Clear aligners are an orthodontic treatment used to move teeth to a more desired position for aesthetic and health purposes. Spark Clear aligners are custom designed and manufactured based on the patient's 3D scan and the treatment plan designed by the doctor using Spark's approval software program. As you replace each aligner with the next in the series, your teeth will gradually move until the final alignment is achieved. Ideally, patients should wear their Spark aligners 22 hours a day, only removing them to eat, drink, or brush their teeth.
Each set of Spark aligners is unique and pre-programmed to achieve specific dental movements. As you wear your aligners for about 22 hours a day, they'll exert a gentle, sustained force to gradually move your teeth into place. You'll switch to a new tray every week, and your smile will gradually straighten and your bite will improve. Spark Clear aligners are manufactured by Ormco, a world leader in innovative orthodontic products with 60 years of orthodontic experience, R&D and high manufacturing standards.
They also have polished and scalloped edges, making them softer than other aligners and, in turn, more comfortable. Other transparent aligners, the main difference for the patient is that, thanks to the TruGen material, Spark aligners are clearer and do not stain less. Orthodontists around the world use Spark clear aligners to treat a wide variety of patient malocclusions, such as open bite, deep bite, overbite (class II), underbite (class III), crossbite, overcrowding and spacing. The cost of Spark Clear Aligners is determined by each individual provider and is based on factors such as the complexity of the case and the duration of treatment.
However, as your tongue becomes accustomed to having aligners in your mouth, any eyebrows or mild speech impairment caused by the aligners should go away. If Spark aligners are right for your particular case, a digital model of your teeth will be created, from which custom aligners will be manufactured. With this treatment option you can expect to see results in as little as 6 months depending on the complexity of your case.
