Finding the right tooth aligners to straighten your teeth can transform your smile and your entire life. Having misaligned or crooked teeth often hurts self-esteem and can impact your oral healthcare and speech.
This is why at Wilmington Smiles, Dr. Gregory Garrett is proud to offer advanced clear teeth straightening technology, such as SureSmile, that can effectively and discreetly realign your teeth into the smile of your dreams.
One of the biggest benefits SureSmile aligners offer is a nearly invisible appearance. You can now straighten your smile without anyone knowing you’re using orthodontics.
This isn’t the case with traditional metal braces, which are very noticeable and can make you feel even more self-conscious about your smile. With SureSmile, you don’t have to worry about people staring at your mouth while you speak.
Comfort is a huge issue with metal braces, which are notorious for being incredibly uncomfortable. Both the metal and rubber bands can rub against sensitive tissue and cause sores inside your mouth.
However, with SureSmile aligners, you receive several sets of custom-made aligners designed to fit your teeth during each stage of your treatment.
Instead of taking time out of your week to visit the dentist for adjustments, you change your aligners on Dr. Garrett’s prescribed schedule.
Like traditional braces, SureSmile uses gradual pressure to realign your smile. But, as mentioned, the process is far more comfortable and convenient, and it provides precise adjustments at the right time, making it easy to follow your perfect smile game plan.
At first, you may feel pressure on your teeth, but you’ll get used to it after a week or two. Best of all, Dr. Garrett can give you a sneak preview of your new smile using advanced predictive software to help keep you motivated.
Eating and cleaning are some of the biggest hassles of having traditional metal braces. Often, food gets stuck between parts that are very difficult to clean. You need special cleaning tools such as an interproximal toothbrush and more patience as the process takes more effort.
But with SureSmile, you only need to remove your aligners before eating and brush your teeth when it’s time. You can brush and floss your teeth twice daily without special tools or additional time and effort.
One of the biggest selling points for SureSmile aligners over traditional braces is the time it takes to complete your treatment. Traditional braces can be worn for at least 12-24 months.
However, SureSmile aligners can fix minor alignment issues in as little as 6-8 months. While more complex alignment issues may take about the same amount of time as traditional braces, the ease and comfort will make the time go by quickly.
