SureSmile
Want to Know if You're a Candidate?
From crowded teeth to overbites and underbites, SureSmile can correct a variety of orthodontic concerns. When you meet with Dr. Oka, we can determine if SureSmile is right for you. If you're ready to explore the possibilities, contact us.
What Is SureSmile?
It's an Orthodontic Treatment
Simply put, SureSmile is a clear aligner system used by orthodontists and dentists alike to straighten teeth. Your custom aligners will gradually bring your teeth into alignment in about 12–18 months. When paired with our dentist's supervision, the results are nothing short of stunning.
It's Made by a Trusted Brand
If you've visited our practice before, you may already be familiar with the minds behind SureSmile aligners. These clear aligners are made by Dentsply Sirona, the same trusted company that made our advanced CBCT X-ray machine and our revolutionary CEREC® same-day crown machine.
It's Often Preferred Over Braces
Need an orthodontic treatment that fits in with your everyday life? SureSmile aligners have advantages that traditional braces can't offer. For instance, they're easily removed during mealtime, allowing you to bypass any dietary restrictions. They're also a great option for patients who want discreet and low-maintenance care.

As you can see, SureSmile's clear aligners blend in with your natural teeth. They allow you to proudly show off your smile—even before Dr. Oka finalizes your results.

Bolstered by Direct Company Assistance
One advantage SureSmile has over other clear aligners is its deep involvement from the manufacturer. It requires that every set of SureSmile aligner specifications is approved by the company's Digital Lab Specialists. This diligence combines their in-house experts' experience with our dentist's knowledge.
Plus, for added peace of mind, SureSmile provides a vast variety of treatment resources to the dentists who offer it. For instance, SureSmileU® Onboarding ensures that every case has the best resources. SureSmile also maintains an expansive selection of ongoing education options for dental professionals to participate in.

Excellent team of providers who are positive, safe, and caring. The ‘doc’ is cool. Laid back but professional. Comprehensive first-patient visit. Probably best dental experience ever for me.

How Does SureSmile Work?
-
Custom Planning and Design
Each SureSmile treatment from our practice is completely custom. Your aligners will be designed from precise scans of your own smile.
-
Precise SureSmile Fabrication
Because SureSmile aligners go through both our Kailua-Kona dentist and the company itself, they benefit from a detail-oriented set of quality controls.
-
Gradual Tooth Repositioning
Every new aligner will gradually reposition your teeth. You will switch them out every few weeks until you reach the final aligner.
What Do I Need to Do To Make My Treatment a Success?
Dr. Oka will do his due diligence, adjusting treatment as needed and approving your results when they are complete. Though your treatment is directly supervised by him, there's a lot you can do to ensure success, too.
Whether you've chosen ClearCorrect or SureSmile aligners, this simple formula for successful treatment remains the same.
