A new technology straightens teeth faster and better than before, Orthodontists with conventional technique have to manually bend wires, which can lead to small amounts of under- or over-correction and extend treatment time. Average treatment time for braces is between 20 and 24 months.A new system called SureSmile uses computers and robotic manipulation of the archwire to increase accuracy in orthodontic planning and speed treatment times, also suresmile use Shape Memory Alloy which also known as a smart alloy, memory metal, or muscle wire. Shape Memory Alloy remembers its target position and permanently retains its customized prescription, using body heat (mouth heat).

Three Steps to a SureSmile

  1. Digital imaging with the OraScanner which creates a 3-D digital model of your mouth, showing the exact position of every tooth.
  2. Computer modeling with SureSmile Treatment Planning Software allows the orthodontist to manipulate the digital model of your teeth and create a plan for your ultimate smile.
  3. Robotic hands, guided by the SureSmile software, precision-bend Shape Memory Alloy archwires that work with your body heat to shorten treatment time.

The average length of SureSmile treatment is 40% less time than conventional techniques. For example, treatments estimated to take two years with traditional orthodontics may take only 12 to 15 months using SureSmile, also this technique doesn’t move the teeth faster? it’s just about efficiency.
