SureSmile® Aligners Offer Discreet, Effective Treatment
SureSmile® aligners work by using a sequence of clear plastic trays that gently move your teeth over time. Each aligner is custom-made using precise scans and digital models of your teeth, allowing for accurate planning and predictable results. The smooth, virtually invisible design makes these aligners ideal for daily wear, at work, school, or social events.
Because they’re removable, SureSmile® aligners also make it easier to eat, clean your teeth, and maintain oral hygiene throughout treatment. If you’ve been searching for a subtle solution, SureSmile® aligners provide both discretion and flexibility.

Why CAS Matters
No more waiting weeks for your first tray, get started immediately with superior fit, fewer attachments and faster progress.
How SureSmile Ortho Treatment Works
A SureSmile® ortho treatment starts with a detailed consultation and 3D digital scan. Our orthodontist creates a personalised treatment plan using SureSmile’s software, mapping out the ideal position for each tooth. This technology also allows for minor refinements along the way, improving accuracy and efficiency.
Once your SureSmile® aligner trays are ready, you’ll wear each set for about two weeks, gradually moving your teeth into place. The number of trays and overall treatment time vary by case, but most patients complete their plan within 6 to 18 months.
You’ll also attend regular check-ups, where we monitor progress and provide your next sets of aligners.
Who Can Use SureSmile® Aligners?
SureSmile® is suitable for teens and adults who want to straighten their teeth with minimal disruption to their lifestyle. It works well for mild to moderate orthodontic issues such as:
- Crowded or overlapping teeth
- Gaps and spacing
- Overbites, underbites, and crossbites
- Relapse movement after previous braces
At your consultation, we’ll assess if SureSmile® aligners are the right fit for your smile or if another option, like Spark teeth aligners or Invisalign in Melbourne, might be more suitable.
SureSmile® can also be a good choice if you’re returning to orthodontics after earlier treatment or are looking for a more discreet alternative to fixed braces.

FAQs – SureSmile® Aligners
How long does SureSmile® treatment take?
Most SureSmile® cases take between 6 and 18 months. We’ll give you a detailed estimate at your first appointment based on your goals and alignment needs.
What is Consultation Aligner Start (CAS)?
CAS lets you start aligner treatment immediately. We scan, print and supply your first tray on the same day as your consult (simple cases only, premium fee and subject to availability).
Are SureSmile® aligners comfortable?
Yes. The aligners are made from smooth, BPA-free plastic and designed for a snug fit. You may feel mild pressure when switching trays, but this typically settles in a day or two.
Are SureSmile Wires used with SureSmile Aligners?
No, SureSmile Wires power our fixed‐brace systems (metal, ceramic, lingual), delivering up to 40% faster movement. SureSmile Aligners are the removable‐tray counterpart for straightforward cases.
Can I eat with SureSmile® aligners?
No, you’ll need to remove them before eating or drinking anything other than water. This helps prevent staining and maintains hygiene.
Is SureSmile® better than braces?
It depends on your case. SureSmile® is great for mild to moderate issues and suits people looking for a more discreet option. For more complex corrections, fixed braces may be more effective.
Can I get truly invisible braces instead?
Yes. Our lingual braces use SureSmile Wires and Incognito‐style brackets hidden behind your teeth; no one ever sees your appliance.
How do SureSmile® Aligners differ from Invisalign®?
- Same‐Day CAS option: Only our aligners can start on Day 1.
- Bespoke resin & printing: Direct‐Print technology yields superior fit and fewer attachments.
- Faster outcomes: Enhanced control often reduces treatment time and refinements.
Does private health insurance cover SureSmile® aligners?
Some health insurance plans offer orthodontic rebates. We can help you check your cover and explain your entitlements during your consultation.
