Spark Clear Aligners in Phoenix
You deserve a beautiful smile at any age. Our invisible braces are a discreet, convenient treatment that fits your lifestyle. Having a beautiful smile is important for everyone. When you know your teeth are straight and even, you feel more confident.
Also, a row of evenly spaced teeth makes it harder for food to get stuck in between them. That can lower your risk of periodontal disease and tooth decay, which is why orthodontic treatment in Northern Phoenix, AZ is so important. This treatment helps your mouth stay healthy while making your smile look great just like any cosmetic dentistry procedure does.
Straighter Teeth with Orthodontics
Orthodontics is a specialty in dentistry that deals with the position of your teeth and how they come together when you bite.
Crooked teeth are a typical concern, especially after baby teeth fall out and are replaced by adult teeth. However, malocclusion (or a bite that doesn’t work properly) can also be addressed by orthodontics. Overbites and underbites are probably the most common forms.
When your bite isn’t right, your teeth can get worn spots in the enamel. And if your teeth are crooked, food can get stuck between them more easily.
Invisible Braces for Subtle Treatment
We know wearing metal braces can be embarrassing no matter how old you are. Instead, you can choose “invisible treatments” with Spark clear aligners instead of braces.
Spark clear aligners use clear plastic trays similar to customized mouth guards. They rest comfortably on your teeth and move them gently into their proper positions. Because they’re made using a crystal-clear plastic material, they are practically invisible when you wear them.
Your First Orthodontic Visit
Your first appointment for orthodontics at our Northern Phoenix, AZ, dental office is mostly a chance to speak with Dr. Matthew Cavendish and explore your options. We will examine your teeth to get a better idea of what needs to happen. Next, Dr. Cavendish will discuss your goals (what you want your smile to look like) and recommend orthodontic treatments accordingly.
Orthodontic After-Care
Spark Clear Aligners can be done in much less time than metal braces. Some people complete treatment in six months! To help prevent your teeth from sliding back, you’ll receive a retainer when the orthodontic treatment is complete. The retainer is worn at night and helps maintain the new position of your teeth so you don’t have to get a second orthodontic treatment in the future.
Avoid Braces with Preventive Orthodontics
There are also orthodontic treatments that help prevent problems, not just fix them. Preventive orthodontics can take many forms, but they all help keep your teeth where they belong, so you don’t have to undergo lengthy orthodontic treatment. We can provide express versions of Spark Clear Aligners for preventive orthodontics, as well.
