How Do SureSmile Clear Aligners Work?
SureSmile is similar to other clear aligner systems in that it works to shift teeth into proper alignment more subtly and comfortably. As an Invisalign alternative, these aligners are reported to produce faster treatment times (by three months) for certain patients, require fewer refinements, and generate more predictable outcomes because they can be used with most scanners.
When worn properly, which is 20-22 hours each day, these customized clear aligners apply gentle pressure to teeth to move them in the right direction. After a few weeks of wear, you are instructed to swap out your existing trays for the next set so that your teeth will continue to move. When finished with the series, you should see a more perfectly aligned smile that looks and feels better than before.
Who Can SureSmile Help?
If the thought of wearing noticeable brackets and wires has stopped you from pursuing orthodontic treatment, we have good news: SureSmile can deliver the same gorgeous results without the metal! In this next section, you’ll learn a few of the many orthodontic problems that clear aligners can help. However, don’t hesitate to schedule a consultation with us if you’re interested in finding out if you’re a good candidate.
Crowded Teeth
Have your teeth gradually rotated out of position? If so, the look and health of your smile can suffer greatly. There is good news, though: SureSmile can correct mild to moderate cases of overcrowding with clear, custom-made aligners! If you’re a good candidate for this orthodontic treatment, then we can gradually guide your teeth into their ideal positions (often in just 12-18 months, too).
Gaps Between Teeth
Have you been wondering if SureSmile can fix teeth gaps? Fortunately, the answer is “yes!” So, don’t hesitate to schedule a consultation at our Covington office so we can get an in-depth understanding of your dental history, needs, and goals. From there, we can determine if clear aligner treatment is right for you, and, if it is, have a custom series made to gradually close the gaps.
Overbite
Although a slight overbite is normal, several problems can arise with more considerable ones. For that reason, we strongly recommend exploring your treatment options sooner rather than later. If we decide together that SureSmile is the best option, then we will create your custom treatment plan, take detailed impressions of your teeth, and begin the process of creating your clear aligners.
Underbite
When you bite down, do your lower teeth sit in front of your upper ones? If so, you may have an underbite, which is an orthodontic problem that can have a negative effect on everything from your self-esteem to your oral health. So, don’t wait to schedule a consultation with us! The sooner you do, the sooner we can determine if SureSmile is a solution.
Crossbite
For some patients, only a few of their upper teeth sit behind their lower ones. If that’s the case for you, then you might have a crossbite. Again, this orthodontic problem can lead to several issues, including premature wear and tear on certain teeth. Fortunately, metal braces aren’t the only answer; SureSmile clear aligners can correct mild to moderate cases, too!
Open Bite
When you bite down, is there a space between your upper and lower teeth that prevents them from meeting evenly? This bite problem is known as an “open bite,” and it’s believed that it forms from genetics and childhood habits, like thumb-sucking. Whatever the case may be, we might be able to create a healthy bite with SureSmile clear aligners!
