SmileShare Pompano Beach, FL
SmileShare™ clear aligners are a safe and effective alternative to traditional braces. Dental professionals use this treatment to straighten crooked or misaligned teeth and correct malocclusions. SmileShare is a series of clear plastic aligners that fit securely over misaligned teeth and move them into the correct position over time.
SmileShare aligners are available at Emergency Dental & Dentures in Pompano Beach and the surrounding area. This treatment is used to straighten teeth and enhance a patient's smile. It also improves overall oral health by bringing teeth into their proper positions to improve functionality.
You may be a candidate for this treatment if you have small gaps between teeth or minor misalignment. Our practitioners are happy to develop a customized treatment plan to give you a beautiful smile. Call us at (954) 642-1695 to schedule an appointment to see if SmileShare is the right orthodontic solution for you.
Candidates for SmileShare Treatment
According to WebMD, the appropriate candidates for clear aligners such as SmileShare are adults and teens. Children's mouths are changing as they grow and develop. Therefore, designing clear aligners for younger patients can be complex and may not create lasting changes due to how a child's mouth is still in development.
Additionally, clear aligners are generally recommended for treating mild to moderate alignment and crowding issues. More severe malocclusions such as severe underbite, overbite, or crossbite may require more aggressive and complex treatment. Some patients prefer to receive SmileShare following another dental treatment.

The SmileShare Process
The SmileShare process starts with measuring the mouth. According to the SmileShare website, this process can utilize a digital scanner or traditional methods, such as X-rays and impressions. These measurements help create a model of the patient's mouth.
After reviewing those models, the dentist makes any necessary changes to the treatment plan. Following this, the professional or a dental lab will fabricate the initial aligners. We will then provide the aligners to the patient to wear for at least 23 hours per day when not eating.
As the process continues, the dentist may take new measurements and update the treatment plan. These check-ins help reflect the small changes that naturally occur during treatment. The plan is managed by the dentist and a team of highly trained technicians.

Differences Between Regular Aligners and SmileShare
Many aligner brands are available, but over-the-counter devices are often ineffective and uncomfortable. In contrast, SmileShare devices require a prescription from a certified orthodontist, complying with the new regulations set in place by the FDA at the request of the American Dental Association. Regular aligners often consist of standard plastic or acrylic, but SmileShare appliances consist of medical-grade material to enhance durability. The amount of pressure from the devices allows this treatment solution to move teeth more quickly than other aligners can.

Things to Avoid with SmileShare
According to the American Association of Orthodontics, patients should never eat without first removing their SmileShare devices. People should avoid colored beverages such as juices and sodas while wearing aligners. Patients should not take the aligners out for extended periods of time. They need to be worn a minimum of 20 hours per day to be effective.
This treatment is rarely used on children because their teeth continue to shift as they grow. Aligners are ideal for correcting minor misalignment of teeth. Patients who have severe malocclusions or major misalignment may need more extensive intervention.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q. How long does the SmileShare treatment process take?
A. The severity of the patient's misalignment or malocclusion determines how long it takes teeth to shift into their proper positions. Most patients achieve their desired results in less than two years. Some adults who wore braces as a child and need a minor adjustment may see results in as little as 10 weeks.
Q. Is SmileShare comfortable?
A. Because aligners are designed to shift teeth, patients should expect to experience minor discomfort for a few days after receiving new aligners. This discomfort should decrease as teeth adjust to the new positioning. Patients may take over-the-counter medications such as Aleve®, Motrin®, or Tylenol® to relieve minor pain.
Q. How should SmileShare aligners be cleaned?
A. SmileShare™ aligners should be rinsed with cold water when removed. They are easy to clean with soap and water each night. Patients should always brush their teeth before replacing aligners to keep them clean.
Q. What are the benefits of SmileShare devices?
A. These aligners are discreet and effective. They also move teeth more quickly than traditional braces do. Aligners are removable, making it easy for patients to brush their teeth and floss effectively.
Q. Who is a good candidate for SmileShare?
A. Patients with minor teeth misalignment are good candidates for this treatment. It works well for teens and adults. Patients with severe malocclusions may be advised to seek an alternative treatment.
Q. What are SmileShare aligners made of?
A. Most aligners are made from a clear plastic or acrylic resin. SmileShare devices consist of thermoformed material. This makes them more durable than other aligners.
