The appearance of your smile is important to your self-esteem and how others view you. However, you suffer from misalignment issues that cause you to feel insecure. You have probably considered orthodontics in the past, but the thought of visible metal wires and brackets will only add to your insecurities. You need a more sophisticated approach. At Cowlitz River Dental, we offer two effective treatments that are virtually invisible. You can get the straight smile you have always wanted with Invisalign or Six Month Smiles in Castle Rock.
What is Invisalign?
Invisalign used a series of custom-made aligners to gradually move your teeth into position. This has quickly become one of the most preferred treatments because the aligners are clear and no wires or brackets are used. As a result, no one will be able to tell that you are wearing them.
You will have to wear the aligners for about 22 hours per day, only taking them out when eating, drinking, or caring for your teeth. You use each one for about 2 weeks, at which point you can switch to the next one in the series. On average, it takes about 12 months to complete your treatment. During this time, you will enjoy a more convenient and hassle-free treatment. In as little as a year, you will have the straight, confident smile you have always wanted.
What is Six Month Smiles?
Six Month Smiles allows you to straighten the alignment of your teeth in half a year. Wires and brackets are used to gently pull the teeth into position. However, there are clear differences between this treatment and traditional braces.
Six Month Smiles uses clear brackets and tooth-colored wires. As a result, it allows them to blend in with your enamel for a discreet treatment so you do not need to feel insecure. They are effective for treating even the most complex alignment issues, which is the perfect alternative if you are not a candidate for Invisalign.
The brackets and wires will apply steady and gentle pressure on your teeth to quickly move them into position. Although the results are fast, it does not cause any added discomfort. It is an effective and efficient alternative to traditional braces.
Which is the Right Choice for Me?
There are benefits to each treatment, but only one may be right for you. For example, if you have bite issues, you may want to consider Invisalign. On the other hand, if you want faster results, Six Month Smiles may be the right option for you.
At Cowlitz River Dental, we want you to feel confident about your choice. After performing an initial consultation, we will discuss your treatment options and help you make the right decision to improve your smile.
If you are ready to gain a confident, straight smile, it is time to schedule your consultation with Cowlitz River Dental. We will improve the cosmetic issues hurting your appearance with Six Month Smiles or Invisalign in Castle Rock.
