Clear Aligners

SureSmile Teeth Alignment Treatment

At Mend Dental, we are excited to offer SureSmile, an innovative and effective clear aligner system designed to straighten teeth discreetly and comfortably. SureSmile offers a modern alternative to traditional braces, providing a convenient and nearly invisible solution for adults and teens seeking to enhance their smile without the hassle of metal brackets and wires.

Aligners must be worn 20–22 hours a day. Risks include sensitivity, gum irritation and relapse if retainers are not worn. Treatment here is provided by our general dentists.

What is SureSmile?

SureSmile utilises a series of custom-made, clear aligners designed to gently move your teeth into the desired position over time. These aligners are removable, allowing you to maintain your oral hygiene routine and enjoy your favourite foods during treatment. SureSmile offers a straightforward way to work towards a straighter smile without disrupting your day-to-day life.

Benefits of SureSmile

Nearly Invisible: SureSmile aligners are transparent, providing a discreet way to straighten your teeth without drawing attention.
Comfortable: Made from smooth, high-quality materials, SureSmile aligners are designed to fit comfortably without irritating your gums or cheeks.
Removable:You can easily remove the aligners for meals and cleaning, making it convenient to maintain your oral hygiene routine.
Customised:Each set of aligners is created specifically for your teeth to meet your unique orthodontic needs.
Range of use: SureSmile treats a variety of orthodontic issues, including crowding, spacing, and some bite concerns. Not every case is suitable — your dentist will assess this.

The SureSmile Process

Consultation: Your SureSmile journey begins with a consultation at Mend Dental, where we’ll assess your teeth and discuss your treatment goals to see if SureSmile is the right option for you.
Custom Treatment Plan: Using advanced 3D technology, we’ll develop a precise treatment plan showing the step-by-step movement of your teeth from start to finish.
Aligner Delivery: You’ll receive a series of aligners that you’ll wear for about two weeks each before moving on to the next set.
Progress Monitoring: We’ll schedule occasional check-ins to ensure your treatment is progressing as planned.
Completion: Once all aligners have been worn, your dentist will review the result and discuss whether refinement aligners are needed.

Aftercare

To maintain your new smile after completing SureSmile treatment, we may recommend custom-made retainers. These retainers are designed to ensure that your teeth stay in their optimal position, just like your aligners.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is SureSmile, and how does it work?

SureSmile is a clear aligner system that straightens teeth discreetly. It works by using a series of custom-made, removable aligners that gently shift your teeth into their desired positions over time. Each aligner is worn for about two weeks before moving on to the next one in the series.

How long does SureSmile treatment take?

The length of treatment varies depending on your specific case, but most patients complete SureSmile treatment in 6 to 18 months. Your Mend Dental dentist will provide an estimate of your treatment duration during your consultation.

Is SureSmile treatment painful?

SureSmile aligners are designed for comfort, and you may feel slight pressure when switching to a new aligner. Any discomfort is generally mild and temporary — contact us if it does not settle.

Can SureSmile treat all orthodontic issues?

SureSmile can address a wide range of orthodontic concerns, including crowding, spacing, overbite, underbite, and crossbite. During your consultation, we’ll assess whether SureSmile is the best option for your specific dental needs.

How do I care for my SureSmile aligners?

Caring for your aligners is simple. Remove them before eating or drinking anything other than water and brush them gently with a soft toothbrush. Be sure to rinse them regularly and keep them in their protective case when not in use.

What happens after my SureSmile treatment is complete?

After completing your SureSmile treatment, we’ll likely recommend wearing a retainer to help maintain your new smile. Retainers prevent teeth from shifting back into their original positions and are custom-made for a comfortable fit.
