6-Month Smiles Costs | Dental Treatment Guide


When deciding whether to have a treatment the cost is always an influential factor. Although this is an important consideration as you need to decide whether you can afford the treatment, it is also important to weigh up the cost in relation to the overall outcome.

How much does the 6 Month Smiles treatment cost?

6 Month Smiles is a relatively affordable treatment, especially in comparison to traditional orthodontic procedures. It is estimated that the treatment will cost around £2500 in total. This may seem a lot but this covers all the dental consultations, any dental work that is required prior to starting the procedure and the specially made orthodontic devices that you will wear. This is only a rough estimate and costs will vary according to different dental practices. If you compare this cost to a more intensive orthodontic treatment that will take a greater amount of time and visits to the dentist then this will show that 6 Month Smiles really is a more affordable alternative.

When assessing the cost of the treatment it is important to bear in mind the long term benefits. Changing the appearance of your teeth can significantly alter and improve your overall appearance and confidence. Unsightly dental features can be more easily resolved today and it is no longer necessary to live in discomfort or embarrassment. This is a treatment that can have a large impact without producing huge expenses or difficulties, and the end result does justify the means.

Can I have 6 Month Smiles treatment on the NHS?

Unfortunately this treatment is not available on the NHS and so has to be privately funded. This is because 6 Month Smiles is not a treatment that is necessitated by a medical issue but is due to the individual's desire to improve their dental appearance. In comparison to other NHS funded treatments 6 Month Smiles is not an essential procedure but is motivated by a more cosmetic reason.
