Is decalcification common with Six Month Smiles and if so, how do I avoid it?

November 28th, 2011
Q.

hi there, iam considering six month braces and iam told my treatment will be the full six months. iam really worried about declarification (i think thats how its spelt) on my teeth can this take place with the brace only being on six months?. And if it did can it be reversed?. Id hate to have perfect straight teeth with lots of discolouration. Anything i can do to prevent this? is it common in your patients who have had this treatment?. Thanks in advance.

How do Six Month Smiles work and are they expensive?

November 28th, 2011
Q.

hi Dr Maini ive looked at your profile and can see that you are the man I need to talk to about six month smiles. aside from the fact that they rectify your teeth how exactly do they work? do they go on like normal braces or what? my sister used to have braces and she hated them- I hated them for her they looked a mess and she had them for about 2 and a half years so naturally the idea of having them on for six months seems appealing to myself. also what is the price difference when it comes to six month smiles when compared with traditional braces on average? if they are massively expensive can I pay for them in instalment type methods?

Can Six Month Smiles straighten my crooked, gapped teeth?

November 17th, 2011
Q.

Helo Dr Anoop. Ihave looked both at your profile and your website ad can see that one of your specialities is the six month smile treatment. I would like to know more about the six month smile treatment if this is possible. I have gaps in my teeth- these are not big and I think they will be smaller if my other crooked teeth are pulled back into shape, I will also need tooth whitening treatment as no matter ho much I brush my right upper canine it will not come white and is a slightly different shade to the rest of my teeth. based on this limited information how much do you think treatment will cost and so you think there will be any other implications that I will need to be aware of when looking into having this treatment?

I’m considering Invisalign and Six Month Smiles but have been warned against any brace treatment. What should I do?

November 2nd, 2011
Q.

I am 54 years old. I am considering invisalign and Six Month Smiles treatments. I have one front tooth that protudes and two gaps between my top teeth as my one front tooth has moved further and further forward. (I had this corrected when younger but gradually moved back). My concern is a good friend who is a dentist has strongly advised me against having any treatment. This has given me cause for concern. I would appreciate your views on adults of my age embarking on orthodontist treatment.

October 27th, 2011
Q.

Hi Iam wondering if you can help me Iam considering getting the six month smile brace as my front teeth are starting to cross due to not being told to wear my retainer as a child.

I need 3/4 teeth moving, will six month smiles be good enough and can I spread the cost?

October 19th, 2011
Q.

Hi,
I am in my forties and have crooked front top teeth which I really want sorted out. I am limited by time as I work abroad on 6/7 month contracts and I have seen the 6 month smile option which seems attractive. Can I pay monthly for this sort of treatment? I am in London from November for a few months. I only need 3/4 teeth moving to straighten them as I have a small gap they can move into. Are there any other options for me? Thank you

I had a tooth put back in after it was knocked out, would I be able to get braces?

July 11th, 2011
Q.

hi

I recently suffered an accident where my tooth was knocked out, but as it came out at the root i was able to have it placed back in my mouth by a dentist. That was 4 months a go and the tooth feels secure and i just wondered would I be ok to have braces fitted to a tooth like that? I would like the 6 month smiles fitted as they seem both discreet and effective, would i be ok to have this brace?

thanks for your time

What type of braces would be suited to my narrow arch and two front teeth that stick out?

July 8th, 2011
Q.

Hello doctor,

My doctor tells me that I have a narrow arch on my top jaw and i have always noticed that my smile is quite narrow and ‘rattish’ This isn’t helped by my two sticky out front teeth which have also bugged me all my life. I now have the money to spend on decent braces and a good smile for the first time in my life, but would obviously like to make an informed decision about the braces I choose. Which, in your opinion would be best suited to my condition?

thank you for reading my message and any help you can give
