This advanced orthodontic solution offers all the benefits of traditional Invisalign treatment, with added features designed for teenagers.

Additionally, the unique wear indicator helps teens easily track when it’s time to switch to the next set of aligners, making it simpler to stay on schedule, especially for families with hectic lives.

What to Expect
The process begins with a consultation to determine if Invisalign Teen is suitable. We’ll assess your teen’s bite and take digital scans and photos to plan their treatment. Once the number of trays needed is determined, we’ll provide a timeline and cost estimate. Your teen will receive several sets of aligners to use over time. Every two weeks, they’ll switch to the next set, gradually shifting their teeth into place. After completing the treatment, they’ll be fitted with clear retainers to maintain their new smile and prevent relapse.
Invisalign Teen is a favored choice among adolescents, especially those who may struggle with oral hygiene. Its discreet and comfortable design helps boost self-confidence without the visible appearance of metal braces.

Invisalign is preferred for its discreet look, but if your teen struggles with maintaining aligners, traditional braces might be more effective.
There isn’t an official minimum age for starting Invisalign, but we typically recommend beginning treatment at around seven years old. This age is generally the earliest that children can start using braces. However, ensuring that young children wear their aligners for the required 22 hours a day can sometimes be challenging.
