5 reasons teens love invisalign Invisalign Teen straightens teeth with clear, plastic aligners that are custom made to fit your teeth. Every two weeks, you use a new set of aligners, moving the teeth just a bit more toward their ultimate destination. About every eight to ten weeks, you will visit Wake Orthodontics to make certain you are on the right track. Teens love Invisalign, and there are plenty fo reasons why!

Most people would assume only adults need Invisalign, for professional reasons. However, teenagers are loving the invisible, removable alternative to straightening teeth.  Why do teens love Invisalign so much? The answers are simple!

Reasons Teens Love Invisalign: Invisible

Invisalign aligners are completely clear and custom made for your teeth. From selfies to prom and yearbook photos to senior pictures, you will be looking your best. Since the aligners are clear, most people won’t even know you are wearing them. Your smile will be corrected without any metal bands or brackets, and you can be more confident about how you look.

Removable

Invisalign trays are removable. You take them out when you eat and enjoy all of your favorite foods. You can brush and floss your teeth as you normally would, and then place the aligners back in until your next meal. Just don’t forget to put them back in, because Invisalign Teen should be worn precisely as your orthodontist prescribes so that it works the way it’s supposed to. 

Activity-Friendly

If you play sports, Invisalign Teen is a perfect alternative way to straighten your smile. You can remove the aligners before games and place them back in when you are done. Invisalign also gives you the freedom to play instruments. 

Manageable

As Invisalign aligners do not contain metal or wires, there will be fewer visits to Wake Orthodontics for appointments. You will find this feature to be a great time saver. The aligners also have blue indicators that fade as you wear them so you and your parents can make sure you are wearing them as instructed. If you lose an aligner, our team will let you know what you need to do to maintain your progress during treatment. 

Cost-Effective

Your parents will be happy about this one. Invisalign Teen costs about the same as traditional braces, and insurance companies generally offer an equivalent amount of coverage. With Invisalign Teen at Wake Orthodontics, you can set up a payment plan over the length of your orthodontic care.
