March 1st, 2011
If you look at the history of dentistry in the city of London and how far technology has advanced treatments, we are truly blessed to be living in a golden age of dental procedures that give us the enviable luxury of choice. When it comes to the delicate nature of teeth correction, there is fantastic range of choice out there, to get one that suits you, whatever age you are. One such treatment from the leaders of teeth alignment, the US and aimed more at adults, is the 6- months smile. The hint of how good this treatment is, sits in the title. Most adults are very wary of any lengthy procedures to get their teeth corrected, so something that can restore the confidence to their smile in 6 months is going to be something they’d consider. Your dentist will assess your suitability for the programme with photographs and x-rays and then send them ‘across the pond’ where your aligner will be tailor made for you. It’s a very simple and unobtrusive brace when it is finally fitted to your teeth. Tiny, tooth coloured brackets are attached to your teeth with an adjustable wire that is attached to the teeth at the back of the mouth. As your teeth move, your dentist will adjust the tension of the wire. Within 6 months, the treatment is over with and you can get back into the social ball game with a new smile and a renewed confidence, and it comes in at a snip compared to other treatments on the market.
Smiling in central London
November 16th, 2010
As in central London, Americans live a fast and hectic lifestyle in the cities, and with regards to dental ‘fixes’, probably explains why some of the more faster and innovative ideas behind dental treatment come from there. Such a device is called the 6-month smile. It’s an aligning system aimed at adults to correct most orthodontic problems, such as aligning crooked teeth and filling gaps. Most adults are wary of starting a long course of teeth alignment during mid-life, so this would be the ideal quick-fix they require. Once this treatment is chosen, the teeth will be fitted with a number of tiny, white brackets connected by wires. A visit to the dentist will be required each month to monitor the movement and to reset the tension of the wire to maintain the pressure on the teeth. Once the course is complete and because of the speed of the procedure, a retainer should be worn for a short while after to prevent the teeth moving back again. The results are as good as any other aligner and are priced around £2500.
Super-fast teeth straightening with Six Month Smile from London W1 dentist
September 25th, 2010
With the improvements in modern dental technology it is now possible to straighten teeth in as little as six months using new straighteners and braces. In the past, old style fixed metal braces could take up to three years to work effectively. This is along time, especially if you are a teenager in a difficult emotional part of your life.
One brace that is now offering this new faster type of straightening is the Six Month Smile. Originally pioneered in the US, the Six Month Smile brace is finally making its way across the UK, revolutionising the way teeth are straightened. Six Month Smile braces are very safe and reliable and not only shorten the timescale of braces but also significantly reduce the impact they have on the teeth by using less force and modern materials.
Many people who need to have their teeth straightened are often reluctant to do so because of the effect of braces. They can be very uncomfortable and in some cases even painful, especially after tightening appointments. And let’s face it, they don’t exactly look great either. Six Month braces seem to address all these questions and provide the answers. Not only are they far mores discreet using smaller less noticeable wires, but they also use wires and brackets that are tooth coloured so that they are less visible on the mouth.
Six Month smile braces are able to achieve such stunningly fast results because they focus mainly on the teeth that show when you smile. This means that the treatment is more concentrated on the teeth at the front. This may mean that the Six Month Smile brace is not suitable for all patients but a visit to your London W1 dentist will be able to determine this very quickly.
Quicker and better straightening with Six Month Smile from Central London dentist
August 18th, 2010
When it comes to dental health and dental treatments, the US is always way ahead of the rest of the world. They pioneer the latest treatments and invest millions in the latest innovation. But the UK is close behind and frequently looking across the Atlantic for the next big thing in dental treatment. This is how we come to know about the latest orthodontic treatment that has been very successful in the US.
The Six Month Smile brace is a new system that allows for effective straightening of the teeth without the discomfort and pain associated with traditional braces. In a world where straighter teeth is becoming a more important quality, a system that delivers straighter teeth without the drawbacks is very important and this is the main reason for the success of the Six Month Smile.
The other major advantage of the Six Month is that treatment only lasts an average of six months, hence the clever name. This is on average about 75 per cent faster than the old style braces, which can make a significant difference to people’s lives, especially for younger patients not so keen on the idea of braces.
The treatment is also more discreet, using tooth-coloured wires and clear plastic brackets to minimise the aesthetic impact of the brace. Although there may be some initial discomfort when the brace has just been fitted, common to all orthodontic treatments, the Six Month is general much more comfortable than other braces and requires fewer check up appointments. A fifteen-minute appointment with a Central London dentist every five to six weeks is all that is needed during the course of treatment.

Straighter teeth the easy way with Six Month Smile from London dentist
July 12th, 2010
Orthodontics, the process of artificially straightening the teeth, can have a really dramatic effect on the appearance of the smile and can also improve profile and the shape of the face. There are many types of brace available to patients depending on their individual needs. Traditional metal braces are often not favoured by patients because they have a reputation for being slightly uncomfortable, ugly and treatment can last for many years. This can be as long as three years, which for a teenager or younger patient is a very long time indeed.
One of the newest braces on the market is the Six Month Smile. As you can probably tell from the clever name, these braces aim to straighten teeth in just six months. Six Month braces are made in the US and have become very popular with the youth market over there because they offer such a speedy treatment time. The braces have also been specially designed to be very discreet in order to limit the visual impact of the brace. Another reason why they have become very popular with the teenage market in the states and a similar pattern is emerging in the UK. The wires and brackets used by the brace are tooth coloured or made from clear plastic, which reduces the impact often made by metal wires and brackets in traditional braces.
Another major advantage of Six Month Smile braces is that they require fewer tightening appointments that are often painful and unpleasant. They also allow London dentist to make a more accurate post-treatment prediction, as the results promised by the Six Month are very consistent. Ask your dentist for more information about the Six Month Smile brace and you could experience straighter teeth for yourself without all the fuss, pain and discomfort of metal braces.

Look after your smile with braces from Central London dentist
May 11th, 2010
Braces, also known as orthodontic braces, are devices used to straighten teeth that are suffering from crowding, spacing and bite issues. They are very often used in conjunction with other orthodontic treatments such as palate expanders, to produce a more aesthetically pleasing appearance of the teeth. Braces are usually used on teenagers and young adults, as this is when the teeth are the easiest to manipulate, but braces can still be used to treat adult patients.
Braces have been commonly used to straighten teeth for over a hundred years but as you might imagine, modern treatments are slightly more effective and less intrusive than the braces of a hundred, fifty or even twenty years ago. Many developments have been made in brace technology in the last ten years that have improved the effectiveness, time and quality of treatment.
Modern treatments such as the Six Month Smile, Damon and Invisalign braces have addressed many of the concerns and complaints patients had against the old style fixed metal brace (commonly called ‘train tracks’). This includes the size and style of traditional braces and, perhaps most importantly, the length of treatment. More modern braces are capable of reducing treatment times by as much as 75 per cent in some cases.
If you or your child is considering braces to straighten misaligned teeth then make an appointment with a Central London dentist to learn more about the new options available in the world of brace technology. Your smile is one the most important things you have so looking after it and being comfortable with it are very important.

The six month smile by a City of London dentist
February 16th, 2010
The six month smile isn’t what it appears to be at first glance, it isn’t a smile that lasts for six months. It is a method giving conscious people a smile they have always wanted, and in only six months. It isn’t recommended for most people under 16 years old, but it has become extremely popular with adults of all ages. Most of us suffer in silence at having badly aligned teeth or gaps, we constantly avoid eye contact with people, and in extreme cases we even cover our mouths when chatting. That is now all in the past with the methods that have been developed to re-align our misshapen teeth in just six months, and less in some cases. The treatment uses an almost invisible brace that works on educating the teeth; it does this by guiding the crooked and gapped teeth into alignment. The success rate is quite spectacular say a City of London dentist and it is becoming increasingly more favourable with career adults. The method that is most popular is the Invisalign system which uses a brace that the patient has complete control over, the device is renewed every two weeks and allows the patient to remove it daily for cleaning teeth, eating and drinking. This is a God send for many career people in sales who need to be able to socialise and network without the appearance of a visible conventional metal brace. The device works the same as a common brace in that it pulls and pushes the teeth into the desired alignment. It does need the patient to be much disciplined though and the more it is worn each day, the quicker and better the results.
There are a number of options for those who are concerned about the alignment of their teeth. The traditional brace has been the mainstay of such treatment for many years but there are also a number of newer procedures on the market now too. The reasons for correcting crooked or misaligned teeth are twofold. Many people are simply unhappy with the way their smile looks if it is not perfectly straight. There is also the consideration that a misaligned bite can be a contributing factor in patients grinding their teeth in their sleep.
Are you one of the millions of people that stifle laughs or are constantly trying to cover your mouth when you smile because you are embarrassed of your teeth? Many adults are unhappy with the appearance of their teeth but can’t face the prospect of wearing ugly fixed-metal braces for months or years on end. Now, a revolutionary new treatment is available called
