Invisalign Teen: The Clear Choice for Teenagers
Teenagers have busy social lives — school, dating, sports, and hanging out with friends are all-important parts of life, and traditional braces may interfere with your teen reaching meaningful goals and feeling 100% confident in themselves during all these activities. For this reason, our orthodontist and team offer Invisalign treatment for teenagers. Invisalign teen treatment utilizes advanced technology and nearly invisible clear aligners to help your teenager achieve their smile goals without ever covering up the natural beauty of their teeth.
What Is Invisalign for Teens?
The Invisalign teen treatment system consists of a series of custom-made clear plastic aligners. These aligners are made using state-of-the-art computer technology, ensuring that they fit your teen’s mouth perfectly and give them a treatment that is both comfortable and effective — no metal brackets or wires needed! The aligners are virtually invisible and can be removed at any time, so your teen can take them out to eat, drink, brush, and floss. This makes it easy for your teen to continue with normal activities, such as playing sports and musical instruments.
The Treatment Process
First, our orthodontist will meet with you and your teenager to take scans of their mouth from which the aligners will be created. A series of aligners will be provided, each of which will make small adjustments to your teen’s tooth alignment. As they progress to new sets of aligners every few weeks, their teeth will gradually move into their optimal positions until your teen’s smile is picture-perfect. Your teenager will need to meet with Dr. Scott Werner at regular intervals throughout their treatment to ensure their smile is progressing as planned.
Keep in mind that while your teen’s aligners are removable, they still need to wear the aligners frequently to keep their smile on track. Your teen should wear their aligners 20-22 hours each day and only remove them to eat, drink, brush, or floss.
