Spark Clear Aligners

in Reno, NV

Spark clear aligners offer a discreet, comfortable way to straighten your smile without brackets or wires. At The Smile Studio Personalized Orthodontics, we use the Spark Aligner System to help patients achieve healthier alignment with a treatment experience designed around clarity, comfort, and confidence.

What are Spark aligners?

Spark clear aligners are a modern orthodontic treatment designed to gradually move your teeth using a series of custom-made, removable trays. Unlike braces, Spark aligners are nearly invisible, easy to take out for meals and brushing, and designed to fit comfortably over your teeth. Spark’s TruGEN™ material is known for being clearer, more comfortable, and more stain-resistant than leading aligner materials. At The Smile Studio Personalized Orthodontics, your treatment begins with a free consultation, including photos, x-rays, and a one-on-one conversation with one of our doctors to determine whether Spark aligners are the right fit for your smile.

Create your custom aligner plan

If Spark aligners are the right option for your smile, our doctors will create a personalized treatment plan. This plan maps out how your teeth will move over time and helps us design a series of clear aligners made specifically for you.

Wear your aligners as directed

Once your aligners are ready, you’ll wear each set according to your doctor’s instructions. Spark aligners are removable, but consistent wear is key to keeping treatment on track and getting the best possible results.

Spark aligners vs. traditional braces

Spark aligners

Spark aligners use a series of removable clear trays to gradually guide your teeth into better alignment. Because they are nearly invisible, removable, and made without brackets or wires, they can be a great fit for patients who want a more discreet orthodontic experience. You can take them out to eat, drink, brush, and floss, making it easier to maintain your normal routine during treatment.

Traditional braces

Traditional braces use brackets and wires to move teeth over time. They are highly effective for many orthodontic needs, especially more complex cases, but they are fixed to the teeth throughout treatment. Spark aligners may be a better fit for patients who want a lower-profile option and are able to wear their aligners as directed each day.

FAQs

Have questions? We’ve got answers.

Spark and Invisalign are both clear aligner systems, but they use different materials and design features. Spark aligners are made with TruGEN™ material, which is designed to be clearer, more comfortable, and more stain-resistant than leading aligner materials. During your consultation, we’ll explain your options and help determine whether Spark aligners are right for your smile.

For clear aligners to work properly, they need to be worn consistently. Most patients are instructed to wear their aligners for most of the day and night, removing them only for eating, drinking anything other than water, brushing, and flossing. Your doctor will give you specific instructions based on your treatment plan.

With Spark Aligners, it’s normal to experience mild soreness as you transition from one set of aligners to the next. This is a normal sign that your aligners are guiding your teeth into their next position. Most patients adjust quickly, and any discomfort is usually temporary.

It is not recommended to eat while wearing your Spark Aligners. Eating with them can stain or damage the aligners and trap food against your teeth, increasing the risk of cavities. Remove them before eating, then brush your teeth before putting them back in.. After eating, brush your teeth before putting your aligners back in so your smile stays clean and healthy throughout treatment.

How long does Spark aligner treatment take?

Treatment time depends on your bite, alignment, and how consistently you wear your aligners. Some patients may only need minor movement, while others require a longer plan. At your consultation, we’ll give you a personalized estimate based on your smile.
