Invisalign Teen offers three main benefits. First, the aligners are expandable in order to allow for jaws that are still growing and developing wisdom teeth. These aligners also come with blue dots on them. These dots act as indicators that show the patient, patient’s parents, and our LA orthodontics expert whether or not they are being worn enough. If the aligners are not worn for at least twenty-two hours a day, there will not be enough pressure to the teeth, meaning treatment will likely last longer.
The third benefit of Invisalign Teen is that they offer up to six replacement aligners in case any go missing or become damaged. This is often a problem for younger patients, as they often have many places to go during the day, such as school, clubs, practices, and friend’s houses.
If you have a teen that could benefit from this treatment, schedule an appointment with us today.
