Here at Wimbledon Dental Care, we have been serving the community for more than 60 years. For the last two decades, principal dentist Dr Kultej Sihra has been guiding us through the changing landscape of technological advances and patient care.
One way we aim to serve our patients is through using the latest dental technology to provide simple and effective ways to brighter smiles.
Straighter smiles
Do you feel self-conscious about your smile? Do you hold back from smiling or laughing in social or professional situations because of the way your teeth look? If so, you aren’t alone. We know that many of our adult patients feel self-conscious about their smile and we are always looking for ways to help create happier, healthier smiles in Wimbledon. Six Month Smiles is one popular treatment that helps to align the front teeth quickly and easily.
Working on the ‘social six’ teeth that show when you smile, Six Month Smiles in Wimbledon are discreet braces made from tooth-coloured wires and brackets. This means they are almost invisible so have minimum impact on your social and professional life. The braces are custom-made from photos and impressions, so fit your teeth exactly.
As well as being more discreet and quicker than traditional metal braces, Six Month Smiles are also more comfortable, as they use a much milder force to move the teeth.
Is it right for me?
Come in for a consultation to see if Six Month Smiles in Wimbledon will work for you. It isn’t a suitable treatment for everyone, and if you need more extensive orthodontic work, we can refer you to a specialist.
The treatment takes between four and nine months, with results typically in six, hence the name. If you do go ahead with the treatment, you will need to come in to see us for a check-up every four to five weeks in case we need to adjust the braces.
After your Six Month Smiles treatment is complete, we can also offer you an optional mini smile makeover as a follow up – for example, teeth whitening and repair of any cracks or chips – to give you a smile you can feel truly confident in.
