What is Invisalign Teen®?
For those seeking a discreet alternative to traditional metal braces, Invisalign® and Invisalign Teen® offer an almost invisible solution. With the clear plastic aligners being virtually undetectable, users will never have to worry about feeling insecure while smiling. As they progress through each set of aligned designed specifically for their teeth correction needs, they’ll be able to monitor their smile transformation over time.
Invisalign Teen® was specifically designed to address the unique needs of teenage patients. As a teen’s jaw is still developing, dentists must account for this continual growth when creating an orthodontic treatment plan. Thankfully, Invisalign Teen® allows them to do just that – providing teens with optimal results and a beautiful smile in no time at all.
Benefits of Invisalign Teen®
With metal braces not only being easily seen, but also disrupting a teenager’s active lifestyle by making it harder to speak and partake in sports or play instruments; Invisalign Teen® is the perfect orthodontic solution. Utilizing cutting-edge technology of Invisalign®, teens can achieve their ideal smile without having to adjust how they live their everyday lives. Beyond its invisibility, compared to standard braces there are other perks with Invisalign Teen®, such as:
- When you wear Invisalign Teen®, your peers and friends will never even know that you are wearing braces. Thanks to the virtually invisible clear plastic trays, you can feel confident about your smile without any embarrassment.
- Say goodbye to food restrictions. Many people with braces have had to sacrifice their favorite treats and snacks, but that’s not the case with Invisalign Teen®. With this option, you’ll never be forced to turn down a delicious dish or snack since the aligners are completely removable. No more compromising on your comfort when it comes time for dinner.
- Embrace the life you dream of. Braces are usually fragile, so many wearers must quit their beloved sports or activities because of potential injuries. With Invisalign Teen®, there’s no need to worry—you’ll be able to play basketball, swim in the pool, and join band practice and more without any dangers. Live your desired lifestyle each day with this amazing technology that lets you keep doing what you love best.
Experience a Revolution in Orthodontics with Invisalign Teen®
To make your aligners, we’ll need an accurate replica of your mouth. We can acquire this by either taking a digital intraoral scan or using impressions sent to Invisalign®. This way, the custom designed and fabricated aligners will be comfortable and tailored specifically for you in order to meet all of your goals.
After your Invisalign Teen® aligners have been crafted, you’ll join us at our office for the initial placement appointment. As a reminder, metal brackets won’t be used as part of this treatment plan – instead, natural-colored buttons are affixed to each tooth and made nearly invisible with clear material. The amount of buttons needed will already be determined in advance by your prearranged treatment plan.
We’ll give you several aligners to take home and use. Keep them in a secure spot so that none of your aligners get misplaced. Wear the aligner for no less than 22 hours each day, only removing it when eating or cleaning; this is essential for effective results. Every two weeks, switch out an old set of aligners with a new one until they are all used up – then come back into our office.
The Invisalign® treatment process is quite simple – our team will meet with your teen every 4-6 weeks to monitor the progress of their bite and provide new aligners. With experienced orthodontists on staff, parents can depend on us for beautiful smile transformations that are healthy too.
After patients have worn the predefined number of aligners for the appropriate timeframe, they’ll move to a tailored retention protocol. This could be either an orthodontic retainer or a lingual wire that ensures their teeth stay in place and don’t shift back again.
