Crooked, crowded, or uneven teeth can make smiling feel uncomfortable and often make it difficult to properly clean between your teeth, raising the risk of decay and gum disease.
Many patients also experience jaw strain, uneven tooth wear, or a deflated sense of self-confidence due to misaligned teeth. With SureSmile® clear aligners in Des Moines, WA, you can enjoy comfortable, nearly invisible orthodontics designed to improve both your smile appearance and oral health.
SureSmile in Des Moines, WA can improve crowded teeth, gaps between teeth, mild bite issues, and uneven spacing that affect the appearance and function of your smile.
Clear aligners provide a discreet way to correct overlapping teeth that make brushing and flossing a daily challenge. Clear aligner treatment with comfortable, removable trays can also improve confidence by creating a straighter, healthier-looking smile!

Your SureSmile journey begins with detailed digital scans of your teeth at Des Moines Dental Center. From these scans, we create a customized treatment plan tailored to your specific smile goals. This roadmap maps out exactly how your teeth will move from start to finish.
Once your custom trays are ready, you’ll wear your aligners 20–22 hours per day for the best results. This means keeping them in consistently, removing them only to eat, drink, and brush. The more closely you stick to the recommended wear time, the more smoothly your treatment progresses.

About every 1–2 weeks, you’ll switch to a fresh set of aligner trays. Each new set is designed to gradually shift your teeth a little closer to their final position. This steady, gentle progression is what guides your smile into alignment over time.
Throughout your treatment, you’ll visit Des Moines Dental Center for regular progress check-ins. These appointments let us confirm your teeth are tracking as planned and make any needed adjustments. While most patients reach their desired results in 6 to 18 months, these check-ins keep your smile on course the whole way.
