The SureSmile® system provides a faster and more efficient orthodontic treatment compared to traditional braces. In fact, it can shorten treatment time by up to 40%. Many patients want straighter, healthier teeth but hesitate due to lengthy treatment periods. However, SureSmile® doesn’t speed up tooth movement—it improves precision, ensuring teeth move accurately at a natural pace.
With SureSmile® technology, dentists can examine your teeth in 3D from every angle to carefully plan your treatment. The braces are custom-made by a computer and respond to your body heat for optimal performance.

- Fewer orthodontic visits.
- Reduced soreness and discomfort.
- More precise and effective results.
- Shorter overall treatment duration.
How can SureSmile® benefit me?
Many patients find that SureSmile® delivers a straighter smile with less discomfort. Its precise technology maximizes the effectiveness of dental wires, which means fewer painful adjustment appointments.
Most people dislike frequent visits for brace adjustments due to the associated pain. SureSmile® minimizes these visits, promoting healthier and straighter teeth with less hassle. It’s suitable for almost anyone with generally healthy teeth and gums.
What should I expect when getting SureSmile® braces?
Your orthodontist will first check your mouth for any decay or gum issues, which must be addressed before starting treatment.
The process begins with detailed planning. Using a Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) scanner or an OraScanner, a precise 3D model of your teeth is created. These images reveal the exact positions of teeth, roots, nerves, and blood vessels.
Your dentist can simulate various treatment options using advanced 3D software, examining every angle to plan your best outcome. This software even allows a “look into the future” to see your final bite alignment.
Once the plan is set, the SureSmile® robot fabricates a custom Copper NiTi shape-memory archwire. This archwire applies gentle, constant pressure to guide your teeth into place.
Unlike traditional archwires, the SureSmile® archwire activates with your body heat and tightens automatically. This means fewer adjustments, less discomfort, and faster progress.
