Invisalign Orthodontics, Perfect for Teens

Crooked teeth can be awkward at any age, but even more so when you’re a teenager. Invisalign Teen is perfect for teens as it corrects orthodontic issues discreetly. Invisalign Teen uses clear, plastic aligners to straighten crooked teeth – there are no metal wires or brackets to contend with. Your teen can smile and laugh confidently throughout their treatment as the aligners are barely noticeable on their teeth. Mid-Valley Dental Care offers Invisalign Teen to our teenage patients in Northridge, California, and nearby communities. 

Advantages of Invisalign Clear Braces for Teens

In order to be effective, Invisalign aligners must be worn at least 22 hours daily, being removed mainly for eating and brushing, and flossing your teeth. Invisalign Teen has an inbuilt system to ensure teens keep up with this strict regimen. Each aligner has a color-coded dot that keeps track of its use, making it easier for your teenager to stay on top of their treatment. With Invisalign Teen, your teen also receives extra replacement aligners in case they misplace or damage some aligners during treatment. 

Invisalign Teen offers numerous advantages over traditional metal braces to simplify your teen’s orthodontic treatment, such as: 

  • The convenience of removable aligners for eating and dental hygiene
  • The use of customized aligners that fit comfortably and snugly over teeth
  • Greater precision in correcting multiple orthodontic issues, including gaps between teeth, uneven or overlapping teeth, tooth misalignments, slightly protruding teeth, overcrowded teeth, and bite issues
  • Shorter treatment times as Invisalign provides quicker results, generally in 12-18 months as opposed to several years 
  • The use of clear, plastic aligners won’t impact your teen’s appearance as they’re practically invisible on your teen’s teeth. This enables your teen to maintain a good self-image throughout the treatment.

At Mid-Valley Dental Care, Drs. Terence Lau, Casey Lau, and Kayla Lau will do their part to help your teenager get the smile of their dreams.
