Hi, my name is Roxanne. I'm an RDA EF2, and I'm also an orthodontic assistant here at Delgado Dental Group. I work with Dr. Natalie on the Six Month Smiles bracket system.
Six Month Smiles is a fast, guided bracket system that allows us to move patients' teeth in an average of about six months. It's ideal for adult patients because it uses white brackets, and most adults don't want to walk around with metal brackets. I would say about 95% of our patients are adults.
A good candidate for Six Month Smiles is someone who has a little bit of crowding or spacing—nothing too dramatic. If someone is interested in Six Month Smiles, I would advise them to give us a call. We can provide a free consultation, take some photos and a scan, and have Dr. Natalie look at your teeth to see if you'd be a good candidate.
My favorite part about working on Six Month Smiles cases is seeing the patients' reactions when we take the brackets off. Usually, they're very excited and happy with the results—some even cry, which is really nice because you just changed their lives.
