What is Invisalign for Kids?

Invisalign for kids is a revolutionary orthodontic treatment specifically designed for children and teenagers. Similar to the adult version of Invisalign, it utilizes a series of clear, custom-made aligners to gradually shift your child’s teeth into alignment, without the need for metal brackets and wires.

The Invisalign Experience for Kids

Choosing Invisalign for your child offers numerous benefits, including:

Discreet Treatment

Invisalign aligners are made of transparent, BPA-free plastic, making them virtually invisible when worn. Say goodbye to the self-consciousness often associated with traditional braces – with Invisalign, your child can straighten their smile with confidence, without anyone even knowing!

Comfortable Fit

Invisalign aligners are custom-made to fit snugly over your child's teeth, providing a comfortable and irritation-free orthodontic experience. Unlike traditional braces, there are no metal components to poke or scrape against their cheeks and gums.

Removable Convenience

Invisalign aligners are removable, allowing your child to easily take them out to eat, drink, brush, and floss. There are no dietary restrictions with Invisalign, meaning your child can continue to enjoy all their favorite foods throughout their treatment.

Fewer Orthodontic Visits

In many cases, Invisalign treatment requires fewer orthodontic visits compared to traditional braces. Your child will still need to visit our office periodically for check-ups to monitor their progress, but the frequency of these visits may be less than with traditional braces.

Improved Oral Hygiene

With Invisalign, your child can maintain optimal oral hygiene throughout their treatment by simply removing their aligners to brush and floss. This can help prevent cavities, gum disease, and other dental issues commonly associated with traditional braces.

Starting Your Child’s Invisalign Journey

The Invisalign journey for kids begins with a consultation with Dr. Peter Worth, where he will evaluate your child’s smile and discuss their treatment goals. Using advanced digital imaging technology, Dr. Worth will create a custom treatment plan tailored to your child’s unique needs and desired outcome.

Once your child’s treatment plan is finalized, they’ll receive a series of custom-made Invisalign aligners designed to gradually move their teeth into alignment. Your child will wear each set of aligners for about 20 to 22 hours per day, switching to the next set in the series every 1 to 2 weeks as directed by Dr. Worth.

Throughout their treatment journey, your child will visit our office periodically for check-ups to monitor their progress and ensure that their treatment is on track. Before you know it, your child will be flashing a confident, straight smile that they can be proud of!
