Your key questions answered:
- Do 6-month braces work? Patients will notice the difference as six-month smiles improve the position of their teeth, making the smile appear a lot better.
- How much do 6-month braces cost? Our adult orthodontic solutions begin from £2,500, and the prices of our most rapid treatments start from £3,500.
- How long do 6 Month Smiles take? As the name suggests, six-month smile braces often take six months. However, some cases can be completed in as little as 4 months.
Straighten teeth in half the time and half the hassle
- Clear braces for ages 16+: Crooked, spaced or misaligned teeth are corrected using transparent brackets and tooth-coloured wires to achieve the smile you have always dreamed of.
- Invisible aligners: Using one of the world’s most advanced aligner material, 6 Month Smiles are crafted using Zendura FLX that, have exceptional clarity. This means they are barely noticeable close-up.
How the invisible braces work
We can move your teeth easily, comfortably and quickly using state-of-the-art technology.
Using nickel-titanium wires, your visible smile is straightened and altered rather than all your teeth; hence, why this is considered a cosmetic procedure because it is designed to improve aesthetics.
With this treatment, only healthy and straight teeth will be visible when you smile. Therefore this treatment is concerned with how your teeth will look rather than the position of your bite.

YOUR CONSULTATION
In this appointment, the dentist will walk you through everything you need to know about the treatment (cost, timings, methods).
On top of this, the orthodontist will conduct an initial assessment involving X-rays and impressions taken to provide you with a detailed assessment.
This is particularly important as the patient will be painted a picture of how the final results will likely appear and if this fits with their expectations.
YOUR OWN SET OF TAILOR-MADE TRAYS
Once the details have been agreed upon and the dentist recommends this treatment, we will use the impressions of your both upper and lower jaws and photographs of your face to be sent to the lab.
Here, the dental surgeon will custom craft and prepare the custom-made trays.
STARTING YOUR TREATMENT
Once everything is ready, your dentist will fit your customised trays during your next appointment.
Slight discomfort may be felt as new force will be applied to the teeth via the braces.
The dentist will be able to then equip you with tips and advice on how to maintain and look after your oral health during the treatment.
WE’LL SEE YOU EVERY 4-6 WEEKS
Depending on the complexity of your treatment, we will schedule check-up sessions, which will be necessary to evaluate the progress of your treatment and the tightening of the braces if required.
OUR TAILORED APPROACH TO YOUR AFTERCARE
After the treatment has come to an end, we will remove the braces and explain all of your retention options.
We like to consider our patient’s lifestyles to prescribe them appropriate retention methods or devices that will help prevent the teeth from relapsing.

Those opting for the wired brace option can have these fitted within the same day of your first initial consultation.
6 month braces benefits:
- Fast: Treatment is completed faster than any other conventional brace treatment.
- Less painful: As it forces less pressure on the teeth than metal braces, the treatment is more comfortable because it uses only a few teeth.
- Virtually invisible: Braces are designed to match the colour of your natural teeth; this makes them more discreet than metal braces.
Pros and cons compared to other alternative procedures
- Traditional metal braces take a lot longer and can cost patients £2,500 privately.
- Invisalign uses clear aligners instead of tracks and wires, with costs beginning from £1,500 for shorter treatments like Invisalign Go. The system corrects a wide multitude of bite problems and can often be completed within 12-18 months.
- Whilst positioned behind the teeth, Lingual braces are not so discreet and can cost twice as much as regular brace systems.
