What Is 6-Month Smiles?
6-Month Smiles is a cosmetic braces system designed to correct misaligned front teeth — the ones most visible when you smile — in an average of six months. It uses clear brackets and tooth-colored wires, offering a more discreet and efficient alternative to traditional braces.
6-Month Smiles is ideal for patients with:
- Mild to moderate crowding or spacing
- Crooked front teeth
- Gaps between teeth
- Relapse after previous orthodontic treatment
- Cosmetic misalignment with otherwise healthy bite
It’s a great option for adults and older teens who want faster results without the commitment or appearance of traditional metal braces.
How Do 6-Month Smiles Work?
6-Month Smiles uses low-force, cosmetic-focused mechanics to gently move the teeth that show when you smile — usually the upper and lower front six teeth. Because the goal is cosmetic alignment (not full bite correction), treatment is shorter and more comfortable.
The clear brackets and wires are nearly invisible and custom-fitted to your teeth. We’ll see you regularly for adjustments, and most patients complete treatment in four to nine months depending on their case.

FAQs About 6-Month Smiles
Do 6-Month Smiles really work in six months?
For most cosmetic cases, yes. Treatment typically ranges from 4 to 9 months, depending on how much movement is needed.
Are the braces really invisible?
The brackets are clear and the wires are tooth-colored, making them far less noticeable than traditional braces — especially at a conversational distance.
Is 6-Month Smiles painful?
Most patients experience mild pressure or soreness for a few days after adjustments. The system uses low-force mechanics for a gentler experience.
Can I eat normally with these braces?
Yes, though like traditional braces, you’ll want to avoid sticky or overly hard foods that could dislodge brackets. We’ll provide full care instructions.
What happens after treatment?
After your braces are removed, we’ll fit you for a custom retainer to maintain your new smile and prevent shifting over time.
