How does Six Month Smiles Work?

How do six month smiles work?This system of cosmetic braces achieves results quickly by using the same predictable mechanisms as regular braces, including brackets and wires. However, all appliances in Six Month Smiles treatment are completely tooth-colored; your braces will not be a distracting part of your appearance, like silver appliances can be.

Six Month Smiles shortens treatment time by only moving visible teeth in your smile line. While full, traditional braces are applied to realign bite and all teeth to promote better function and health, our cosmetic braces realign visible teeth to meet aesthetic goals, so your treatment time is a fraction of what it would be with traditional orthodontics.

Six Month Smiles vs. Tray-Based Clear Braces

Clear, removable braces are a popular treatment among teens and adults who are concerned about the way their smiles will look while undergoing care. However, the range of alignment problems that removable aligners can fix is limited to mild cases of teeth overlap, gaps, and rotation. Patients using this system must also be diligent about wearing their aligners; removing them too frequently can prolong treatment time.

In comparison, Six Month Smiles is:

• Predictable
• More versatile
• Tooth-colored and discreet
• Fast

As Six Month Smiles still utilizes brackets and wires affixed to teeth, it can correct more complex instances of crowded and twisted teeth that tray-based orthodontics cannot. Six Month Smiles offers the best combination of dependable treatment with aesthetic appeal.

Testimonials

Dr. Pescastore,

I just had to take a minute to let you know how much me and my family appreciate everything you have done for us. When we met in 2001 I was honestly anxious about the work I needed to have done. I was nervous about the results and also about the potential pain it might take to achieve the smile I wanted. You were so thorough in your evaluation of my extensive dental history and so clear in your explanation of the procedures required that I felt confident to take your recommendations and trust my smile to you. I have never regretted that decision. I am so grateful for the way you and your wonderful staff made every appointment as easy and comfortable as it could possibly have been. I was always happy to be going there knowing I would be treated so well and love the results. I still feel the same way, and look forward to my appointments with you and your caring staff. I really enjoy the spa like feeling and always leave there more relaxed than when I arrived. My friends are always surprised to learn that I look forward to my dentist appointments as they are lamenting about theirs.

I am especially grateful for the way you have treated my daughters. They too had many dentists before you and were nervous about going to the dentist. Thanks to you and Stacey and the rest of your wonderful staff they now share my feeling about going to the dentist and are happy to be there. Brooke is so afraid of needles that even at seventeen years old she still cries if she thinks she might get a shot at the doctors office. She was very nervous before her first appointment with you, in spite of mine and her sisters assurance that it really wouldn't hurt. Thank you for proving us right. Now even Brooke is not afraid to go to the dentist. I also want you to know how grateful I am for the emergency care you gave Sadie when she chipped her front tooth. I really appreciate you changing your own plans for the day to help her. She was so upset about the way her tooth looked that she cried all the way to your office. She, like me, left your office that day feeling great about herself and her smile. You have really made a positive difference in our lives and we are all so grateful to you for it. We all look forward to seeing you and your great team for our future dental needs.

With Great Respect and Many Thanks,

Pennie Gaddis

I look back at old photographs and realize I spent years hiding teeth. I had braces in my 30s and made the mistake of having my orthodontist apply veneers to my discolored, misshapen teeth. I was his first veneers patient, and I learned that when you're having cosmetic dentistry done, you should have a cosmetic dentist do it. When I decided to have those veneers replaced, I found an expert Dr. Pescatore. In fact, it was just a few weeks before my wedding that I asked Dr. Pescatore to do my smile makeover. I trusted him completely and knew from my first appointment that I was in good hands. He impressed me with his concern that my veneers look natural, and they do. My smile is huge in my wedding pictures, not only because I had a new husband but also because I had fabulous new teeth! I'm grateful to Dr. Pescatore and his caring, attentive staff for what they did for me. I finally have the smile I'd always wanted.
