10 Reasons Why Spark Aligners Are Ideal For Adults & Working Professionals
We all know the power of a big, beautiful smile – the type of smile that can light up a room and exude a strong sense of confidence. However, not everyone is born with a smile that they love. In fact, fewer than half of American adults feel confident with their smiles.1 But that doesn’t mean a person cannot obtain the smile of their dreams. Today, one in four orthodontic patients receiving aligner or braces treatment is an adult, according to the American Association of Orthodontists, and moving healthy teeth is safe even into one’s 70s and beyond.2
Now there are now more options available. The Spark™ Clear Aligner System is a great choice for active adults who want effective treatment that is nearly invisible for others to see. Spark Aligners are a doctor-directed clear aligner system that offers several key benefits over the competition and is well-suited for active lifestyles and busy professional careers. Spark is manufactured by Ormco, a global orthodontics company that orthodontists around the world trust for high-quality, innovative treatment solutions.
What are clear teeth aligners and how do clear aligners work?
Let’s begin with a basic primer. Clear aligners are nearly transparent, custom-made “trays” that tightly fit a patient’s teeth. Made from a plastic-like material, aligners are made to fit a patient’s teeth at different stages of his or her treatment. Each set of aligners is worn for one-three weeks, at least 22 hours a day, before moving on to the next set. Each aligner set is engineered to move the teeth incrementally, per the dentist’s treatment plan, until the desired alignment is reached. Tooth-colored attachments on the teeth will help aligners move teeth properly.3 Aligners can treat most mild and moderate cases of overbite, underbite, crossbite, open bite, crowding, and spacing. There may be instances where aligners may not be right for some severe cases. An orthodontic assessment can provide an accurate diagnosis and best treatment recommendations for you.
This article will outline 10 key benefits Spark Aligners offer busy adults:
- Clarity: One of the main reasons people choose clear aligners is for their discreteness. Spark Aligners are made with the latest innovation in clear aligner material (called TruGEN™), are nearly invisible and more clear than the leading aligner brand.4 This can keep you feeling confident and at your best throughout treatment as you move from meetings and workplace interactions to special events and evenings out.
- Comfort: Spark Aligners have scalloped and smoother edges and are more comfortable than the leading aligner brand.5
- Faster Treatment: Nobody wants to be in treatment longer than needed. Spark’s TruGEN™ material is designed for more efficient tooth movement than the leading aligner brand. This can lead to faster treatment and fewer office visits.6
