How SureSmile Clear Aligners Work

SureSmile aligners are thin, clear trays made to fit your teeth. Each set moves your teeth a small amount, and as you switch to the next set, your teeth progress step by step toward their planned position.

Aligners need to be worn most of the day and night to work. You take them out to eat, to drink anything other than water, and to brush and floss, which makes it easy to keep your teeth clean during treatment.

Clear Aligners Planned by Your Dentist

With SureSmile, your plan is created by a dental professional, not a mail-order company. Advanced imaging builds a 3-D model of your teeth so your dentist can see them from root to crown and plan each movement precisely. You have regular check-ins along the way, so we can make sure your teeth are moving as planned.

Clear Aligners or Braces?

Clear aligners are nearly invisible and removable, and there are no brackets or wires to irritate your mouth. They work best when you wear them as directed. Some bite problems need more than aligners can do; if that’s the case for you, we’ll tell you honestly and refer you to an orthodontist.

Clear Aligner FAQs

How much do clear aligners cost in Edmonds?

It depends on how complex your case is and how long treatment takes. We’ll give you the cost after your consultation and check any orthodontic benefits your insurance includes.

Do I have to wear my aligners all the time?

Aligners need to be worn most of the day and night to work. You’ll take them out to eat, to drink anything other than water, and to brush and floss.

Do clear aligners hurt?

You may feel pressure for a day or two when you switch to a new set. That’s a sign the aligners are working, and it usually fades quickly.

How long does treatment take?

It varies with how much your teeth need to move. We’ll give you an estimate once your 3-D model and plan are ready.

Will I need a retainer afterward?

Yes. Teeth tend to drift back, so a retainer helps keep your new smile in place.

Can anyone tell I’m wearing aligners?

Clear aligners are hard to notice in everyday conversation, which is why many adults choose them.
