Summer brings warmth, freedom, and the perfect opportunity to invest in your smile. If you’ve been considering clear aligner treatment to straighten your teeth, there’s no better time than now to take that first step toward the confident smile you’ve always dreamed of.
At Sopris Smiles, we understand that timing matters when it comes to orthodontic treatment. Dr. Golnaz Samimifar and our experienced team have helped countless patients achieve beautiful, straight smiles through clear aligner therapy. Working with board-certified orthodontist Dr. Matt Stout from BeSmyle, we ensure every clear aligner treatment receives the highest level of attention and care.
Summer typically brings a more relaxed pace of life. Whether you’re a student on break or taking advantage of vacation time, you likely have greater flexibility in your schedule during these warmer months. Starting clear aligner treatment now means you can easily attend your initial consultation, fitting appointments, and follow-up visits without the stress of conflicting with work or school obligations.
Regular check-ins are essential for successful aligner treatment, and having that extra scheduling freedom during summer sets you up for success from day one.
Clear aligners require discipline and consistency, as most patients are instructed to wear their aligners for 20-22 hours per day, removing them only for meals and oral hygiene. Summer’s slower pace gives you the perfect opportunity to establish these new habits without the added pressure of busy fall schedules.
You’ll have time to get comfortable with removing and replacing your aligners for meals, develop your cleaning routine, and adapt to speaking with them in place. By the time your regular routine returns, these habits will feel completely natural.
Your body tends to heal more efficiently when you’re relaxed and well-rested. Summer often provides more opportunities for adequate sleep, stress reduction, and proper nutrition, all factors that can contribute to a more comfortable treatment experience.
The warm weather also encourages increased water intake, which helps promote saliva production and maintain good oral health, keeping you comfortable throughout your aligner treatment.
Starting your clear aligner journey in summer means you’ll see significant progress by fall. While complete treatment typically takes several months, many patients notice improvements in their smile within the first few months of treatment.
Imagine walking into the new school year or returning to work after summer break with a noticeably improved smile and the confidence that comes with it. That boost can set a positive tone for the entire year ahead.
Summer activities naturally align with habits that benefit orthodontic treatment. You’re likely drinking more water to stay hydrated, eating fresh fruits and vegetables, and maintaining more consistent meal times; all excellent for oral health.
The season’s emphasis on outdoor activities and overall wellness creates an environment where taking care of your smile feels like a natural extension of your healthy summer lifestyle.
Many dental insurance plans and flexible spending accounts operate on a calendar-year basis. Starting treatment in summer allows you to maximize your current year’s benefits while spreading the cost across two benefit periods if needed.
Additionally, using summer months to begin treatment means you can plan financially for the duration of your care without worrying about benefit renewals interfering with your treatment timeline.
Summer represents new beginnings, personal growth, and positive changes, making it the ideal time to invest in your smile. Clear aligner treatment offers a discreet, comfortable way to achieve the straight teeth you’ve always wanted, and starting during these warmer months provides numerous advantages for your comfort and success.
