Sure Smile Clear Aligners for Straighter Teeth

Many people have wondered about the differences between Clear Aligners vs Braces. Both are actually intended to accomplish the same thing, i.e. straightening out misaligned teeth. The big difference comes in the materials used to accomplish this task.
Whereas traditional braces require wires, rubber bands, and metal braces, the Sure Smile process only requires the usage of clear plastic aligners. This can be a crucial difference for young people who wish to avoid being teased and hassled about having metal braces in their mouth.
Sure Smile vs Metal Braces
Another subtle difference is that Sure Smile is excellent for correcting cases of mild to moderate misalignment, but it’s probably not the best solution for cases of severe misalignment. When using the Sure Smile system, a patient would be required to keep the aligner trays installed for about 20 hours each day. The upside of that is that they can be removed at meal times, and for brushing and flossing. Metal braces must remain in the mouth at all times, which makes dental hygiene a bit more problematic.
Cost of Getting Sure Smile Clear Aligners
The cost of Sure Smile is comparable to traditional braces, so there is no significant savings by going with one or the other of the two systems.
However, given the tremendous advantage provided by having virtually invisible braces in your mouth, many people have a clear preference for the Sure Smile system. At the end of 12 months, or whatever the treatment period may be, you’ll have a brand new smile, and your teeth will look great instead of being an eyesore. This can give a young person a big confidence boost, and at that stage of their lives, self confidence can be a major consideration.
