What Is SureSmile?

  • Customized Aligner Fabrication: Using advanced software, your aligners are custom-made to fit your teeth perfectly.
  • Wearing Your Aligners: You’ll wear each set of aligners for about 1-2 weeks, gradually shifting your teeth into place.
  • Regular Checkups: We’ll monitor your progress and make adjustments as needed to ensure optimal results.
