Six Month Smiles in Laurel, MD



Six-month braces are a short-term orthodontic process that allows a patient to get the beautiful, straight smile they deserve without wearing traditional braces for 2-3 years. For many adult patients, this is the ideal solution to the crooked teeth, spaces or gaps that they’ve been embarrassed about for years!

Unlike with traditional braces, the focus of six month braces is not to fix the bite but is instead to improve the aesthetics of the front teeth. The focus is only on straightening the teeth that show when you smile. This is achieved using a combination of brackets and wires to move the teeth, similar to traditional orthodontics. The brackets and wires are tooth colored (white) and are barely visible.

Six-month braces move the teeth at the same rate as traditional orthodontics. The teeth are not being moved faster! The difference between six-month braces and traditional orthodontics is that the focus is not on the full mouth. Instead, six month braces focus entirely upon straightening the teeth that show when you smile. When choosing six month braces, the goal is not to perfect the bite in your back teeth, so treatment stops once the front teeth are beautifully positioned.

Because the focus is not on changing the bite, six-month braces can be finished much more quickly than traditional orthodontics. Most six-month braces will take about six months to complete. Some may take less, some may take more. However, a majority of cases take an average of six months.

Six-month braces are an easy choice to make when faced with traditional orthodontics. If the teeth that show in your smile are not straight, or if you have gaps or spaces you would like fixed, six-month braces may be the perfect solution for you!

Cannot recommend Laurel Pines and Dr. Samad highly enough. I came in on a Sunday with a dental emergency (an implant I had gotten from another surgeon had been placed incorrectly, and was being rejected from my body thus causing an immense amount of pain) and I was seen immediately. Dr. Samad and his colleagues not only diagnosed the issue right away, but they also saw to it that I was seen for a corrective surgery within the same week.

First off, I never give anyone 5 stars, however, on a day like today I am. I was not paid to write this nor do I work for the company. I am usually the skeptic when it comes to those things so I want to make it known. I am a customer in need of some major help for my other half. This company is very professional, courteous, clean and respectful. I really appreciate Tammy and staff (forgot the young lady's name at the front desk along with Tammy).

Came in for an emergency root canal on a Saturday afternoon . Dr. Samad and all the staff were amazing. They were very supportive, willing to answer all questions and I could tell they genuinely wanted to help me get better. I highly recommend and they truly deserve 5 stars because 5 star service is what I received.

Dr. Samad is awesome! He is personable, attentive and honest. Excellent service from Tammy in the front office as well. I am excited to be a part of this office long term.

Dr. Samead and Tammy went above and beyond for me when I called with a dental emergency. They took their entire Saturday to help me and I'm in love with the results! Highly recommend !

Dr. Samad and his team we're absolutely amazing. I was nervous about my procedure and didn't know what to expect. They made me so comfortable while I was there. Today is my first day in a long time with no pain! I am very thankful and grateful for they work they've done.
