Get A Straight Smile Without The Wait

Crooked teeth and gaps in your smile can be embarrassing, but because you’re an adult, you may not be ready to embrace the idea of wearing braces to correct those flaws. We don’t blame you! That’s why we offer faster, more discreet orthodontic solutions at Junction Creek Family Dentistry.

Dr. Hening understands the dilemma facing hardworking adults with crooked teeth who don’t want to spend the next couple of years with metal brackets and wires in their mouths. So our patients have the luxury of these innovative options that can straighten teeth in months instead of years:

  • Six Month Smiles – Rather than changing the position of every tooth, this treatment focuses only on the social six, which are the front teeth that people see when you smile. The brackets are clear ceramic, and the wires match the color of your teeth. So not only will your orthodontic treatment be less noticeable, but you can also get results in about six months because you have fewer teeth to align.
  • Six Month Smiles Invisible Aligners – This option doesn’t use brackets and wires at all. Instead, we give you clear, removable aligners to wear over your teeth for a few months until you have the straight smile you’ve always wanted!

Don’t wait any longer than you already have to love your smile. Call us today at 970-507-8391 to request a consultation with Dr. Hening for short-term orthodontics in Durango, CO.

Common Questions About Short-Term Orthodontics

What are the short-term orthodontics you provide?

We offer two great ways to straighten your teeth using short-term orthodontics from Six Month Smiles. Their standard treatment uses tooth-colored brackets and wires to help you avoid embarrassment. With Six Month Smiles Invisible Aligners, you’ll enjoy discreet treatment using clear plastic teeth aligners. With either option, you can complete your treatment in months, not years.

How much do short-term orthodontics cost?

The short answer is, “It’s less than you think.” Because your treatment time is much quicker with short-term orthodontics as compared to traditional orthodontics, there are fewer office visits. This results in a lower overall treatment cost. When you come in for your consultation, we’ll cover your individual cost in full detail and answer any questions you have.

Are short-term orthodontics painful?

Because we’re moving teeth with full-grown roots, there is often some discomfort to short-term orthodontic treatment. However, it will be minimal in the skilled hands of Dr. John Hening. You may even be a good candidate for Six Month Smiles Invisible Aligners. You’ll enjoy comfortable treatment courtesy of smooth, metal-free plastic teeth aligners. They fit snugly over your teeth without using any brackets or wires.
