IS INVISALIGN TEEN THE RIGHT CHOICE? 3 WAYS TO TELL...
February 6th, 2018
At dk Orthodontics, offering clear aligners is an important treatment option for patients, especially teenagers. When indicated by a trained orthodontist, Invisalign, the leading clear aligner brand, can provide teens with the beautiful straight teeth they’ve always wanted -- without traditional braces.
A consultation with an orthodontist is the only way to know for sure whether it’s the appropriate treatment option, but understanding the benefits of Invisalign can help you make a decision as to whether it could be the right fit for your teen:
- Completely Clear: Invisalign aligners are virtually invisible. No tight-lipped selfies here! If your teen is self-conscious about his or her appearance in photos, Invisalign could be the right choice.
- Removable: Invisalign aligners are removable, allowing your teen to eat and drink whatever they'd like while in treatment- and play certain sports more easily.
- Confidence Booster: A recent study found that teens wearing Invisalign are twice as likely to experience a boost in self-esteem while in treatment than teens treated with metal braces.
Plus there’s a benefit for parents: With Invisalign, appointments are less frequent and shorter… plus, there won’t be any brackets to become loose or broken, so there are potentially fewer emergency visits to the orthodontist. This all means fewer interruptions to your busy schedules!
