Invisalign Teen offers all the amazing benefits of the original Invisalign system, with a few special additions designed with teenagers in mind. Teens love Invisalign because it’s clear & comfortable.
For added assurance, parents can opt for the Blue Dot monitoring feature. This feature lets parents quickly check if aligners have been worn for the required number of hours daily, ensuring their teen is on track with their treatment.
Meet with our team to discuss your teen’s smile, concerns, and treatment goals. Then we will examine their teeth and bite, review any necessary records, and explain whether Invisalign is an appropriate option. Bring questions about school, sports, instruments, or daily routines.
If Invisalign is recommended, we’ll explain how to wear, clean, and keep track of the aligners. During follow-up appointments, we’ll check progress and review the next steps. Your teen takes an active role in following their plan, with support from you and our team.
When your teen finishes their planned treatment, our team will review their results and explain their retainer instructions. We’ll discuss how to care for their retainers and what follow-up appointments are recommended.
