SureSmile in East Dundee
What is the Process for SureSmile?
The process is simple. First, we take impressions of your teeth to create a customized treatment plan. Then, we generate a series of aligners designed explicitly for you. Using digital modeling technology and the latest orthodontic techniques, we will work to custom-sculpt your aligners for a perfect match on your teeth.
You will wear each aligner for about two weeks before switching to the next one in the series. We will hold on to each aligner set for you and deliver them in the correct order. You can come into the office for each new set, and we can ensure they fit comfortably and work as expected.
Each new set of clear aligners gently guides your teeth in the intended direction. The process is gradual and comfortable, and Dr. Desai will be there at each step to ensure all is going according to plan.
SureSmile vs. Traditional Braces
How does SureSmile compare to traditional braces? In many ways, SureSmile is superior to braces. SureSmile is more comfortable, discreet, and convenient. It also causes less irritation to the gums and mouth.
Traditional braces provide an excellent “tried and true” way of straightening teeth. But the silver braces can stand out on your teeth when you talk or smile. With SureSmile, others likely won’t notice you are wearing them when you speak, take pictures, or even during your biggest, widest smile.
Not only is SureSmile comfortable and discreet, but you can smile with confidence while wearing them, knowing that your teeth are getting straighter and straighter all the time. SureSmile clear aligners are made from a more durable material, making them less likely to break or become damaged.
What is the Cost of SureSmile?
The cost of SureSmile varies depending on your needs and the length of your treatment. SureSmile is generally more expensive than traditional braces, but it offers many advantages that braces cannot.
How Do I Care For SureSmile Aligners?
The ease of caring for your clear aligners is an advantage over other orthodontic options. Traditional braces, for example, are not as challenging to clean as you might expect, but it’s much easier to clean clear aligners.
To clean your SureSmile aligners, simply brush them with mild soap and water. It would be best if you also rinsed them after each meal or snack. You can remove your clear aligners when you need to eat or drink. It’s essential to keep your aligners clean so that they can effectively straighten your teeth and so that you don’t experience a buildup of excess plaque on your teeth.
