Ormco expands the Spark Clear Aligner portfolio with a customizable retainer system featuring proprietary TruGEN material and flexible ordering options.

Product Overview

Ormco’s Spark Retainers provide clinicians with a customizable, integrated solution for post-treatment retention within the Spark Clear Aligner portfolio. The clear retainer system is designed to maintain orthodontic results for patients who have completed treatment with clear aligners, digital bonding, or fixed bracket appliances. Spark Retainers are fabricated from TruGEN technology, the same material used for Spark Clear Aligners, which is engineered for high clarity, stain resistance, and long-term durability. According to the company, the material has been lab-tested to withstand at least 450 insertion and removal cycles.

Key Features

  • Constructed from proprietary TruGEN material
  • Customizable options including bite ramps, pontics, and adjustable trim lines
  • Flexible ordering quantities with no subscription required
  • Scalloped or extended coverage trim options for fit
  • Integration with the Ormco digital platform

Key Benefits

  • Provides high clarity and stain resistance for improved patient aesthetics
  • Allows clinicians to tailor retention protocols to specific patient needs
  • Reduces inventory costs by allowing practices to order only what is needed
  • Designed to enhance patient comfort and compliance
  • Simplifies practice workflow by managing cases on a single platform

Practical Application in the Practice

Spark Retainers are intended for use as a final retention appliance following any orthodontic modality. Clinicians can customize features like bite ramps or trim lines within the ordering platform to meet specific clinical requirements for maintaining the final occlusion and tooth position. The system’s integration into a single platform allows practices to manage patients transitioning from Spark Aligners, Damon Ultima braces, or other appliances.

Target User

The product is designed for orthodontists and clinical teams who use digital workflows and seek an integrated retention solution. It is suited for practices offering multiple treatment types that wish to streamline their processes by using a single vendor for both active treatment and retention phases.
