SureSmile® in Houston TX

More adults straighten their teeth with clear braces or aligners every year. If you have resigned yourself to having crooked teeth, an overbite, or some other misalignment issue affecting your smile, now is the time to consider the SureSmile® solution.

SureSmile Clear Aligners: A Modern, Discreet Way to Straighten Your Smile

In orthodontics, clear aligners have become a go-to solution for individuals seeking a more discreet way to straighten their teeth without brackets and wires. At Le Blanc General Dentistry, we offer SureSmile Clear Aligners. They are among the most advanced and precise systems available, whether you’re an adult seeking a refined smile or a teen hoping for a confidence boost. 

What Are SureSmile® Clear Aligners?

SureSmile Clear Aligners are an orthodontic treatment that uses a series of custom-made, removable trays to move teeth into alignment gently. These aligners are made from clear, medical-grade plastic, making them virtually invisible when worn. Unlike traditional braces that use brackets and wires, SureSmile aligners are smooth and comfortable, with no metal parts to irritate the delicate tissues of the cheeks and gums.

We use advanced 3D imaging and treatment planning software to create a highly accurate and customized SureSmile treatment plan. Each set of aligners is designed to move your teeth gradually and efficiently, ensuring optimal results. You typically switch to a new set of aligners every 2-3 weeks for progressive correction of any orthodontic issues. 

Benefits of Choosing SureSmile®

• Discreet Appearance: SureSmile aligners are crystal-clear and fit snugly over your teeth, making them a great option if you want to maintain a natural-looking smile throughout treatment.

• Customized for Precision: SureSmile’s digital treatment planning and robotic manufacturing deliver high levels of precision, which can lead to shorter treatment times and more predictable outcomes.

• Comfortable Fit: Because the aligners are custom-made using smooth plastic, they’re more comfortable than metal braces. There are no sharp edges or protruding pieces to cause sores or discomfort.

• Removable Convenience: You can take the aligners out to eat, brush, and floss. Because there are no metal brackets or wires to break, you can eat all the food you love without restrictions, and practicing good oral hygiene is easier. You can occasionally remove them for special events such as weddings, graduations, or photo opportunities.

• Fewer Office Visits: SureSmile’s technology helps streamline your treatment process. You don’t have to visit our office every two weeks to have your braces adjusted. Instead, we ask that you check in every six weeks for a quick checkup to ensure your aligners do their job, saving you time and money.

Who Is a Good Candidate for SureSmile?

SureSmile is suitable for teens and adults with mild to moderate orthodontic issues, such as:

• Crowded or crooked teeth

• Gaps between teeth

• Overbite, underbite, or crossbite

• Minor relapse after previous orthodontic treatment

You should have good oral health and be committed to wearing the aligners for 20–22 hours daily. Because the aligners are removable, they work best for people who can stick to the treatment plan. 

What to Expect During Your SureSmile® Treatment

• Consultation and Evaluation: We assess your smile, take digital scans of your teeth, and determine if SureSmile is the right fit for you.

• Custom Treatment Planning: Using 3D imaging technology, we create a personalized treatment plan. You’ll see a digital preview of how your teeth will move over time.

• Aligners Fabrication and Delivery: Your aligners are custom-crafted and delivered in sets. You’ll wear each set for about two weeks before switching to the next one in the series.

• Regular Check-ins: You’ll have periodic appointments to monitor your progress and ensure your teeth are moving as planned.

• Final Results and Retainers: Once treatment is complete, you’ll receive retainers to help maintain your new smile and prevent teeth from shifting back.
