Now teens don’t have to worry about embarrassing metal braces in their yearbook photos or Facebook profiles! Invisalign® Teen is the clear way to straighten teeth without metal braces. Aligners are removable and clear, which means you can straighten your teeth without anyone knowing. You can still eat and drink what you want. You can brush and floss normally to maintain healthy gums and teeth, and there are no wires, metal or brackets to cause mouth abrasions. With blue-to-clear color-changing aligners to show how long each aligner has been worn, six free replacement aligners in case some are lost or broken, and other changes designed to accommodate growing mouths. Invisalign® Teen is the perfect teeth-straightening system for today’s teens’ busy lifestyles!
What is Invisalign® Teen?
It’s a clear way to straighten your teeth without braces using a series of clear, removable, custom-made aligners. It uses no metal wires or brackets, and it is custom-made for comfort!
How does Invisalign® Teen work?
You wear each set of aligners for about two weeks and remove them only to eat, drink, brush and floss. Your teeth will move gradually each week, and you will visit us every 8-10 weeks. The average number of aligners is between 18 and 30.
What conditions does Invisalign® Teen treat?
By using its advanced technology, Invisalign® Teen can treat a broad range of dental and orthodontic conditions, which, in the past, were usually treated with traditional braces. These conditions include:
- Overly crowded teeth
- Widely spaced teeth
- Crossbite
- Overbite
- Underbite
