If you’re a teenager, the last thing you want is a brace that takes away your freedom. With Invisalign Teen, you don’t have to worry about orthodontic treatment taking over your life. You can continue as normal, and at the end of treatment, you’ll have a beautiful new smile.

About Invisalign Teen

Invisalign Teen is part of the hugely successful Invisalign family. Invisalign is a clear brace system, which offers you the chance to have treatment without anybody being able to see your braces. Traditional treatment involves wearing a series of bespoke aligners, which slide onto the teeth. Each aligner is worn for 2 weeks. The aligners are removable, and you take them out to eat and brush your teeth.

Essentially, Invisalign Teen is very similar to traditional Invisalign treatment. However, there are additional features, which make life easier for teenage patients. Like normal Invisalign treatment, each patient is provided with a set of customised removable aligners. However, Invisalign Teen braces are marked with a blue spot, which reminds you when to swap your aligner for the next in the series. When the blue dot turns clear, this means you need to move on to the next aligner along. Invisalign Teen patients are also given spare aligners, so it’s not the end of the world if you misplace one of your braces.

What are the benefits of Invisalign Teen?

Invisalign Teen is a fantastic treatment for young people. Teenagers often feel self-conscious even before they have braces, so invisible braces are a really popular option. They enable you to undergo treatment without any worry about what other people will say or think. The braces are also removable, which gives you more freedom, and means you don’t have to change your diet or the way you brush your teeth. Sometimes, brushing with braces can be tricky, and many people with braces may have a higher risk of decay. With Invisalign, you simply remove the brace, and brush normally. You can also eat without any anxiety about getting food trapped in your brace, and you can feel more confident when you smile.
