Yeah get that consult. Make sure you are clear on what your goal is for the final result and the ortho should be able to determine if that can be accomplished with six month braces.

Dr Lagstein is a wonderful doctor.
Dr. Bob Perri is also a fantastic doctor in the NYC area.

Both have been trained with Poweprox Six Month Braces and get wonderful results.

FWIW, PPSMB pre-dates Six Month Smile -- that was started by a former student of mine)

I suggest you obtain a consultation from either or both of them and discuss your treatment goals.

I do know that Bob Perri has extensive orthodontic traditional orthodontic experience as well.

I bumped on to this thread and I am very interested!

I don´t have any bite issues, I just need my `social six`aligned (again)

For me the (set?) time frame sounds very attractive!

One question though...Is this (SMB) only available in the united states?Or also in Europe?

Do you know if Dr. Lagstein and Dr. Perri offer the cosmetic work that you do as well? That is veneers to enhance or add to treatment?

What is the name of your former student that created Six Month Smile? Just curious.

Sorry - one more question. You mention Dr. Bob Perri. Do you mean Dr Robert Perri who practices with his wife Dr. Linda Malorano at Emerson Family Dental in Emerson NJ? Or are you referring to another Dr. Bob Perri?

Just want to be sure I look into consulting with the right doctor.

Thanks!

There are many doctors around the world providing this service.
What country do you live in? England and Ireland are well represented, but there are dotors in other countries of course.

It isnt a set time but 6 months is the average treatment time. SOme cases are 3 months some are 9 but again the average is 6.

Okay thanks - because Dr. Perri makes no mension of Poweprox Six Month Braces on his website.

I'd be so happy to find my open bite and crossbite can be functionally corrected along with straightening my teeth and maintaining stability in under half the time other orthos have estimated (18-24+ months). Even if it is 9-12 months vs. 18 months that is a huge difference.

I will let you know how my consult goes.
