[Aldridge, 29/05/2017] - The Priory Dental Practice, a dental practice based in Walsall, straightens patients’ teeth with 6 Month Smiles. The short term orthodontic system can straighten teeth in as fast as 6 months for patients aged 16 and older.

System Features
The 6 Month Smiles system is suitable for patients with a misplaced midline, unsightly gaps, misalignment or crooked teeth. The 6 Month Smiles braces The Priory Dental Practice provides have tooth-coloured wires and Lucid-Lok® clear brackets. This discreet design takes into consideration the patient’s aesthetic needs while undergoing orthodontic treatment. The braces use low forces giving patients comfort and removing the risk of root damage.
This system focuses on aligning the front 6 to 8 teeth visible which are often the most visible. Treating selected teeth gives faster results, with the average treatment period ranging from 6 to 9 months.

Treatment Process
The process will start with an assessment if the patient is a suitable candidate for the 6 Month Smiles system. The Priory Dental Practice will take photographs and X-rays of the patient’s teeth and will discuss the estimated timescale and care to be taken by the patient.
The Priory’s orthodontist will attach the braces with dental glue and the patient will be asked to return to the practice every 5 to 6 weeks for check-ups. The orthodontist will also adjust the braces during this time to move the teeth to the desired position. Retainers will then be fitted to ensure that the patients’ teeth do not return to their old position. Patients can choose from a removable appliance that must be worn at night or retainers that will be fitted to the back of the teeth.
The Priory Dental Practice offers other orthodontic treatment. Patients can ask about conventional braces and can choose from metal or ceramic braces. Patients can also opt for a removable appliance that can be used to treat overcrowded upper or lower teeth in an average of 12 weeks.
