SureSmile– DeSoto, TX
Choose the Clear Path to a Straighter Smile
Many adults may mistakenly believe that it's too late to address issues like noticeable gaps or misalignments in their smiles. After all, traditional braces are often associated with middle and high school students. At Amaze Dental, we're pleased to inform you that there's an alternative to metal braces for achieving your ideal smile. Our practice offers SureSmile, an orthodontic solution that replaces the conventional wire-and-bracket approach with a more discreet and aesthetically pleasing option.

How SureSmile Works
SureSmile treatment utilizes a series of clear plastic trays known as aligners, to be worn for a minimum of 22 hours daily. With each new set of aligners, a small section of your smile is gradually adjusted until all your teeth are in their desired positions. You'll wear each set for a few weeks before progressing to the next pair in the series. Following the completion of your treatment, wearing a retainer will be necessary to maintain your teeth in their newly aligned positions and prevent any potential reversion to their previous state.
Indications for SureSmile
While severe malocclusion may require traditional braces, SureSmile proves effective in treating a wide array of orthodontic issues, such as:
Crowded Teeth
Overcrowding often affects both the aesthetics and functionality of your smile. Thankfully, these transparent aligners can gently guide your teeth into their correct positions in as little as 12 to 18 months on average!
Gaps Between Teeth
SureSmile allows for the gradual closure of gaps between your teeth, enhancing your oral health, bite, and overall confidence along the way!
Bite Alignment
Common bite issues like overbites, underbites, and crossbites, if left unaddressed, can lead to premature wear, chronic teeth grinding, and other complications. Thankfully, SureSmile is capable of effectively correcting these bite problems too!
The Benefits of SureSmile
By choosing SureSmile, you can anticipate the following advantages:
- Comfortable Fit – Your clear aligners are crafted from smooth plastic, ensuring a comfortable experience. They are custom designed to snugly fit your smile, preventing any irritation to your gums or lips that might occur with traditional braces.
- Convenience – With SureSmile, you have the flexibility to remove your aligners whenever you need to eat. This means you can continue enjoying your favorite meals throughout your treatment. Additionally, maintaining oral hygiene becomes much easier as your teeth are readily accessible for brushing and flossing.
- Virtually Invisible – The transparency of your clear aligners makes them nearly imperceptible. This means that only you and your dentist will be aware of your SureSmile treatment. You won't need to hide your smile, allowing you to confidently display your bright, pearly whites.
How Much Does SureSmile Cost?
Determining the exact cost of your treatment depends on various factors, which we'll assess during your consultation. When weighing the benefits of SureSmile against traditional braces, it becomes evident that the investment in your smile is worthwhile. Fewer bite-related problems translate to reduced time in the dental chair and lower expenses on procedures like fillings.
