Many people struggle with bite issues, like overbite, underbite, or crossbite. These problems not only affect the appearance of their smile but also lead to jaw discomfort and difficulty in chewing. This is where Spark™ aligners come in.
They are a modern solution that helps with teeth alignment and, in many cases, improves bite issues. In this blog, we learn how Spark™ Aligners work and what bite problems they can address. So, let’s begin!
What Are Spark™ Clear Aligners?
Spark™ Aligners are a modern orthodontic solution that straightens teeth without traditional metal braces. These aligners are made from BPA-free clear plastic, which makes them virtually invisible. Their discreet appearance makes them a popular choice among teens and adults.
Each set of Spark™ Aligners is custom-made, and patients have to wear them for about 20-22 hours a day. These aligners gradually shift your teeth, and unlike braces, they are removable, which allows you to remove them when you eat, brush, and floss without any disruption.
What Bite Problems Can Spark™ Aligners Help With?
Spark™ Aligners address different bite issues, especially mild to moderate ones that are caused by tooth position. However, skeletal problems may require additional orthodontic treatments.
When your teeth gradually shift into the right position, they can improve how your upper and lower teeth fit together, which indirectly improves your bite issues. Spark™ Aligners can help with the following bite problems when they are mild and dental in nature:
- Overbite: When your upper front teeth overlap with lower front teeth, these aligners can bring them into proper alignment by controlling tooth movement.
- Underbite: In mild cases where the underbite is caused mainly by tooth position, aligners may help improve how the teeth fit together.
- Crossbite: When upper teeth bite inside the lower teeth, they need aligners to help correct the misalignment. They mostly work for single-tooth or mild crossbites.
- Open Bite: In certain mild cases, aligners may help reduce open bites and improve bite function.
Spark™ Aligners are effective for many bite problems, however, severe bite issues may require additional orthodontic treatments.
