Can SureSmile® Clear Aligners Straighten Twisted Teeth?
1/14/2023
Gone are the days of heavy metal braces. Nowadays, clear aligners can typically straighten most crooked teeth, such as twisted teeth. The SureSmile clear aligners system creates a three-dimensional computer model of your teeth that is very detailed. The computer model plans all the individual movements of your teeth during the treatment process. This lets your dentist know how your teeth will respond to the clear aligners every step of the way.
Dr. Ardalan Keshtkar at Sierra Gate Family Dental in Roseville, CA offers SureSmile clear aligners to straighten crooked and twisted teeth, and fix bite problems. At your dental consultation, Dr. Keshtkar will examine your teeth to determine if SureSmile clear aligners are the right choice to help meet your needs.
What are SureSmile clear aligners?
SureSmile clear aligners are clear aligners that are removable. The plastic molds are placed over your teeth and are a more aesthetically pleasing option as opposed to metal braces, which make many people feel self-conscious. SureSmile is an advanced clear aligner that provides fast and accurate results when used correctly.
All about SureSmile clear aligners
The SureSmile system is very precise. Using 3D scanner technology, your teeth are digitized into a computer model where they move the teeth efficiently into the proper position. A 3D printer is then used to create aligners that will slowly and consistently straighten your teeth.
The orthodontic therapy SureSmile is highly effective at repositioning your teeth, so they move into proper alignment. Each aligner is a step in the treatment phase. You will wear the clear aligner for a certain time and then swap it out for the next clear aligner in the series.
You’ll need to wear SureSmile aligners all day except when you eat, drink, floss, and brush. Each aligner is made of thin plastic and is comfortable to wear. Most patients using the SureSmile system forget they even have the aligners on their teeth. Best of all, they are very discreet. Most people won't even notice you are wearing the aligners, and your smile will still look beautiful in photos.
SureSmile clear aligners are an ideal adult or teenage orthodontic treatment. The clear aligners work well for the following:
- Overbite
- Crowded teeth
- Crooked/twisted teeth
- Underbite
- Gaps between the teeth
