New Smile Treatment

At this time, orthodontists are required to use bended wires physically to make adjustments in teeth, which can lead to very small quantity of under-correction or over-correction and longer treatment time. Regular medication time for braces is between twenty up to twenty-four months.

A new system called SureSmile makes use of computers and robotic treatment of the archwire to boost accuracy in orthodontic development and rapid treatment times.

“With the ability of the new technology to understand all the forces going on in the mouth, we are able to treat the total mouth, and so it reduces the amount of wires the patient needs,” said orthodontist Adam Weiss.

The orthodontist plans medication in a virtual atmosphere, using the 3-D scanning system.
