Frequently asked questions about Teeth Straightening
Are SureSmile Clear Aligners visible?
One of the key advantages of SureSmile Clear Aligners is their virtually invisible appearance. Made from clear, BPA-free plastic, these aligners blend seamlessly with your natural teeth.
How do SureSmile Clear Aligners work?
SureSmile Clear Aligners utilize custom-made trays to gradually move your teeth into their desired positions over time. These aligners are worn for a specified period. Each set progressively shifts your teeth closer to alignment.
How long does treatment with SureSmile Clear Aligners take?
The duration of treatment varies depending on your specific dental needs and treatment goals. On average, most patients achieve their desired results within six to 18 months.
Are SureSmile Clear Aligners comfortable to wear?
These aligners are designed for maximum comfort, with smooth edges and a snug yet gentle custom fit over your teeth. Unlike traditional braces, clear aligners exert gentle pressure on your teeth, minimizing discomfort during treatment.
What should I eat and drink while undergoing teeth straightening?
Since SureSmile Clear Aligners are removable, you can enjoy your favourite foods and drinks without restrictions. However, it’s important to brush your teeth and aligners thoroughly after consuming anything besides water.
How do I care for my clear aligners?
SureSmile Clear Aligners are removable, allowing for easy cleaning. Brush them gently with a soft-bristled toothbrush and toothpaste (avoid abrasive toothpaste) after each time you remove them to eat or drink (excluding water). You can also soak them in a denture cleaner specifically designed for clear aligners for deeper cleaning.
Will clear aligners affect my speech?
There might be a slight adjustment period in the beginning as you get accustomed to wearing the aligners. However, most patients adapt quickly and experience minimal to no impact on their speech.
