Interested in straightening your teeth? Fortunately, you no longer need metal brackets and dark-colored wires to achieve the smile of your dreams. In fact, there are now several different types of braces available, including SureSmile<\/a> and Invisalign. As a result, patients have more options than ever before! If you\u2019re currently trying to decide if you should go the DIY clear aligners route or opt for treatment with your dentist, here are four reasons to choose the latter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

#1. Meticulous Preparation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In order to offer a lower cost, DIY clear aligner companies need to cut corners. Instead of starting treatment with a thorough dental exam, they bypass this crucial step altogether. As a result, serious oral health problems, like cavities and gum disease, can fly under the radar, potentially negatively affecting the movement of your teeth. Furthermore, the treatment plan relies on do-it-yourself impressions, which increases the chances of complications. Treatments with your dentist, on the other hand, begin with a thorough dental exam, highly accurate impressions, and meticulous preparation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

#2. Crafted from High-Quality Materials<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Another way that DIY clear aligner brands can cut down on costs is by using cheap plastic. Reputable companies, like SureSmile, on the other hand, are crafted from top-quality Essix ACE\u00ae plastic. Not only does this ensure precise tooth movements, but it also promotes comfort, ensuring a smoother, more comfortable treatment experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

#3. In-Person Supervision of a Dentist<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Although DIY clear aligner companies have check-ins with each patient, they are virtual and infrequent. Initially, that may sound like a benefit. However, it means a licensed dental professional isn\u2019t closely monitoring the progress (or lack thereof) and patients don\u2019t have a place to turn when complications arise. The good news is that treatment with SureSmile includes routine check-in appointments and<\/em> a close by dental team that\u2019s available to help should you have any concerns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

#4. Backed by Notable Dental Organizations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

DIY clear aligner brands market themselves as reliable and effective. Upon deeper investigation, you\u2019ll find that\u2019s not the case. In addition to having several lawsuits from unhappy patients, they do not have the support of notable dental organizations. In fact, the American Association of Orthodontists has even issued a consumer warning about the product! This is yet another reason why going with a trusted brand, like SureSmile, is the better option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When determining which orthodontic treatment is best, it is important to consider more than just the cost. After all, there is no room for error when it comes to your smile! So, if you\u2019re interested in addressing crooked, crowded, or misaligned teeth, talk to your dentist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
