Have you been thinking about straightening your teeth, but can’t imagine yourself with metal braces? Well, you’re not alone! Many adults and teens across NSW want a straighter smile without the wires, brackets and food restrictions. That’s where SureSmile® clear aligners come in, and we’re pleased to offer them right here at Markham Street Dental.
What Are SureSmile Clear Aligners?
SureSmile is a modern, discreet orthodontic system that uses a series of clear, custom-made aligners to gradually move your teeth into proper alignment. They’re nearly invisible, removable and designed to fit your lifestyle.
Unlike traditional braces, SureSmile aligners are smooth and comfortable, with no metal to irritate your cheeks or gums. Each aligner is worn for about two weeks before switching to the next set, and over time, your smile transforms without anyone noticing you're in treatment.
Why Do Our Patients Choose SureSmile?
Patients of all ages appreciate the numerous benefits of clear aligners like SureSmile. These benefits include:
- Discreet Appearance — The clear design means most people won't even notice you're wearing them.
- Removable Convenience — You can take them out to eat, drink, brush and floss. People who wear clear aligners don’t need to adhere to food restrictions or tricky cleaning routines. You can remove the aligners and clean your teeth as usual.
- Predictable Results — SureSmile uses advanced digital scans and customised treatment planning.
- Comfortable Fit — Each clear aligner is custom-made for your mouth using high-quality materials that feel smooth and snug.
Who Is a Good Candidate?
SureSmile clear aligners are ideal for treating mild to moderate alignment issues, including:
- Crowded or crooked teeth
- Gaps or spacing
- Overbite, underbite or crossbite
During your consultation, we’ll take digital impressions and assess your smile to see if SureSmile is the right choice for you.
Life with SureSmile Clear Aligners
One of of our patients' favourite aspects of SureSmile is how easily it can fit into daily life. You can keep enjoying your favourite foods, maintain your normal oral hygiene routine and smile in photos. And you can do so, all while your teeth gradually shift into place.
To keep your treatment on track, we recommend that you wear your aligners for 20–22 hours per day and check in with us as arranged. Most treatments are completed in six to 18 months, depending on your unique needs.
