Sure Smile Aligners

Get a Perfect Smile in Less Time!

Forget traditional metal braces that are painful and embarrassing; ask for Sure Smile Aligners. You’ll spend less time in the dentist’s chair and more time doing the things you love. More importantly, most people won’t even know you’re wearing braces!

The SureSmile® Aligners Process

The SureSmile® process is straightforward, comfortable, and designed with your lifestyle in mind. Treatment length varies based on your individual needs, but many patients see results in as little as six (6) to eighteen (18) months. Here’s what you can expect from start to finish:

Initial Consultation – Our team will review your smile goals and overall oral health, then recommend a personalized SureSmile® treatment plan.

Advanced Digital Imaging – Using precise 3D scans, photos, and x-rays, we’ll capture every detail of your teeth to design your custom aligners.

Creation of Custom Aligners – SureSmile® aligners are designed with advanced software to ensure a snug, comfortable fit that guides your teeth into alignment.

Progress Toward Your Perfect Smile – You’ll wear each set of aligners for about two weeks before moving on to the next. Each stage gently shifts your teeth closer to your desired result.

Maintaining Your Smile – Once treatment is complete, you’ll receive clear retainers to help preserve your new smile for years to come.


The Benefits of SureSmile® Aligners

SureSmile® aligners are a modern, discreet way to straighten teeth without the hassle of traditional braces. With smooth, nearly invisible trays, most people won’t even notice you’re wearing them. Key benefits include:

Discreet Appearance – Clear, comfortable aligners let you smile with confidence throughout treatment.

Flexibility – Enjoy your favorite foods without restrictions. Just remove your aligners while eating and pop them back in afterward.

Better Oral Hygiene – Since aligners are removable, you can brush and floss as usual to keep your teeth and gums healthy.

Comfortable Fit – SureSmile® aligners are designed with precision to minimize irritation—no wires, brackets, or metal parts to poke your cheeks or gums.

Efficient Results – Advanced planning technology helps create predictable, efficient tooth movement, often in less time than traditional braces.


SureSmile® Aligners Cost

Many patients find SureSmile® aligners to be an affordable alternative to metal braces. The total cost depends on the complexity and duration of your treatment, but in most cases, SureSmile® is comparable in price to traditional braces.

Most dental insurance plans that include orthodontic benefits will cover part of the treatment. If insurance doesn’t apply, you can also use Flexible Spending Account (FSA) or Health Savings Account (HSA) funds. Our office also offers financing options and accepts all major credit cards.

Frequently Asked Questions About Service

Is Invisalign® better than traditional braces?

There are many things to consider when determining which treatment may be best for you. This includes your lifestyle, how quickly you’d like to see results, and your budget. For many, Invisalign® is the better option because it allows more flexibility with eating and playing contact sports, and the treatment time is typically shorter.

Will Invisalign® work with veneers?

Invisalign® slowly adjusts the position of your teeth, so even if you have veneers, it will effectively improve your smile. Invisalign® can also be used on patients who have fillings and crowns.

How long is the treatment period?

The treatment period will depend on the complexity of your case. On average, adults complete the treatment within 12 months. Adolescents can vary between six and twelve months.

How do I clean my aligners?

Aligners are easy to maintain. Simply brush and rinse them daily with lukewarm water.

How often must I wear my aligners?

Aligners must be worn throughout the day and night. You should only remove them while eating, brushing and flossing your teeth, or during certain activities. Best results are achieved when they are worn for 22+ hours per day.

What happens after I complete the treatment?

Your dentist will likely recommend the use of a retainer to help prevent your teeth from gradually shifting back to their initial position.

How much does Invisalign® cost?

The cost of your Invisalign® treatment will vary based on treatment type and treatment length. After your initial consultation, we will discuss your treatment options and review financial options. We will help you maximize your orthodontic insurance benefits and offer several financing options to help make the treatment fit into your budget.

What our patients say

I had a great experience with the dental group of St. JOHN'S DENTISTRY. They were very professional. Their office is bright and roomy. Plenty of seating even though I didn't wait long to see the technician, Danielle . She was proficient and expedient in taking my x-rays. All the equipment was state of the art. The pictures were available immediately and on view right before me on the computer screen. Dr. Dan came in right after and went over a treatment plan. I have always had anxiety going to the dentist. They were totally understanding and compassionate to my needs. I highly recommend this dental office in St. Augustine.
