Clear Aligners Bournemouth - Dorset Orthodontics

There is a solution to having straighter teeth without having to wear the traditional unsightly metal braces. Known as invisible orthodontics, this type of treatment offers you the choice of wearing a clear and sometimes removable appliance while straightening and aligning your teeth.

This is often a favourable option for adults who have professional careers and don’t feel comfortable wearing unsightly ‘train track’ braces for months on end. The technology behind invisible orthodontics is highly advanced and often gives patients a much shorter treatment time, depending on their individual cases.

Here is an overview of how they work:

They straighten teeth discreetly, and some can even be removed periodically, making them easier to fit around your hectic lifestyle.
They straighten teeth much more quickly than traditional braces, starting from as little as six months.
They are more comfortable than traditional braces because they use less force and modern wire technology.

Life benefits

Straighter teeth are healthier teeth.
Having an attractive smile will have a positive effect on your confidence.
Invisible braces are a long-term investment in your oral health.

Spark Aligners

Here at Dorset Orthodontics, we are proud to use Spark, an advanced clear aligner system. Using a series of clear plastic aligners that are tailor-made for your mouth, Spark allows your teeth to move into their desired position, giving you that perfect smile you’ve always wanted.

How do Spark aligners work?

Just like Invisalign®, Spark aligners are custom-fitted to your teeth. Much like a mouthguard you use for sports and other activities, these aligners are removable and can be taken out for you to enjoy food and drink as normal.

Over a period of time, Spark aligners will move your teeth into their desired position - every couple of weeks, you’ll change your aligner to allow our treatment to progress.

What are the benefits of Spark aligners?

The Spark aligner system offers the following features and benefits:

They’re nearly invisible: Spark aligners are essentially the most clear/invisible aligner available on the market today.

They offer increased comfort: Each custom-made aligner is hand-trimmed and smoothed, and is scalloped around each tooth.

They’re stain-resistant: Spark aligners have been proven to have increased stain resistance when compared to other aligners.

They’re hypoallergenic: These aligners are BPA, mercury, latex and phthalate free
