How Clear Aligners Work
SureSmile uses customized clear aligners that are designed based off of the digital impression that we’ll capture of your smile. Once we receive your trays from the SureSmile lab, we’ll teach you how to use them and have you come back in for routine follow-up appointments every six to eight weeks. During your check-in visits, our team will track your progress and provide you with the next series of trays in your treatment until your final results are reached. Then, our team will provide you with a custom retainer to help preserve your hard-earned results.
Benefits of SureSmile Clear Aligners
While traditional braces may be suitable for some patients, they simply aren’t the right solution for everyone. At Taylor Street Dental, we are dedicated to custom treatment plans for every patient, and when orthodontic treatment with SureSmile is the right option, our team has the flexibility to create a personalized treatment plan that will deliver a healthy, beautiful smile that lasts. Some of the benefits of this orthodontic treatment include:
Basically Invisible Aligners
For many men, women, and adolescents seeking straighter teeth, the thought of years spent in metal braces is enough to keep them from pursuing orthodontic treatment. Sound familiar? If so, you’ll be happy to hear that SureSmile clear aligners are crafted from smooth, see-through plastic and are custom-made to fit the contours of your teeth perfectly. As a result, they are virtually invisible.
Improved Comfort
With clear SureSmile aligners, you can get the results you want without any of the discomfort of regular braces. That’s largely due to the fact that they are custom-made for each patient, which ensures they don’t dig into the soft tissue. However, it is normal to experience some soreness from time to time as your teeth begin to move into their ideal places. If that happens, use a cold compress, avoid crunchy foods, and, if needed, take OTC pain medication as directed.
No Dietary Restrictions
With SureSmile, you don’t have to worry about dietary restrictions. In fact, there’s only one strict rule: you need to remove your aligners before eating or drinking anything other than water. Outside of that, all we ask is that you eat mostly healthy, well-balanced meals. That way, your teeth and gums stay decay and infection-free throughout your orthodontic treatment.
Easy Dental Care
Another benefit of SureSmile: you don’t need to buy special cleaning products or adopt a cumbersome dental care regimen. Just remove your aligners, rinse them with clean, cool water, and place them in their designated case. Then, brush, floss, and rinse with mouthwash, as usual. When you’re done, clean your aligners and put them back on.
Shorter Average Treatment Timeline
Compared with other orthodontic treatments, SureSmile is much faster. Traditional bracket and wire braces, for example, typically take 18 to 36 months. Clear aligners, on the other hand, often deliver results in just 12-18 months. So, if you have a wedding, a vacation, or another special event coming up that you want a straight smile for, consider this popular smile-enhancing treatment!
Fewer (& Quicker!) Follow-Up Visits
Is this upcoming semester going to be your busiest one yet? Maybe you recently started a new job or are a busy parent with a jam-packed schedule. Whatever the case may be, you don’t have to worry – there aren’t monthly adjustment appointments with SureSmile. Instead, the progress visits are every 6-8 weeks, and they are usually less than 30 minutes!
