Clear Aligner Therapy

Invisalign®

Invisalign clear aligners are a popular orthodontic treatment that many people use to straighten their teeth and improve their smile. The aligners are made of clear plastic and look similar to a retainer, making them virtually invisible. Invisalign aligners are custom-made for each individual patient and gradually move teeth into the desired position over time. Not only do they offer an aesthetically pleasing option, but they are also more comfortable than traditional braces due to their smooth surfaces that don’t irritate the gums or cheeks. Additionally, patients can easily remove them to clean, floss and eat, making it easier to maintain oral health than with traditional braces.

Sure Smile®

Sure Smile Aligners are a discreet, comfortable way to straighten your teeth without using traditional metal braces. The aligners are made of a smooth, clear and thin plastic that fits over your teeth like a glove. They are custom made for each patient based on 3D imaging, so they fit perfectly and can be easily removed whenever needed. Unlike metal braces, Sure Smile Aligners move your teeth gradually over time with little to no discomfort, so you won't have to worry about any soreness after visits to the orthodontist. Plus, since the aligners are clear and removable, you won't have to worry about any dietary restrictions or lifestyle changes that come with wearing traditional metal braces.

FAQs

  • What's the difference between Invisalign® and Sure Smile® Aligners?

    The primary difference between Invisalign® and Sure Smile® Aligners is that Invisalign® uses 3D computer imaging technology to generate a series of clear, custom-made aligners that gradually move your teeth into the desired position. Smile® Aligners are pre-fabricated and use a series of molds from which the aligners are formed, and can cost less than Invisalign®. The Sure Smile® Aligners also have a shorter treatment time than Invisalign®, as they can correct minor alignment issues more quickly.

  • Are there any foods that I should avoid while wearing aligners?

    The great thing about having clear aligners is that you don't have to give up all your tasty favorites when it comes to food and drinks. Just make sure you take out your aligner trays before having anything with a higher risk of damaging them and then brush after meals so no debris gets caught in between your teeth and the trays. This way you can enjoy whatever foods and drinks you want without worrying about how they will affect your alignment treatment!

  • Are there any activities that I should avoid while wearing aligners?

    Yes, you should avoid activities that involve high-contact sports, and using tobacco products while wearing aligners.
