Take Your Pick Of Orthodontic Options

Dr. Hening often prefers to perform orthodontic care before other types of cosmetic dental treatment you may need, as orthodontics can improve the outcome of these other services. However, gone are the days when you had to rely solely on traditional metal braces for your orthodontic treatment. If you’ve always wanted a straighter smile but didn’t want to put up with silver metal braces in your mouth, you’re in the right place.

Junction Creek Family Dentistry offers you two great short-term orthodontics options using the Six Month Smiles system. You’ll love either option because both are so different from what you may think of when orthodontic care comes to mind. Instead of spending time straightening teeth that no one ever sees, treatment focuses only on the teeth that show when you smile. That’s why Six Month Smiles is quicker and less expensive than traditional braces.

Here are your options:

• Standard Six Month Smiles treatment uses clear ceramic brackets and tooth-colored wire to straighten your teeth. Instead of having you deal with unsightly metal brackets, this hardware blends in with your teeth to help you avoid embarrassment in your social and professional interactions.
• Six Month Smiles Invisible Aligners are even more discreet. Instead of using brackets and wires, this treatment uses transparent teeth aligners that fit snugly over your teeth. Over the course of a few months, they will gently move your teeth into their proper positions. Plus, the aligners are very comfortable, with flexible properties that are similar to memory foam.

No matter which orthodontic option you choose, your treatment will begin with taking digital images or making lab models of your teeth. We will then send these to the Six Month Smiles lab, where an orthodontist will review your case and make a digital treatment recommendation. You can rest assured that you’ll receive the best care possible between our experienced team and Six Month Smiles.
