The Spark Dental Difference in Invisalign® Care
So, what truly sets Spark Dental apart? The difference lies in how Dr. Pham guides patients through the Invisalign process. Discover the Spark Dental difference with Dr. Chris Pham’s approach to Invisalign. His unique instructions and process separate Spark Dental from traditional Invisalign protocols.
1. Faster Tray Changes
Traditional Invisalign instructions often call for aligners to be worn for one to two weeks before switching to the next set. At Spark Dental, Dr. Pham has refined this process by moving patients to new trays every few days.
This accelerated timeline enables treatment to progress at a steady pace while maintaining safety and accuracy. Patients often report that their results progress more quickly than expected.
2. Eating With Your Aligners
Here’s where Spark Dental takes a bold step. Many Invisalign providers instruct patients to remove aligners while eating. Dr. Pham’s method is different. He teaches patients to eat with their aligners on.
Why? Because it removes the hassle of taking aligners in and out all day long. It reduces the risk of losing trays, simplifies compliance, and helps patients stay on track with 24-hour wear. The only times you’ll remove your aligners are to brush, floss, and rinse your mouth.
This approach may sound unusual at first, but patients quickly appreciate the convenience. Invisalign treatment with Dr. Chris Pham in San Diego helps patients adapt smoothly, as eating with your aligners on becomes second nature, and your treatment stays consistent around the clock.
3. Wear Aligners All the Time
While most Invisalign treatments emphasize 20–22 hours of wear, Dr. Pham simplifies it: wear your aligners all the time, 24 hours a day.
This eliminates the gray area of “acceptable hours” and helps patients understand a clear, single expectation. With continuous wear, treatment remains on track and results are achieved faster.
4. Progress Check-Ins
Another unique feature of the Spark Dental system is flexible progress check-ins.
Progress check-ins:
You won’t go through this alone. Every few weeks, you’ll return to Spark Dental for a quick progress check, if needed. Find out about Dr. Chris Pham’s dedicated Invisalign care at Spark Dental during these visits, as he confirms that your teeth are moving as planned and makes adjustments when necessary.
Instead of long appointments filled with technical jargon, Spark Dental makes each visit simple, reassuring, and goal-oriented.
Why This Approach Works
Dr. Pham’s Invisalign approach is not just different for the sake of being different. It’s designed to maximize results, minimize frustration, and improve compliance.
- Convenience: Eating with aligners on and changing trays more often reduces the interruptions in your daily routine.
- Consistency: Wearing aligners 24 hours a day ensures steady progress.
- Simplicity: Clear, straightforward instructions help patients avoid confusion.
- Confidence: Patients see changes sooner, which builds motivation to stay committed.
When patients follow Dr. Pham’s system, they often find Invisalign fits seamlessly into their lifestyle.
