Dental Implants Dentist in East Brunswick

Clear Aligners

A misaligned bite can negatively impact your oral health, not to mention make you feel self-conscious about your smile.

Unlike traditional braces, our SureSmile® clear aligners offer a discreet orthodontic solution to comfortably straighten your teeth.

Dr. Roger Lerner can customize your treatment at his East Brunswick, NJ, practice to improve your oral health and reveal a beautiful smile.

The Clear Aligner Difference

The Benefits of Straightening Your Teeth With SureSmile

There are many reasons why so many dental patients choose clear aligners to straighten their smiles:

Comfortable
and Precise Fit

Unlike braces, clear aligners are made of smooth plastic and have no rough edges that can rub on your cheeks and tongue. They are also custom designed to comfortably fit your smile while effectively shifting your teeth into proper alignment.

Discreet
While Wearing

Brackets and wires make braces noticeable, but SureSmile aligners are virtually invisible when worn. The clear plastic aligners fit snuggly around your teeth, letting you undergo treatment without your peers' or colleagues' knowledge.

Effective
Orthodontic Solution

Clear aligners are just as effective as braces at correcting mild to moderate misalignment. By straightening your smile, SureSmile aligners can improve your oral health and enhance your facial aesthetic in just six months.

You Don't Need to See an Orthodontist

for SureSmile Treatment

While traditional braces require regular visits to an orthodontist, Dr. Lerner can create your customized aligner treatment plan right at his East Brunswick practice. Through SureSmile, our experienced dentist can provide the same transformative results as an orthodontist.

SureSmile vs. Invisalign

What Is the Difference?

All clear aligner brands work to reposition your teeth without needing an orthodontist or braces. However, not all aligners are the same.

SureSmile

SureSmile uses advanced orthodontic technology to create quick results. The average length of treatment for SureSmile aligners is six months, making it a more cost-effective option than Invisalign® clear aligners. SureSmile is also made with Essix ACE® Plastic, a durable dental material that many patients report being more comfortable than Invisalign. Through SureSmile aligners, you can achieve your dream smile discreetly and quickly.

Invisalign

Invisalign is a brand of aligners that uses clear plastic trays to gradually shift your teeth into alignment. The Invisalign trays are made of medical-grade polyurethane resin, which some patients have reported being less transparent than SureSmile. Invisalign typically takes 12 to 18 months to achieve the desired results, meaning it requires more sets of aligners. This can increase your cost compared to the six-month timeline of SureSmile.

Are You a Good SureSmile Candidate?

Exploring Clear Aligners Candidacy

Most patients with mild to moderate misalignment make good SureSmile candidates. During your consultation at our East Brunswick practice, Dr. Lerner will review your oral health and cosmetic goals to determine your candidacy.

Commitment

You must wear your aligners for at least 22 hours daily to achieve your desired results. Good SureSmile candidates are committed to following Dr. Lerner's wear instructions.

Good Oral Health

Patients must be in good oral health before undergoing treatment. Issues like tooth decay or gum disease need to be treated before wearing your aligners.

Good Dental Hygiene

Patients should practice good dental hygiene habits before starting treatment. Teeth and gums should be kept clean to prevent residual food particles from sitting on your teeth while wearing your aligners.

What To Expect

During Your Clear Aligner Treatment

SureSmile clear aligners can transform your smile in just six months.

1

Consultation

You will first come to our East Brunswick office to have a consultation with Dr. Lerner. He will review your oral health and goals to create a SureSmile treatment plan suited to meet your needs.

2

Impressions

We use digital impressions to create your clear aligner treatment plan. These scans are more comfortable and more detailed than traditional putty impressions.

3

Fabrication

Your digital impressions will be sent to a SureSmile lab, which will design and fabricate your aligners. Each aligner will be made to perfectly fit your teeth and gradually shift them into alignment over the course of two weeks.

4

Treatment

Once your aligners are made, you will come back to our East Brunswick office to pick up your custom trays and go over your treatment timeline with Dr. Lerner.

5

Checkups

You will return to our practice each month so Dr. Lerner can ensure your clear aligners are properly moving your teeth. While your clear aligners are removable, each set should be worn for two weeks and at least 22 hours a day.

Caring for Your Clear Aligners

How To Ensure Your Teeth and Gums Stay Healthy

Follow Dr. Lerner's care instructions to ensure you have a beautiful, healthy smile at the end of treatment.

Clean Your Aligners

Clean your aligners by using a denture or retainer cleaner. Do not use a toothbrush and toothpaste, as this can scratch and cloud your aligners, making them more visible when worn.

Keep Aligners Safe

One of the benefits of SureSmile is that unlike the brackets and wires of braces, your trays are removable. Be sure to keep them in a safe place where they cannot be lost or damaged when they are removed.

Brush and Floss

Be sure to continue to brush twice daily and floss once daily to remove residual food and drink particles and keep your teeth and gums healthy.

Contact Our Office

Contact our East Brunswick practice if your aligners have been lost or damaged. Dr. Lerner can advise you on the next steps to best maintain your treatment timeline.

Maintain a Straight, Healthy Smile

SureSmile Creates Lasting Results

With proper care and oral hygiene, your SureSmile results will last a lifetime. After treatment, Dr. Lerner will fit you with a customized retainer to ensure your teeth remain in their new position and your smile stays healthy.
