No metal, no problem — Find out why clear aligners might be your perfect fit
In the summer before senior year of high school, I had a friend who got braces. Now, that wouldn’t have been too much of an issue for him, except for one small detail: Yearbook pictures. Thankfully, his sharp tuxedo, slight tan, and credentials as a marching band member in the photo caption did a great job of distracting everyone from the dazzling braces that would undoubtedly be the highlight of the yearbook for alumni looking back at it for decades. Luckily for you, if you’re a candidate for SureSmile® clear aligners, you can skip the metal mouth experience altogether and avoid being the highlight of your yearbook photos.
Here is a quick comparison of clear aligners & traditional metal braces (by the way, you can still be in a cool marching band, no matter what option you go with):
If you’re dreaming of straighter teeth without the hassle of metal braces, SureSmile® Aligners might be your answer. These clear aligners are designed to treat common orthodontic issues such as crowding, spacing, and bite misalignment — and they’re a top choice for both adults and teens seeking a discreet, flexible option. You may be a good candidate for SureSmile® if you have mild to moderate alignment issues & are committed to wearing aligners consistently.
At your appointment, one of our excellent dental assistants will take down your dental history and perform any necessary scans & imaging. Then, either Dr. Nathan or Dr. Preston will review all that information & perform a thorough exam to assess the current state of your oral health. He will then have a conversation with you about your goals for alignment & if clear aligners might be a good option for you.
Call our office & we’ll set up a consultation! With the right plan and dedication, you could be well on your way to a straighter, more confident smile.
