Why Straighten My Teeth?

A straight smile not only enhances your appearance but also brings significant benefits. Our office understands these advantages and is committed to providing treatment to help you achieve them. Benefits of having straight teeth include:

  • Improved Oral Health: Straight teeth are easier to clean and maintain. They reduce the risk of food particles getting trapped between teeth, which can lead to plaque buildup, cavities, and gum disease.
  • Better Bite Alignment: Correcting teeth alignment can improve your bite, reducing strain on jaw muscles and joints. This can alleviate or prevent issues like TMJ disorders and teeth grinding.
  • Enhanced Confidence: A straight smile can boost your self-esteem and confidence. It can positively impact how you feel about your appearance and how others perceive you.
  • Speech Improvement: Properly aligned teeth can contribute to clearer speech and pronunciation.
  • Prevention of Wear and Tear: Misaligned teeth can cause uneven wear on tooth surfaces, leading to potential tooth damage.

What Are SureSmile Aligners?

SureSmile aligners are transparent, clear plastic aligners designed to discreetly straighten teeth. These aligners work by gradually shifting your teeth into their desired positions through a series of custom trays. Each successive tray is slightly adjusted to provide continuous progress in alignment and is worn for about two weeks, 20-22 hours a day. To maintain steady progress, it's important to only remove them for eating, drinking, and oral care. Additionally, they are virtually invisible, providing an aesthetically-pleasing orthodontic solution, and allow you to eat your favorite foods without limitations.

What Do Clear Aligners Treat?

Clear aligners are an effective tool for treating a variety of orthodontic cases. Our skilled dentist has the experience to effectively treat your mild to moderate tooth alignment cases using SureSmile aligners. Our office uses aligners to treat:

  • Crowding: Occurs when there isn't enough room in the jaw for teeth to align properly, leading them to overlap, twist, or become crooked.
  • Spacing: Results in gaps between teeth due to either missing teeth or teeth smaller than the jaw size.
  • Mild Bite Issues: Include overbite (upper teeth protruding over the lower teeth), underbite (lower teeth extending beyond the upper teeth), and crossbite (upper teeth resting inside the lower teeth when biting).

Our Process

We start your clear aligner journey with a thorough consultation, examining your teeth, and discussing your smile goals. Using digital scans of your teeth, we create a personalized treatment plan. These scans are then sent to a lab where your aligners are then made. Once your aligners are ready, you'll return to our office for instructions on proper wear for your specific treatment case. About every 6-8 weeks, you'll return to pick up your next sets of aligners and have our dentist monitor your tooth alignment progress.

Clear Aligners FAQs

We understand you may have questions regarding clear aligners. Our team of professionals is ready to answer your questions and provide guidance throughout your treatment process. Common questions regarding SureSmile aligners are:

How do I clean SureSmile aligners?

Clean your SureSmile aligners regularly by gently brushing them with a soft toothbrush and lukewarm water. Avoid using hot water or abrasive toothpaste, as these can damage the aligners.

Depending on the severity of your relapse, SureSmile aligners can be used for adjustments or touch-ups after previous orthodontic treatment to improve your teeth alignment.

Avoid consuming colored or sugary beverages while wearing your SureSmile aligners. Rinse your aligners with water before reinserting them after eating or drinking and clean them regularly to maintain their clarity.
