Hi My name is Maria, I wasn't comfortable with my smile due to one of my teeth that was pushed in.. I was fortunate to find out about the 6 month braces and carried on with the treatment. I couldn't believe how fast the 6month braces moved my tooth back in place. I actually thought it would take more than that to fix my smile. Time went by fast, and now I am more confident about my smile. Thank you Dr. Lee!
Did you know that braces are no longer just for teenagers? Do you have crooked teeth that make you feel less confident? Do you like the idea of invisible trays but don’t think you would wear them? At Esthetic Dentistry, there is another alternative for you.... Powerprox Six Month Braces®
In just 6 months, we can straighten out those crooked or malaligned teeth. Clear brackets are placed on the teeth with a thin wire. Using light force, the wire is changed each month until your teeth are straight.
How are Powerprox Six Month Braces® different from traditional braces? Powerprox Six Month Braces® focuses more on the cosmetic nature of your smile, mostly around the front teeth and not necessarily correcting the "bite."
