Why Choose SureSmile Clear Aligners?

Are you hesitant to smile because of crooked teeth? Traditional metal braces aren’t your only option anymore. At Roman Dental Arts, our father-daughter dental team of Dr. Donald J. Roman and Dr. Alissa M. Roman offers SureSmile clear aligners—an innovative, nearly invisible solution for straightening your teeth without the discomfort and appearance of traditional braces.

SureSmile clear aligners use advanced 3D technology to create a personalized treatment plan that’s specifically designed for your unique dental structure. This cutting-edge approach allows for more precise tooth movement and potentially shorter treatment times compared to other clear aligner options available in Bergen County.

As certified SureSmile providers, our dentists have undergone specialized training to deliver optimal results with this advanced clear aligner system. We’re committed to helping Hackensack residents achieve straighter, healthier smiles with treatments that fit seamlessly into their busy lives.

What Are SureSmile Clear Aligners?

SureSmile clear aligners are transparent dental appliances custom-made to fit over your teeth and gradually move them into proper alignment. Unlike traditional metal braces that use brackets and wires, SureSmile aligners apply gentle, consistent pressure to shift teeth into their ideal positions according to your personalized treatment plan.

These advanced clear aligners are manufactured using state-of-the-art digital mapping and precision technology. When you choose SureSmile, your treatment begins with digital scans of your teeth that create a 3D model. This allows our dentists to plan each stage of your tooth movement with exceptional accuracy, resulting in more efficient treatment and predictable outcomes.

SureSmile clear aligners are made from a proprietary material that’s both comfortable and durable, maintaining their clarity throughout wear. This makes them virtually undetectable to others—a significant advantage for adult professionals and teens who prefer a discreet orthodontic solution that won’t interfere with their appearance or confidence during treatment.

Benefits of SureSmile Clear Aligners 

The SureSmile system offered at Roman Dental Arts provides Hackensack patients with numerous advantages over traditional orthodontic treatments. The most appreciated benefit is their nearly invisible appearance—allowing you to straighten your teeth without drawing attention to your cosmetic dental work. This makes SureSmile an excellent choice for working professionals, students, and anyone concerned about their appearance during orthodontic treatment.

Another significant advantage for our patients is the removability of SureSmile aligners. Unlike fixed braces, you can take out your aligners for special events, important meetings, or while enjoying your favorite foods. However, for optimal results, our dentists recommend wearing your SureSmile aligners for 20-22 hours daily, removing them only when necessary for eating, drinking anything besides water, and oral hygiene routines.

SureSmile clear aligners also provide enhanced comfort compared to traditional braces. Without metal brackets and wires that can irritate your cheeks and gums, SureSmile’s smooth plastic design minimizes discomfort throughout your treatment. Many of our patients report forgetting they’re even wearing their aligners after the initial adjustment period.

How SureSmile Treatment Works

Your SureSmile journey at Roman Dental Arts begins with a comprehensive consultation. During this initial visit, our dentists will evaluate your oral health, discuss your smile goals, and determine if SureSmile clear aligners are the right solution for your specific needs. Not everyone is a candidate for clear aligners, so this assessment is crucial to ensure successful treatment.

If SureSmile is right for you, we’ll take precise digital impressions of your teeth using advanced scanning technology—no messy putty impressions required. These scans create a detailed 3D model that our dentists use to design your custom treatment plan. You’ll even be able to preview a simulation of how your teeth will move during treatment and see your expected results before beginning.

Based on your personalized plan, a series of SureSmile clear aligners will be custom-crafted for your treatment. During regular check-ups, we’ll monitor your progress and provide you with several sets of aligners at once. Each set is worn for approximately 1-2 weeks before progressing to the next in the series, gradually moving your teeth toward their ideal positions.

Dental Issues SureSmile Can Correct

SureSmile clear aligners can effectively address a wide range of dental alignment issues for patients. They’re particularly effective for treating overbites, where upper teeth extend too far beyond lower teeth, and underbites, where lower teeth protrude past upper teeth. These common bite issues not only affect appearance but can also contribute to jaw pain and uneven tooth wear if left untreated.

Crossbites and open bites are also treatable with SureSmile. A crossbite occurs when some upper teeth sit inside your lower teeth rather than outside, while an open bite leaves a gap between upper and lower teeth when biting down. Our dentists can determine if your specific bite issues can be effectively corrected with SureSmile clear aligners during your consultation.

SureSmile is also excellent for addressing spacing problems common among Hackensack patients. Whether you have gaps between teeth or crowded teeth causing overlap, SureSmile’s precise movement capabilities can create proper spacing and alignment. By correcting these issues, SureSmile not only improves aesthetics but also makes teeth easier to clean, potentially reducing your risk of decay and gum disease.

Maintaining Oral Health During SureSmile Treatment

Maintaining excellent oral hygiene is crucial during your SureSmile treatment at Roman Dental Arts. Unlike traditional braces that make brushing and flossing challenging, SureSmile clear aligners can be removed for your regular oral hygiene routine. This removability is a significant advantage for our patients, allowing for thorough cleaning of both your teeth and the aligners themselves.

Our dental team recommends brushing your teeth after every meal before reinserting your aligners to prevent food particles from becoming trapped against your teeth. We also suggest rinsing or gently brushing your SureSmile aligners each time you remove them to keep them clear and free from bacteria. Never use hot water on your aligners, as this could warp the plastic and affect your treatment progress.

Regular dental check-ups and professional cleanings at our office remain essential during your SureSmile treatment. These appointments allow our dentists to monitor not only your alignment progress but also your overall oral health, ensuring that no issues develop during your treatment. With proper care, SureSmile can improve both the appearance and health of your smile simultaneously.

SureSmile for Teenagers

SureSmile clear aligners are an excellent option for teens who may feel self-conscious about wearing traditional braces. During these formative years, appearance often plays a significant role in self-confidence, making the virtually invisible nature of SureSmile particularly appealing to teenagers and their parents.

For teens, SureSmile offers practical benefits beyond aesthetics. The removable aligners mean fewer emergency appointments for broken brackets or wires, and no special tools are needed for oral hygiene. Additionally, since teens can remove aligners for special events like school dances or senior pictures, these important milestones can be enjoyed without orthodontic appliances visible in photos.

At Roman Dental Arts, we understand the unique considerations when treating teenagers with SureSmile. We work closely with both teens and parents to ensure compliance with wearing the aligners for the recommended 20-22 hours daily. Some SureSmile aligners even feature compliance indicators that help parents monitor usage, ensuring your teenager achieves the best possible results from their treatment.

SureSmile for Adults

Many of our adult patients have long desired straighter teeth but have hesitated to pursue traditional braces due to professional or social concerns. SureSmile clear aligners provide an ideal solution for working professionals who need a discreet orthodontic option that won’t interfere with their career or social life.

The convenience of SureSmile is particularly valuable for busy adults with demanding schedules. Treatment requires fewer in-office visits compared to traditional braces, with appointments typically scheduled every 6-8 weeks. Additionally, the predictable treatment timeline allows adults to plan their orthodontic care around important life events.

At Roman Dental Arts, we’ve helped numerous adults achieve the smiles they’ve always wanted with SureSmile clear aligners. Whether you’re correcting issues that have bothered you for years or addressing teeth that have shifted after previous orthodontic treatment, our dentists can design a SureSmile treatment plan tailored to your specific needs and goals.

Are SureSmile clear aligners painful?

SureSmile clear aligners cause less discomfort than traditional braces. Patients typically experience mild pressure when switching to new aligners, indicating teeth are moving as planned.

How do I clean my SureSmile aligners?

Our dental team recommends rinsing your aligners with lukewarm (never hot) water whenever you remove them.
