How SureSmile® Works
SureSmile® clear aligners offer a streamlined and precise approach to orthodontic treatment, designed to fit seamlessly into your busy life. By leveraging advanced technology, SureSmile® ensures that your treatment is effective and efficient, delivering the desired results in less time than traditional braces.
Initial Consultation & Assessment
Your journey to a straighter smile with SureSmile® begins with a comprehensive consultation. Our dentist will thoroughly examine your teeth and gums during this initial visit to ensure they are healthy enough for treatment. If any issues, such as decay or gum disease, are detected, they will need to be addressed before starting the SureSmile® process.
Advanced 3D Imaging & Treatment Planning
Once your oral health is confirmed, we will use an intraoral scanner to take detailed digital scans of your teeth. This advanced technology allows us to create an incredibly accurate 3D model of your teeth, eliminating the need for traditional molds. These high-resolution images are then used alongside panoramic X-rays and photographs to develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.
With sophisticated 3D software, our dentist can simulate various treatment options and visualize how your teeth will move over time. This precise planning process ensures that each aligner is custom-made to guide your teeth into their optimal positions with the utmost accuracy.
Customization of Clear Aligners
After your treatment plan is finalized, the data is sent to the SureSmile® lab, where your custom aligners are created. These clear aligners are engineered to apply gentle, consistent pressure to your teeth, gradually moving them into the desired alignment. Each set of aligners is designed to be worn for a specific period, typically two weeks, before moving on to the next set in the series.
Using advanced robotics and technology, SureSmile® aligners are crafted to fit your teeth perfectly, ensuring a comfortable and effective treatment experience.
Benefits of SureSmile®
SureSmile® clear aligners offer several advantages over traditional braces, making them a popular choice for those seeking practical and comfortable orthodontic treatment:
- Precision and Accuracy in Teeth Movement: SureSmile® aligners are designed using advanced 3D imaging and robotics, ensuring that each tooth moves precisely—this level of precision results in more predictable outcomes and a beautifully aligned smile.
- Shorter Treatment Times: One of the most significant benefits of SureSmile® is the potential for shorter treatment times. Thanks to the precise planning and custom aligner design, SureSmile® can reduce overall treatment time by up to 40% compared to traditional braces.
- Enhanced Comfort with Fewer Dental Visits: SureSmile® aligners are crafted to fit your teeth perfectly, minimizing discomfort and eliminating the need for frequent adjustment appointments. With SureSmile®, you’ll spend less time in the dental chair and more time enjoying your life.
- Aesthetic Advantages: Clear and Discreet Aligners: SureSmile® aligners are made from clear, durable, virtually invisible material when worn. This means you can straighten your teeth without the noticeable appearance of metal braces, allowing you to maintain your confidence throughout treatment.
What to Expect During Treatment
Embarking on your SureSmile® journey is straightforward and designed to fit your lifestyle. Here’s what you can expect during your treatment:
- Step-by-Step Process of SureSmile® Treatment: After receiving your custom aligners, you will wear each set for about two weeks, gradually moving your teeth into the desired positions. You’ll need to wear your aligners for 20-22 hours a day, only removing them for eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing.
- Regular Check-ins and Progress Monitoring: While SureSmile® requires fewer dental visits than traditional braces, regular check-ins are still essential. These appointments allow our dentist to monitor your progress and ensure your treatment is on track. If adjustments are needed, they can be made promptly to keep your treatment moving forward efficiently.
- Tips for Maintaining Aligners and Oral Hygiene: Keeping your aligners clean is crucial for maintaining oral hygiene during treatment. We recommend rinsing your aligners every time you remove them and brushing them gently with a soft toothbrush daily. It’s also important to continue brushing and flossing your teeth regularly to keep your mouth healthy throughout your SureSmile® treatment.
Comparing SureSmile® to Traditional Braces
SureSmile® clear aligners offer a modern alternative to traditional braces. They use advanced 3D imaging and robotics for precise teeth movement. Unlike braces that rely on metal brackets and wires, SureSmile® aligners are designed for comfort and convenience, reducing the discomfort often associated with frequent adjustments.
A key advantage of SureSmile® is its clear, discreet appearance. It allows you to straighten your teeth without the noticeable hardware of braces. Additionally, SureSmile® aligners make it easier to maintain oral hygiene, as they can be removed for brushing and flossing. This can lead to better long-term oral health compared to traditional braces.
