Invisalign for Teens

At Imagination Orthodontics, we offer Invisalign® for teens, allowing your teen to straighten their teeth discreetly. If your teen is looking to enhance their smile, this is a fantastic option. When comparing Invisalign® to metal braces, there are several factors to consider.

Discreet Treatment

Invisalign® aligners are clear and virtually invisible, allowing teens to straighten their teeth without the noticeable appearance of traditional metal braces.

Flexibility & Convenience

The aligners are removable, which means teens can take them out for special occasions, eating, brushing, and flossing which is super helpful.

Comfort

Without the metal brackets and wires that can sometimes cause irritation in traditional braces, Invisalign® offers a more comfortable orthodontic solution.

Metal Braces vs Invisalign vs Clear Braces

Metal braces have long been a trusted method for teeth straightening, with many parents having worn them during their adolescent years. These braces consist of metal brackets on each tooth, connected by a wire and held in place with rubber bands. While some kids enjoy choosing festive rubber band colors, it might not be every teen’s cup of tea. Thankfully, metal braces aren’t the only option available.

Invisalign® offers a distinct approach. It’s an exceptional orthodontic choice for teens aiming to subtly straighten their teeth. These clear aligners are barely noticeable, allowing your teen to confidently flash their smile without apprehension about their looks.

As the treatment progresses, your teen’s smile will visibly improve, and they don’t have to wait until the end to see the transformation. If you’re deliberating between Invisalign® and metal braces, have a thorough discussion with your teen about the available orthodontic treatments.

Clear Braces: In the Brick Township vicinity, there’s a growing interest in clear braces. These are a fantastic alternative to the conventional metal type. Similar to Invisalign®, clear braces remain almost invisible on the wearer.

A consultation with Dr. Young includes an examination of your teen’s teeth and requisite X-Rays. Armed with this data, we’ll recommend the most suitable teeth-straightening method. The term “clear braces” can also pertain to traditional braces crafted from a ceramic material matching tooth color.

Opting for clear braces means your teen’s teeth will be methodically adjusted to the desired position, all while we keep a close watch on their progress and jaw alignment. Misaligned jaws, such as overbites, need to be addressed too.

Ignoring it could deny your teen that flawless smile and heighten their risk of infections. At Braces at Brick, we tailor our treatment plans to fit individual needs, equipping you with the information required to determine if clear braces are the right choice for your teen. For local residents, call (732) 795-6096 to book your consultation and inquire about clear braces for teens.

How is Invisalign® different for adults vs teens

The procedure for teeth straightening remains largely consistent. When questioning the differences between Invisalign® for adults and teens, the truth is straightforward – there isn’t any significant difference. Invisalign® employs a series of clear plastic aligners to straighten teeth. These aligners, resembling clear retainers, are nearly undetectable, ensuring your teen’s orthodontic journey remains discreet.

Roughly every two weeks, your teen will transition to the next set of aligners, incrementally moving their teeth closer to the desired alignment. We assist both teens and adults throughout the local area in achieving enhanced smiles. The initial step involves understanding the patient’s ideal smile objectives.

This isn’t mere chit-chat but a crucial dialogue. For instance, if your teen plays a wind instrument, traditional metal braces could prove to be cumbersome. However, with Invisalign®, such concerns are non-existent. Dr. Young is adept at comprehending your teen’s specific requirements and recommending suitable treatments.

At Imagination Orthodontics, we cater to both teens and adults, leveraging Invisalign® to revolutionize smiles. One of the notable distinctions between treating adults and teens is the latter’s bustling schedule. While adults juggle work and family commitments, they seldom engage in extracurricular activities to the extent teens do.

Teens are typically engrossed in a whirlwind of activities and socializing. Bearing this in mind, the Invisalign® aligner is designed to be removable for convenience. This flexibility means neither teens nor adults need to let the aligner interfere with their lifestyle.

However, frequent removal might marginally extend the treatment duration. Despite this, Invisalign® ensures a seamless experience, allowing your teen to savor every moment without dental worries.
