If you have an uneven smile, then we could help correct the problem with orthodontics. Instead of relying on a lengthy development time of a year or possibly two, we may offer results in a few months! In today’s blog, your Rowlett, TX, dentist talks about correcting uneven smiles with Six Month Smiles®.
The Causes and Risks of Poor Alignment
How does poor alignment occur? For some, this could be due to the issues with the growth of the jaw or the eruption of the teeth. Losing baby teeth prematurely can alter how permanent teeth erupt to cause poor alignment. Losing teeth in the teen and adult years can also impact alignment, as could the arrival of the wisdom teeth in your late teens and early 20s.
When you have crooked, crowded, and overlapping teeth, this makes it difficult to brush and floss thoroughly, and leaves your smile at a greater risk of cavities, infections, and even periodontal disease! The imbalance in your bite could also lead to painful complications, such as TMJ disorder and even bruxism (teeth grinding). You may also feel confident with your appearance, which impacts your social life and overall quality of life too. But we can help correct your uneven smiles, and do so in a matter of months!
Help With Six Month Smiles®
Our team will begin with a detailed examination of your smile to assess the cause and severity of your alignment concerns. The Six Month Smiles® system provides treatment for more minor cases, or to help shift teeth back if they have been altered since your original orthodontic treatment ended. The process focuses more on the cosmetic aspects, shifting the more front facing teeth to provide a more attractive appearance in a shorter time frame. Sometimes this is done with brackets and wires, often clear brackets and wires for a less visible option. We could discuss aligners to shift the teeth instead. Optimal results should only take a few months, six months or less, and you can feel confident in your smile and enjoy better oral health and bite function too.
If you don’t qualify for Six Month Smiles®, we can discuss traditional braces, less visible lingual braces, or even clear aligner systems that could shift your teeth in a period of a one to two years. If you have any questions about obtaining an even smile in 2026, then reach out to our team today to get started.
