After examining your smile and determining what your orthodontic needs are, your dentist can provide you with a set of clear aligners. Each one is meant to be worn for a designated time, and they bring you gradually closer to your ideal smile alignment. Why does the process move at a set schedule? This process is carefully timed out in order to ensure long-lasting results. In addition to moving your teeth, orthodontic treatment must stimulate movement in your jaw and periodontal tissues. This is a more gradual process, but it is important to make sure it takes place so that your teeth do not shift back into their earlier positions.
Clear braces have proved to be a popular alternative to traditional metal braces. Treating your smile with aligners means wearing appliances that are difficult to see, meaning you can wear them without feeling self-conscious. You can also be happy to have a treatment that does not rely on a fixed appliance. Metal braces remain in place for the duration of your adjustment, which means you have to learn to work around them when you eat or clean your teeth. With SureSmile and other clear braces, your adjustment does not require a permanent appliance, which means you can practice daily habits without frustrating interference.
While it is important to plan orthodontic treatment so that your results last, SureSmile is able to deliver results in a shorter time. How is this accomplished? Your custom aligners are made to focus on moving your front teeth, which means you start seeing the cosmetic improvements from orthodontic work in less time. This emphasis can lead to a smile-friendly improvement in less time – many people see results in just three to six months!
