Straightening Your Child’s Smile: A Parent’s Guide to Invisalign and Invisalign First

Invisalign is the perfect solution for a comfortable and discreet way to help your child achieve a straighter smile!

What is Invisalign?

Invisalign is a clear aligner system designed to correct smiles. Unlike traditional braces, Invisalign uses a series of clear, removable aligners to gently guide teeth into their proper positions. Invisalign First is a specific type of Invisalign treatment designed for younger children whose baby teeth are still mixed in with their permanent teeth.

The Invisalign Process:

  • Consultation: Our orthodontist will assess your child’s teeth and jaw development to determine if Invisalign or Invisalign First is the most suitable option.
  • Digital Scan: A 3D digital image of your child’s mouth is captured. This allows for precise measurements and a customized treatment plan.
  • Aligner Creation: Based on the digital scan, custom-made clear aligners are created.
  • Treatment: Your child will wear each aligner set according to their treatment program, gradually shifting teeth into their ideal positions. Regular check-ups ensure progress and provide new aligner sets.
  • Beautiful Smile: After completing treatment, your child will have a straighter, healthier smile!

Safety of Invisalign and Invisalign First:

Invisalign and Invisalign First are safe and effective treatment options for children. The clear aligners are made from BPA-free, medical-grade plastic and eliminate the risk of cuts or abrasions from brackets and wires.

Benefits of Invisalign and Invisalign First for Children:

  • Comfort: No metal brackets or wires mean less irritation and discomfort for your child.
  • Removable: Invisalign and Invisalign First aligners can be removed for eating, brushing, and flossing, promoting good oral hygiene.
  • Fewer Appointments: Compared to traditional braces, Invisalign often requires fewer adjustments, minimizing office visits.
  • Improved Self-Esteem: Clear aligners are virtually invisible, reducing self-consciousness about braces during treatment.

 Invisalign for Special Needs:

Invisalign can be a particularly good option for children with certain special needs. The removable nature of the aligners allows for easier cleaning and maintenance compared to traditional braces. Additionally, the lack of metal eliminates potential sensory sensitivities associated with brackets and wires.
