you can choose a combination of as many of treatments as you like. So here is what is on offer:

  1. Teeth whitening – This is the most popular option amongst patients near Rochdale and throughout the UK. The treatment is conducted by either applying gel to your teeth or using lasers to help brighten that smile of yours.
  2. Filling Replacements – Have your silver fillings removed and replaced with a more natural looking tooth coloured filling.
  3. Dental Veneers – You can choose between either a porcelain veneer or a composite resin one. Dental veneers involve tooth coloured shell, which are attached to the surface of the existing tooth to help change its colour, shape, size and overall appearance.
  4. Dental Implants – If you are missing teeth or have gaps between teeth these are a great option for you and a better alternative to bridges, dentures and crowns.
  5. Teeth Straightening – For this treatment instead of the traditional fixed braces a clear, removable aligner called Invisalign is used to help move your teeth closer together and straighten them out.

There are also a number of other procedures you can have such as dentures, crowns, bridges and bonding, which are available for all patients near Rochdale and throughout the UK.

Rejuvenating Smiles with a Smile Makeover for Patients from Denton

The French cultural theorist Jean Baudrillard once remarked that ‘Americans may have no identity, but they do have wonderful teeth.’ Contrastingly, terrible teeth seem to be embedded in the outsider’s view of British identity. In the modern age, however, an unsatisfying smile need not be part of anyone’s cultural baggage and a smile makeover may be one way of combating any unfortunate stigmas.

What is a smile makeover?

A smile makeover is an umbrella term encompassing various forms of treatment, and can mean different things to different people. One person may want a full Hollywood smile, another may simply want teeth whitening and their amalgam fillings replaced with composite material. What unites these forms of treatment is that they are all centred around cosmetic improvement.

Initial assessment

Before any treatment or plans of treatment are considered, a dentist will discuss any issues you have with your smile and an initial examination will take place. Following this, relevant treatment options will then be discussed.

Forms of treatment available

There are several, ranging from teeth whitening to dental implants. One form of treatment we at Mossley Dental Care near Denton find particularly effective are porcelain veneers. Veneers are, for teeth, what false nails are fingers: They are wafer thin shells of material which are bonded to the teeth. They can cover up a variety of ornamental ailments, including: Broken, damaged, discoloured and, to an extent, crooked teeth. They can also help cover up gaps between teeth. Veneers can be used to improve the look of a single tooth or the whole of your mouth.

Talk to us

Numerous treatments are available, and the whole purpose of a smile makeover is to give you the smile you desire. The price of a smile makeover can vary drastically. Porcelain Veneers, for example, can cost between £300 and £1500, but a more intensive smile reconstruction can be upward of £20,000. Book a consultation and we will guide you through all of the options available to you.

Patients from Stalybridge choose popular smile makeover treatments

A number of options are available for patients in need of smile makeover treatment. Whether the issue you have is to do with gaps or crooked teeth, or simply overly stained teeth, there is sure to be a cosmetic dental solution that is right for you.

The main methods of smile makeovers include veneers, tooth whitening, invisible braces and dental implants. Without a doubt the most versatile option is porcelain veneers, which can be used to cover chips, cracks, crooked teeth, gaps in teeth and severe staining.

Tooth whitening has become very popular in recent years, with film stars and celebrities setting the trend. This is a perfect option if you are happy with the shape of your teeth but simply want them to appear whiter and brighter. In most cases a single session can make your smile up to 7 shades brighter.

Invisible braces are an option if the misalignment of the teeth is too severe to be covered up by veneers. This can be done via rear fitting braces or clear plastic aligners. Either way the outcome is the same; the average time to complete a treatment is around 12-24 months.

Dental implants can be used when a tooth is either missing or has to be completely removed. The benefit of having an implant is not just about aesthetics, as gum recession and bone loss are common issues of missing teeth that can be avoided with this treatment.

In order to work out the best solution you will need to have a discussion with a dentist. Patients from Stalybridge and surrounding areas are welcome to visit Mossley Dental Care to discuss treatment options. You can highlight what you want changed and we can provide the best options available.

A Smile Makeover in Audenshaw is The Sure Way To Brighten Your Day

What is a smile makeover?

The latest research indicates that the majority of people are worried about the effect their smile can have on first impressions; whether this is at a job interview, on a date or simply meeting new people. A smile makeover is one of a number of combined cosmetic treatments which can help to give you the smile you deserve.

What is involved in a smile makeover and what complaints can it treat?

That depends entirely on the individual having the smile makeover treatment. Each smile makeover is tailored to suit the person that it is undergoing the treatment, meaning that each solution is unique to the individual.

A smile makeover can include a number of individual treatments which combine to give the most pleasing and effective results. This can include porcelain veneers, which can repair the shape and natural whiteness of damaged teeth, Invisalign braces, which straighten out crooked teeth, dental implants to substitute absent teeth and orthodontics, which can close unsightly gaps between the teeth.

A smile makeover is not limited to these procedures. Depending on the individual it can also include treatments such as laser gum contouring, in order to take away surplus gum which causes small looking teeth or a “gummy” smile. You can even have Botox to diminish wrinkles caused by injury or ageing – whatever is necessary to give you the best results possible.

Is a smile makeover painful?

Not at all. All smile makeover treatments are delivered using completely pain-free methods. Your Audenshaw dentist will also discuss the sensations that you can expect to feel during treatment, ensuring that you have total peace of mind.

How much do smile makeovers cost?

As each smile makeover is completely tailored to the individual, the costs can vary. However, many people find that they can be surprisingly cheap – those interested in improving both their smile and confidence should make an appointment, in order to establish the most suitable treatment for that perfect smile.
