Spark Aligners
Discover how Spark Aligners can straighten your teeth discreetly and comfortably, allowing you to maintain your confidence throughout your smile transformation journey.
Consider Spark Aligners to achieve the beautiful straight teeth you’ve always wanted — without the need for braces.
How Spark Aligners Work
The Spark Aligner system is made of clear, comfortable aligners that fit over your teeth and are designed to straighten your smile. They’re removable, making it easier to eat, drink, brush, and floss.
Spark Aligners offer a more comfortable alternative to traditional metal braces and can deliver stunning results.
We begin by taking photos and X-rays to create a detailed 3D image of your mouth.
From these images, we create your first set of custom-fitted aligners, and you’ll start the process of straightening your teeth.
The Spark Aligner Treatment Process
You will likely wear Spark Aligners for 9–15 months and typically use 18–30 sets during your treatment.
You’ll wear the aligners for about 22 hours a day, but can remove them for brushing your teeth and eating. Based on your individual treatment plan, you’ll go through several sets of aligners and will begin to notice changes in just a few months!
Spark Aligners take a modern approach to straightening teeth. Each set of aligners is custom-made for you. These trays are smooth, comfortable, and nearly invisible, fitting snugly over your teeth.
Wearing the aligners will gradually shift your teeth into the proper position, based on the specific movements planned by your orthodontist. There are no metal brackets to attach and no wires to tighten. Every two weeks or so, you’ll switch to a new set of aligners until your treatment is complete.
You’ll get a beautiful smile without a treatment that disrupts your daily life. The best part is that most people won’t even notice you’re straightening your teeth.
This nearly invisible method for straightening your teeth is revolutionizing orthodontic care. Our doctors have extensive experience treating patients with Spark Aligners, and we’re thrilled to offer this advanced technology to our patients in Cedar Hills, UT.
Differences Between Spark Aligners and Braces
Unlike traditional braces, smooth plastic Spark Aligners don’t have metal components that can irritate your mouth. Since they’re removable for eating, you don’t have to avoid certain foods like you would with braces – enjoy popcorn, nuts, and all your favorites.
In fact, aligners must be removed for eating and drinking anything other than water. Make sure you’re comfortable with this aspect before deciding on Spark Aligners.
To prevent staining, it’s important to clean your teeth before putting the aligners back in after each meal.
Brushing and flossing are also much easier compared to traditional braces, since you don’t need to work around brackets and wires.
Responsibilities with Spark Aligners
It’s crucial to wear your aligners for at least 22 hours a day to achieve the desired results. However, with Spark Aligners, you can remove them for special occasions.
Like with traditional braces, you’ll typically need to wear a retainer after treatment to maintain your new alignment—and your beautiful, confident smile.
Spark Aligners may not be recommended for certain complex alignment or bite issues, or for those with bridgework. Your orthodontist will advise you on the best treatment options for your needs.
