And How Do They Differ From Braces?
Clear aligners are an orthodontic alternative to traditional metal braces that don't require uncomfortable brackets and wires. Our East Brunswick dental office uses SureSmile®. SureSmile uses a series of clear, smooth, removable aligner trays to gently guide your teeth into proper alignment. So why do patients choose clear aligners over braces? They are:
Removable
Easy
Discreet
With Clear Aligners
Orthodontic treatments like clear aligners offer a variety of benefits, including:
Better Health
Misaligned teeth are not just an aesthetic issue. Crooked teeth can make it difficult to brush and floss properly. This can put you at an increased risk of tooth decay and gum disease. By correcting your orthodontic concerns, you can practice better hygiene for improved oral health.
Beautiful Smile
A beautiful smile is just as important as a healthy smile. Some patients report feeling self-conscious about their misaligned teeth. Treatment using clear aligners allows patients to enjoy a beautifully straightened smile without the obvious metal wires and brackets used with braces.
Reduced Pain
A misaligned bite can not only cause oral health concerns but also jaw pain. Misaligned teeth can put stress on the temporomandibular joints (TMJs), which can lead to jaw pain, headaches, and more.
Aligners Address?
SureSmile aligners can address a variety of mild to moderate orthodontic issues, such as
Crooked Teeth
Gapped Teeth
Overcrowding
Crossbite
Underbite
Overbite
Open Bite
How Clear Aligners Work
Like Invisalign, SureSmile clear aligners work using a series of clear trays to guide your teeth into alignment. This works just like braces but without bulky and uncomfortable brackets and wires.

"The atmosphere and staff at Trinity Dental Services was outstanding. It was our first experience with a pediatric dentist and I couldn't be more pleased. The staff, from the reception area through to check out seem to be trained in handling children in kind and helpful ways like movies to watch while they wait."
