What Issues Can Clear Aligners Address?

Clear aligners can effectively treat many common orthodontic problems, making them a versatile solution for achieving your ideal smile. If you have one of the following concerns about your teeth, SureSmile may be the right choice for you:

  • Crowded teeth that overlap or appear cramped
  • Gaps between teeth that affect your smile’s appearance
  • Overbite, where the upper teeth protrude over the lower teeth
  • Underbite, where the lower teeth extend beyond the upper teeth
  • Crossbite, where some upper teeth sit inside the lower teeth
  • An open bite where the front teeth don’t touch when biting down

During your consultation, we’ll evaluate your specific concerns and determine whether clear aligners are the right treatment option for your unique needs.

4 Benefits of Clear Aligners

Clear aligners offer numerous advantages over traditional orthodontic treatments, making them an excellent choice for busy professionals, students, and anyone who wants to discreetly improve their smile. These benefits include the following:

Virtually Invisible Treatment

One of the most significant benefits of clear aligners is their nearly invisible appearance. Made from transparent material, these aligners allow you to straighten your teeth without anyone noticing you’re undergoing orthodontic treatment. This makes them particularly popular among adults and teenagers who want to maintain their confidence during treatment.

Removable Convenience

Unlike fixed braces, clear aligners can be removed for eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing. This means you can enjoy your favorite foods without restrictions and maintain optimal oral hygiene throughout treatment. The removability also makes them perfect for special events, presentations, or photos.

Comfortable and Smooth

Clear aligners are made from smooth, BPA-free plastic that won’t irritate your cheeks, gums, or tongue, unlike traditional metal braces. Because they don’t use wires or brackets, you’ll experience minimal discomfort throughout your treatment journey.

Predictable Results

With Digital Smile Design technology, we can show you exactly how your smile will look before treatment begins. By delivering a hyper-detailed model of your teeth and gums to labs, this tool also ensures precise treatment. Plus, this revolutionary technology quickly captures images with a non-invasive wand, allowing for a far more comfortable process in the chair.

Frequently Asked Questions

SureSmile aligners are a great option for teens and adults with minor tooth crookedness, moderate tooth misalignment, and mild bite issues. When patients commit to SureSmile, crowded teeth, overbites, underbites, and gapped teeth all can be corrected with ease.

Determining whether you are a good candidate for SureSmile clear aligners depends on several factors, including the severity of your dental issues, your age, and your overall oral health.

SureSmile is designed to treat mild misalignment issues for teens or adults with no oral health issues. If this sounds like you, we encourage you to schedule a consultation at South Hills Dental Arts. We’ll help you understand the full scope of your oral health state and find out if SureSmile is the best next step for your smile.

We recommend you wear the SureSmile aligners at least 22 hours a day, only removing them to eat and brush your teeth. When not in use, store them in the provided case to prevent loss or damage. Clean your aligners daily using a soft-bristled toothbrush and water to remove any food particles or bacteria. With proper care, your SureSmile aligners can help you achieve a straighter, healthier smile.
