Teenagers want a straight smile, but they often don't want the noticeable look of metal braces. Invisalign for Teens is designed specifically for the adolescent lifestyle, providing all the benefits of orthodontic correction with the freedom and flexibility they desire. At Smile Builder Dental in Riverside, CA, we are proud to offer this advanced clear aligner system.
How Invisalign for Teens Works
The treatment uses a series of custom-made, clear plastic aligners that gradually and gently move the teeth into their desired positions. Each aligner tray is worn for one to two weeks before being replaced by the next set in the series. Unlike adult Invisalign, the Teen system includes special features to help track progress:- Compliance Indicators: Small, blue dots on the aligners fade as they are worn, giving parents and our team an easy way to check compliance.
- Eruption Tabs: These tabs are designed to accommodate the growth of new, erupting permanent teeth, allowing treatment to continue seamlessly.
Key Benefits for Teenagers
Invisalign offers clear advantages that make it highly popular with teenagers and their parents:- Virtually Invisible: The aligners are clear, so most people won't even notice your teen is wearing them, allowing them to smile confidently throughout treatment.
- Removable: Aligners can be removed for eating, brushing, flossing, and special occasions (like playing an instrument or competitive sports).
- Easy Hygiene: Unlike braces, there are no wires or brackets to clean around, making it simple for teens to maintain excellent oral hygiene and reduce the risk of cavities.
- Fewer Emergencies: Without wires or brackets, there's no risk of broken wires or loose brackets, meaning fewer emergency visits to our office.
