SureSmile®

Dr Guthrie Carr has offered SureSmile for his patients with braces since 2013. Suresmile is the most advanced and complete technology in braces. SureSmile offers a 3D analysis (including teeth, roots, bone, and smile) and simulation tools to design your best customized result. Virtual archwires are created from your engineered result and sent to a robot to bend your fully custom memory archwires to achieve your ideal result.

AVERAGE TREATMENT TIME WITH SURESMILE IS 30% OR MORE FASTER THAN CONVENTIONAL BRACES.*

(*Based on a comparison of 1,849 patients treated conventionally and 4,376 patients treated with SureSmile.)

Through the use of SureSmile technology, your orthodontist can offer you a “braces experience” that provides:

  • Shorter treatment times
  • Fewer office visits
  • Less overall discomfort
  • High-quality results

Our technology-driven orthodontic process offers several important benefits that make the whole “braces experience” much easier for patients than conventional orthodontics!

SHORTER TREATMENT TIMES

You’ve probably heard from friends or family that wearing braces is a long-term commitment, taking more than two years on average. With SureSmile orthodontic treatment, getting braces isn’t what it used to be. You’ll get outstanding results in less time with SureSmile technology.

FEWER OFFICE VISITS

With SureSmile, patients spend less time in treatment and make fewer visits to the orthodontist. The custom SureSmile archwire provides smoother movement for a more comfortable experience than traditional braces. And by quickly returning to a normal oral hygiene routine, maintaining healthy teeth and gums is easier.

LESS OVERALL DISCOMFORT

Anyone who has worn braces will probably tell you that wire adjustments and changes were the least favorite part of the process due to discomfort. Fortunately, the SureSmile system is engineered to maximize the therapeutic efficiency of each wire, significantly reducing the number of adjustments needed. This means fewer episodes of discomfort over the course of your treatment.

HIGH-QUALITY RESULTS

Instead of the doctor bending an archwire by hand, a SureSmile wire is custom-shaped by a robot. When the wire is inserted, each tooth moves directly to the prescribed position. It’s this precise movement that enables such great results with a shorter treatment time.
