5 Common Questions About SureSmile Aligners—Answered by Bartlett’s Experts
If you’ve been dreaming of a straighter smile without the hassle of metal braces, SureSmile Clear Aligners might be the solution you’ve been looking for. At Irvington Dental, we serve patients in Streamwood and Bartlett, Illinois, and specialize in providing discreet and effective orthodontic care tailored to your lifestyle. Below, we answer five frequently asked questions about SureSmile Aligners to help you determine if they align with your smile goals.
What makes SureSmile different from other clear aligners like Invisalign?
SureSmile Aligners are custom-designed using advanced digital scanning technology to create precise treatment plans. Unlike some other brands, SureSmile uses software that allows your dentist to control every step of tooth movement, resulting in improved accuracy and potentially faster treatment times. Patients in Streamwood and Bartlett love how SureSmile combines comfort, clarity, and efficiency for a better orthodontic experience.
How long does treatment with SureSmile take?
Treatment length depends on your case’s complexity, but most patients see results in as little as six to eighteen months. During your consultation at Irvington Dental, our team will create a personalized plan outlining how long your treatment will take. Compared to traditional braces, many patients find that SureSmile offers a shorter and more predictable timeline.
Are SureSmile Aligners uncomfortable to wear?
SureSmile Aligners are made from smooth, BPA-free plastic that fits snugly over your teeth. Although you may feel slight pressure during the first few days of wearing a new set of aligners, this sensation indicates that the treatment is working. Many patients find SureSmile to be more comfortable than traditional metal braces since there are no brackets or wires that can irritate the mouth.
Can I eat and drink normally with SureSmile?
One of the biggest advantages of SureSmile Aligners is that they are removable. You can easily take them out when drinking, eating, or brushing your teeth, so there are no dietary restrictions. However, it is important to remember to remove your aligners before meals and to clean your teeth before putting them back in to prevent staining or trapping food particles.
Is SureSmile a good option for teens and adults in Streamwood and Bartlett?
Yes! SureSmile is ideal for teens and adults who want a straighter smile without paying attention to their treatment. Whether you’re a high school student in Bartlett or a working professional in Streamwood, SureSmile offers a discreet and convenient orthodontic solution. During your consultation, we’ll assess your teeth and goals to confirm if aligners are right for you.
