How Do SureSmile® Clear Aligners Work?
SureSmile aligners are custom-made, transparent trays that gently shift your teeth into their ideal position. Using advanced digital scanning and 3D imaging, Dr. Peña creates a precise treatment plan tailored to your needs. The aligners exert controlled pressure on specific teeth, gradually aligning them over time. You wear each set of aligners for one to two weeks before moving on to the next set in the series.
SureSmile’s advanced technology ensures that tooth movement is efficient and predictable, often leading to shorter treatment times than other systems.

How long does SureSmile take to show results?
Most patients start noticing changes within a few weeks. The total treatment time varies depending on the complexity of your case but often ranges from 6 to 18 months.
Can I eat while wearing my clear aligners?
No, aligners should be removed before eating or drinking anything other than water. This prevents staining and damage to the aligners.
Is SureSmile as effective as traditional braces?
SureSmile aligners are highly effective for a wide range of mild to moderate orthodontic issues, offering comparable results to traditional braces without the visibility or discomfort of metal brackets and wires. However, if you have severe bite issues, you may want to discuss more conventional orthodontic options, such as ceramic braces, with Dr. Peña.

Absolutely. SureSmile aligners are made from smooth, high-quality materials that fit snugly over your teeth, ensuring your comfort throughout the treatment process.
