Our Practice Principal Dentist, Mark Travis, is a premier provider of the Spark system, so you’re in excellent hands for your teeth-straightening at Agincourt Dental.

Benefits summary
- Highly stain-resistant.
- Wireless and bracketless teeth-straightening.
- Eat and brush normally.
Flexibility and freedom – eat and brush with no barriers.
Spark aligners are highly appealing to patients who don’t like the idea of navigating metal wires and brackets when brushing, flossing and eating.
Our patients love being able to just take their Spark Aligners out and perform these functions 100% normally – no barriers.
With Spark Aligners, you have up to 4 hours each day when you can take the aligners out. Not only is this convenient for brushing, flossing and eating, but you can remove them for other tasks or activities like playing instruments and partaking in contact sports.
As predictable as it gets.
Spark Aligners use digital scanning software to take impressions of your teeth. This predetermines how your teeth will move and over what period. The result? A crystal-clear mock-up of how your teeth will look after treatment.
What to expect
Consultation
We offer multiple teeth-straightening solutions, so your consultation is a great time to come in and learn about these in more detail.
We can also examine your teeth to give you an idea of any limitations of certain braces, according to how mild or severe your teeth are out of position.
Preparation
The next step is to take the digital scans that will be used to make your set of custom Spark Aligners. When they’re sent back to the practice, you’ll be ready to start treatment.
Straightening
Wear your first aligner and change it over to the next in the sequence every week. We will invite you in for check-ups every 4-6 weeks.
Retainer
Once your teeth have reached their final position, you can start wearing your retainer at nighttime to retain your teeth in place.
