SureSmile

SureSmile clear aligners are a series of transparent, removable aligners that gently and effectively move your teeth into their proper position. They are custom designed using advanced 3D imaging technology, ensuring a precise fit and predictable results. 

Key features include: 

• Virtually invisible: Made from transparent material, SureSmile aligners are discreet and suitable for those wanting a low-profile orthodontic solution. 

• Comfortable: The aligners are smooth, free from wires and brackets, and designed for optimal comfort during wear. 

• Removable: You can easily take them out when eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing, providing convenience and flexibility. 

How SureSmile Works 

The SureSmile treatment process is straightforward and begins with a consultation at Dr. Markham's dental office. Here’s an overview of what to expect: 

• Initial Consultation and Assessment 

Dr. Markham will assess your oral health to determine if SureSmile is the right option for you. This includes evaluating issues such as: 

• Crowded teeth 

• Gaps between teeth 

• Overbites, underbites, or crossbites 

• Overall alignment and occlusion 

• Digital Imaging and Custom Treatment Plan 

Using advanced imaging technology, a 3D scan of your teeth is taken to create a highly accurate digital model. Dr. Markham will use this model to map out your personalized treatment plan, predicting how your teeth will shift throughout the process. 

• Fabrication of Aligners 

Your aligners are crafted from durable, BPA-free plastic and customized to fit your teeth perfectly. Each aligner in the series is slightly different, designed to gradually move your teeth closer to their desired positions. 

• Wearing Your Aligners 

You’ll wear each set of aligners for about one to two weeks, depending on your treatment plan, before moving on to the next set. It’s important to wear your aligners for 20 to 22 hours per day for optimal results. 

• Monitoring Progress 

Dr. Markham will schedule periodic check-ins to ensure your treatment is progressing as planned. These appointments are typically less frequent than traditional orthodontic visits, saving you time. 

• Completing Your Treatment 

Once your teeth have reached their proper alignment, you’ll transition to wearing a retainer to maintain your results and prevent teeth from shifting back. Contact us to learn more.

Caring for Your SureSmile Aligners in Warrington, PA 

Proper care of your aligners ensures their effectiveness and helps maintain oral hygiene throughout your treatment. 

• Clean aligners daily: Use lukewarm water and a soft toothbrush to gently clean your aligners. Avoid using hot water, as it can warp the plastic.

• Store aligners safely: Use the provided case to store your aligners when they’re not in use to avoid misplacement or exposure to bacteria.
