Fix Crooked Teeth Without Braces: SureSmile Clear Aligners in Orlando
Rediscover a more comfortable, convenient, and harmonious way to straighten your teeth with SureSmile®, a clear aligner system designed to correct common orthodontic issues like an underbite, crowding, and overbite, among other concerns. Thanks to modern cosmetic dentistry, Orlando patients no longer have to contend with the burdens of intrusive metal braces and can repair the positioning of their teeth without obstructing their smile! Popular among both teens and adults, SureSmile® offers discreet and effective teeth straightening.
Can SureSmile Fix Crooked Teeth and Other Alignment Issues?
Yes. SureSmile clear aligners can correct the vast majority of orthodontic problems:
- Crooked or misaligned teeth — gradual repositioning
- Crowded teeth — creates space through sequential aligner progression
- Gaps between teeth — closes spacing progressively
- Overbite — corrects bite relationship
- Underbite — addresses lower jaw positioning
- Crossbite — aligns side-to-side bite issues
- Open bite — closes gaps when biting down
During your consultation, Dr. Nadine will evaluate whether SureSmile can fix your specific concerns, or if an alternative like Invisalign® or porcelain veneers might be a better fit.
SureSmile vs. Traditional Braces: Why Choose Clear Aligners?
SureSmile® allows you to straighten teeth without braces, while still addressing many common dental issues such as an overbite, underbite, open bite, crossbite, crowding, or general misalignments. This system can be an excellent option for Orlando patients looking for:
- A clear, inconspicuous orthodontic treatment
- A more comfortable option than metal braces
- An unrestricted diet
- An easier cleaning process
If you’re not a good candidate for SureSmile® but still want to enjoy a more cosmetic teeth-straightening system, Dr. Nadine can assess your concerns for treatment with Invisalign®. Minor concerns may be corrected with porcelain veneers, which can be placed in less than two office visits and effectively mask a misalignment.

How is Treatment with SureSmile® Performed?
SureSmile® clear aligners work by progressively moving your teeth into the proper alignment. Based on dental x-rays and digital imaging, our cosmetic dentist will formulate your treatment plan. You will wear your aligners for 20 to 22 hours a day, only removing them when eating and brushing your teeth. As you progress through each set of aligners, your teeth will gently be repositioned until the desired alignment is achieved. On average, treatment is complete within 9 to 12 months. Once your orthodontic plan is complete, wearing your retainers at night is vital to preserving your new smile.
How Much Does SureSmile® Cost?
The cost of your SureSmile® treatment plan will depend on unique factors, such as the number of aligners necessary to achieve your goals and the extent of your orthodontic concerns. In general, SureSmile® typically costs less than treatment with Invisalign®, but costs vary from person to person. Dr. Nadine will go over your personalized cost estimate once our team evaluates your needs in person. Dental financing is available for qualified patients who prefer to pay in small monthly installments, and our team can give you more information on payment options in person.
SureSmile® can be an effective, comfortable, and stress-free treatment to realign your bite. If you’re looking for a more discreet way to straighten your smile, don’t hesitate to reach out to Maple Dentistry Orlando to learn about our orthodontic options.
