What is Invisalign?

Invisalign is a revolutionary orthodontic treatment that offers a modern twist on straightening teeth. Instead of traditional metal braces, Invisalign uses a series of clear, removable aligners that are custom-made for your child’s teeth. These aligners are virtually invisible, so your teen can smile confidently while undergoing treatment. 

The best part? Invisalign aligners are smooth and comfortable, and they can be removed for eating, brushing, and special occasions. It’s the perfect solution for parents seeking an effective and discreet way to ensure their child achieves a healthy, beautiful smile.

Why We Recommend Invisalign for Growing Kids

Early orthodontic care can make a big difference. Invisalign treatment for growing kids helps guide jaw development, creates space for incoming teeth, and reduces the need for complex treatments later on.

With removable aligners, kids can maintain good oral hygiene and enjoy their favorite foods—making the process easier and more comfortable for the whole family.

Trust Invisalign Teen to help your teenager achieve a beautiful smile without the hassle and discomfort of traditional braces.

The Advantages of the Invisalign System

Easy Oral Care — Because Invisalign aligners are a removable orthodontic appliance, oral hygiene will be easy to maintain, as you will be able to clean your teeth more easily than if you were wearing affixed braces.

Discreet Look — The clear material of Invisalign aligners allow you to feel more confident while undergoing orthodontic treatment because the aligners are practically invisible on your teeth and will go unnoticed.

No Food Restrictions — Patients who wear braces must be more careful about eating certain foods to protect their wires and brackets from damage. When you are using the Invisalign system, you do not have to restrict what you eat, just be sure to remove your clear aligners when you do eat!

Comfort — Invisalign aligners are made of soft, flexible plastic material that will not irritate your mouth, so your orthodontic treatment process will be a comfortable one.

How Invisalign Works

The Invisalign system combines advanced 3-D computer graphics technology with the 100-year-old science of orthodontics. Invisalign aligners are designed to move your teeth in small steps to the desired final position prescribed by our orthodontist. Each aligner is precisely calibrated and manufactured to fit your mouth at each stage of the treatment plan.

Your first step is to visit our office to determine if Invisalign aligners are right for you.

Invisalign for Parents and Kids Together

Make orthodontic care a family experience. If your child is starting Invisalign, why not take the opportunity to enhance your own smile too? Coordinating both treatments means fewer visits, less time off work and school, and a streamlined process for the whole family.

At our office, Dr. Scott can start both treatments during the same visit—making it simple, convenient, and stress-free. Two confident smiles, one plan.
