Get Your Gorgeous Smile With Invisalign Teen
At Stewart and Labbe Orthodontics, we offer Invisalign Teen. This new option for our teen patients is a more modern and hygienic way to straighten teeth. Gone are the days where metal braces were the only choice. Teens now have a clear and removable orthodontic treatment designed specifically for them! Let's face it between school, sports and hanging out with their friends, straightening teeth is pretty low on the list. With Invisalign Teen we can make it as easy as possible.
Invisalign Teen creates new and beautiful smiles with the most innovative technology available. Much like regular Invisalign that Stewart and Labbe Orthodontics has been offering adult patients for several years, Invisalign Teen is a series of clear aligners that are custom-fit to comfortably align the teeth. Approximately every two weeks, you swap out your old aligners for new ones. The aligners will smoothly and continuously move your teeth until they are in the desired positions.
The unique thing about Invisalign Teen is the Blue Dot Wear Indicator that is built into each aligner. This blue dot will fade to clear over a two week period when worn correctly (20-22 hours a day). This gives the Doctor, the parent and the patient the ability to monitor how long the aligners are being worn for.
Here are some questions that we frequently hear regarding Invisalign Teen
Q Can I eat what I want?
A Yes, because Invisalign Teen is removable, your diet does not have to change while in treatment. It is important to know however that you cannot eat while you have your aligners in. Take them out to enjoy your popcorn and candy. Invisalign Teen lets you pretty much each whatever you want!
Q Is Invisalign Teen as effective as traditional braces?
A In the hands of an orthodontic specialist and when properly worn, Invisalign Teen can be as effective as regular braces for several different types of treatment.
Q How much time do Invisalign Teen patients spend at the orthodontist?
A We like to see all of our patients approximately every 8-10 weeks. There are times during treatment that patients may have to come in more frequently. Wearing Invisalign Teen does not increase the amount of visits to our office. If anything, you will have less.
