What Are Clear Aligners?
Clear aligners make it easier than ever to straighten your teeth without metal braces. With a clear and nearly invisible design, they offer a modern approach to traditional orthodontics, helping you reach a straighter smile discreetly. SureSmile® aligners have quickly become a popular choice at 5 Star Dental Group for those who want to adjust their teeth with a flexible, comfortable option. Aligners are custom-made trays crafted from transparent, smooth plastic designed to shift your teeth gradually. Made with advanced imaging technology and similar to other orthodontic clear aligner treatments in the market, clear aligners fit snugly over your teeth and are typically replaced every couple of weeks. This method provides a convenient way to straighten teeth without brackets, wires, or the restrictions that come with metal braces. Schedule a consultation with our San Antonio, TX team to learn how investing in affordable clear aligners can help create a long-lasting smile.
How Do Clear Aligners Work?
This teeth-straightening method requires a step-by-step system where each set of trays brings you closer to your desired alignment. Custom trays are created based on digital scans and impressions of your teeth. As you wear the oral appliances, they apply gentle pressure on specific areas, guiding each tooth into a planned position. Every few weeks, you'll switch to a new set with each one advancing your progress toward a straighter smile. SureSmile aligners are crafted from high-quality materials to ensure durability and effectiveness. The trays are designed to fit comfortably while gradually moving teeth without noticeable shifts. They also can be removed while you eat, brush, or floss, giving you the freedom to clean your teeth as usual and avoid food restrictions. Treatment lengths can vary, with some people seeing results in as little as six months while others may need around 18 months for full results. Our dental team will monitor your progress during check-ins, ensuring that each phase moves your treatment forward effectively.
