Six months orthodontics is merely a marketing slogan, there is absolutely nothing new or magical about this. The brackets and wires used are the exact same as those which have been used for years in orthodontics. The only difference is that the practitioner discontinues the treatment after “six months or so! ”

It simply is not possible to achieve the most beautiful smile for the vast majority of patients in six months.

The practitioners who offer “ six months orthodontics” have generally attended a course for a few days only . The courses are sometimes taught by practitioners with no recognised, postgraduate qualifications in orthodontics .
