What are SureSmile clear aligners?

SureSmile clear aligners are a modern, discreet orthodontic solution designed to straighten teeth and improve your smile. Made from comfortable, transparent plastic, these custom-made aligners are virtually invisible, making them an excellent choice for those who want a more subtle orthodontic treatment option. SureSmile aligners are also completely removable, making it easy to eat, brush, and floss without the restrictions of fixed brackets or wires. When patients follow their treatment plans accordingly, average treatment times are between 6 and 12 months.

How do SureSmile clear aligners work?

SureSmile clear aligners use advanced technology to gradually shift your teeth into alignment. After your consultation, our team will take 3D scans of your teeth to create a personalized treatment plan. You’ll then wear a series of custom aligners, each designed to make slight adjustments to your teeth. Aligners are typically worn 20–22 hours a day and changed every two weeks. Over time, SureSmile aligners correct alignment issues like crowding, gaps, and bite irregularities, helping patients achieve straighter, healthier smiles.

Who is a candidate for SureSmile clear aligner therapy?

Candidates for SureSmile clear aligner therapy include individuals with mild to moderate alignment issues, such as crooked teeth, gaps, or bite irregularities. It’s also an excellent option for teens and adults who want an alternative to traditional braces. Candidates should have good overall oral health, as untreated cavities or gum disease should ideally be taken care of before orthodontic treatment begins.

"This was the best experience with a dentist I've ever had. I had an implant done and was expecting a lot of pain. I had no pain at all. It was so refreshing to have a dentist who cares about his patients. I highly recommend Dr. Orme and his staff at Southwest Dental Care."

- Sheryl B.

"I'm the kind of person who likes a real explanation of what's happening, even if I don't really understand half of it. Dr. Orme went the extra mile to explain everything in a casual and personable way without "dumbing it down". The office space is modern and fresh, and the staff is welcoming and characterful."

- John D.

"I worked with Dr. Orme in the Dominican Republic recently on a humanitarian trip. I watched him work hard every day at making the people feel good, creating an experience, as well as teaching those around him. He makes patients and co-workers feel good. He's positive, very upbeat, and I would recommend him strongly!!"

- Spencer C.

"He is the best dentist I have ever been to. He listens and only does what you want done without pressure. Very informative without the lecture. Dr. Orme and his staff are very friendly."
