KL Owen, Spark, and LightForce
If you’re exploring orthodontic options and feeling overwhelmed by the choices, let’s break down three advanced systems—KL Owen Braces, Spark Aligners, and LightForce Braces—to help you make an informed decision tailored to your needs.
KL Owen Braces: Precision Meets Personalization
KL Owen Braces are custom-designed self-ligating braces that eliminate the need for elastic ties, reducing friction and potentially shortening treatment time. Each bracket is digitally tailored to fit your teeth, enhancing comfort and efficiency. Available in metal or clear ceramic, they offer a less noticeable alternative to traditional braces.
Spark Aligners: Discreet and Comfortable
Spark Clear Aligners are clear, removable trays made from TruGEN™ material, known for its clarity and resistance to staining. These aligners are custom-fitted using 3D imaging, ensuring a snug and comfortable fit. They’re effective for a wide range of cases, including complex malocclusions.
LightForce Braces: Cutting-Edge Customization
LightForce Braces utilize 3D printing technology to create ceramic brackets that match the unique shape of each tooth. This level of customization allows for precise alignment and can lead to fewer appointments. The tooth-colored brackets blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, offering a discreet option.
Ideal for: Patients seeking a fixed, yet discreet and personalized orthodontic treatment.
