A clear alternative
Your Teen Will Love Invisalign®
In the past, straightening teeth using Invisalign was really only an option for adults. With Invisalign for Teens, that is simply no longer the case. Invisalign for Teens is the virtually invisible way to straighten your teeth without braces, using a series of clear, removable aligners.
As a leading provider of this exciting innovation in invisible teen braces in Scottsdale and Phoenix, we are happy to be able to offer teens an option to traditional metal braces.
Why Was Traditional Invisalign Only Available For Adults?
- Originally, Invisalign required that all of the permanent teeth have fully erupted in the mouth. Invisalign for Teens now accommodates for the continuing and natural eruption of the permanent teeth while still providing the kind of effective tooth realignment offered by traditional teen braces.
- Orthodontists were skeptical that teens would wear their Invisalign trays as directed (20-22 hours/day). It urns this concern was unfounded. It turns out that most teens do a really good job of wearing their aligners as directed and those that don’t, end up with metal braces very quickly.
Recognizing the unique treatment needs of young adults, Invisalign Teen has made it possible for many Arizona teens to avoid metal braces and still get the beautiful smile they want.
