Luckily, due to the huge amount of demand for alternative treatments, there has been a boom in treatments that can offer many different advantages.<\/p>\nMany adults want to have straighter teeth but are put off by the reputation and look of traditional \u2018train track\u2019 braces commonly worn by teenagers. These types of braces are the most tried and tested method of straightening teeth, but come with disadvantages.<\/p>\n
One of the most common issues people have with traditional braces is how they look when the treatment is underway. They are also difficult to keep clean. Combine these issues with long treatment times (around two years) and you can understand why people are seeking alternatives.<\/p>\n

Cosmetic braces<\/strong><\/p>\n For adults who wish to adjust their teeth for mainly cosmetic reasons, there has been a wave of what are known as cosmetic braces. These types of treatments generally have shorter treatment times, and more subtle appliances but can only achieve cosmetic adjustments.<\/p>\n Practices like Farnham Road Dental Practice<\/strong> offer Six Month Smiles. In Guildford<\/a>, your teeth could be adjusted to perfection in just six months, a huge improvement on traditional braces.<\/p>\n Your treatment with Six Month Smiles is also much more subtle, utilising tooth-coloured wires and brackets. This doesn\u2019t sound like much of a difference, but when the braces are being used, they are hardly noticeable.<\/p>\n How does it work?<\/strong><\/p>\n Six Month Smiles works so fast because the treatment only adjusts the \u2018social six\u2019 \u2013 the front six teeth that are visible when you smile.<\/p>\n Because the treatment doesn\u2019t affect the rear teeth, it can act much faster, getting you results in no time.<\/p>\n One of the main cosmetic complaints we hear from adults is that they would like their teeth to be straighter. Now, this is possible with more modern treatments that have much less effect on your everyday lifestyle.<\/p>\n In the social world, confidence is key. Having a warm and welcoming smile could open many doors in our social lives, love lives and even our careers. So, why wait to get the smile you\u2019ve always dreamt of?<\/p>\n Call for an appointment with us at Farnham Road Dental Practice<\/strong> to begin your journey.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Many adults want to have straighter teeth but are put off by the reputation and look of traditional \u2018train track\u2019 braces commonly worn by teenagers.
