Clear Aligners – San Ramon, CA
The Discreet Way to Straighten Your Smile
Maybe you didn’t receive the orthodontic treatment you needed as an adolescent? Perhaps you did have braces, but you forgot to wear your retainer? Whatever the case may be, you are now living with teeth that are crooked and it makes you feel self-conscious. Of course, the thought of wearing metal braces isn’t much better. Did you know there are solutions for busy adults to align their teeth with discretion and efficiency? It’s called Invisalign, and here’s what you should know about this innovative treatment.

- Custom-Tailored Orthodontic Treatment

How Do Clear Aligners Work?
Instead of using metal braces to straighten your teeth, clear aligners in San Ramon utilize clear plastic aligners that apply gentle pressure to gradually move your teeth. Because the aligners fit snug, they are virtually invisible, and they don’t interfere with your normal activities or with talking.
You’ll need to wear your aligners for at least 22 hours per day and change them every two weeks in order to achieve your desired results. However, aligners can often be changed at home, which means they require fewer visits to your dentist than traditional braces would.
How Long Do Clear Aligners Take to Complete?
Most clear aligner cases move quite efficiently and can typically be completed in 12 to 18 months with excellent patient compliance.
What are the Benefits of Choosing Clear Aligners?
Besides offering patients discretion, SureSmile also offers a number of other benefits for patients including:
- Aligners are comfortable and easy to wear, improving patient compliance
- There are no restrictions to your diet since aligners can easily be removed for eating
- Your home care routine is also simple since you can remove your aligners for brushing and flossing
- Aligners are smooth and don’t cause discomfort or sores like traditional braces tend to do
Who is a Candidate for Clear Aligners?
While SureSmile works well for many patients, it can’t correct complex jaw or bite issues. Dr. Deol is a certified Invisalign provider and he can determine if SureSmileis right for your needs and tell you exactly how long it will take to complete your treatment.
He will plan your treatment with 3D imaging that will even allow him to show you what your finished smile will look like if you decide to move forward with SureSmile.
How Much Do Clear Aligners Cost?
The cost of Clear Aligners varies with each individual case depending on the length and complexity of the treatment. Dr. Deol can let you know exactly how much your treatment will cost during your SureSmile consultation; however, it is typically comparable with traditional orthodontics.
Many dental insurance plans offer an orthodontic benefit that also includes SureSmile. Our insurance coordinator is happy to help you with the details of your benefits.
