Your Teen Will Love Invisalign® for Teens Treatment

No two teen cases are the same, so Align Technology is constantly advancing its Invisalign digital treatment solutions.

This allows our office to deliver a unique, customized teeth-straightening solution that’s more precise and keeps your teen moving forward.

With the Invisalign system’s proprietary innovations, such as SmartTrack® material, your teen’s smile can transform up to 50% faster. And as your teen becomes the person you’ve always seen, they’ll continue to enjoy the things that make them unique.

Almost Invisible

The Invisalign for Teens aligners are made of clear plastic and almost invisible. Your friends probably won’t even know you’re wearing them. Instead of hiding behind a mouth full of metal, Monroe Orthodontics Invisalign patients enjoy the confidence of showing off their smile every day.

You probably have friends with braces who aren’t allowed to chew gum or eat certain foods like popcorn and whole apples. With Invisalign for Teens, the aligners are completely removable. You can eat all of your favorite foods whenever you want.

This also means you can easily keep brushing and flossing as you normally would for proper oral hygiene. Try that with braces.

Whether you play sports or a musical instrument, traditional metal braces can present some new challenges. It’s hard to perform at your best knowing you could get hit in the mouth with a ball, or cut your lip trying to hit that note on the trumpet!

Invisalign for Teens helps you focus on doing what you do best-being a teen. At your initial consultation with Dr. Leiva, you’ll find out if Invisalign is a good fit for your smile and your lifestyle!

Invisalign for Teens

The Treatment

Your teen’s smile journey begins with a scan or impressions. We’ll develop a complete digital treatment plan to plot your teen’s best smile with care from start to finish.

The Aligners

Your teen will receive Invisalign clear aligners created with the Invisalign system’s proprietary SmartTrack material. Throughout treatment, you can monitor your son or daughter’s compliance through an indicator on the aligner.

Your teen will wear the aligners for 22 hours per day, but can easily remove them, so there are fewer interruptions to their lifestyle.

The Transformation

As your teen progresses through treatment, his or her smile and life will transform through a series of small, expertly designed shifts.

And with the Invisalign Teen Guarantee, you can switch to wires and brackets if your teen decides against Invisalign treatment within the first six months.

Benefits of Invisalign for Teens

Perfect for Busy Schedules

Invisalign for Teens treatment is ideal for busy parents in Monroe Township and surrounding areas. There are never any emergency appointments from broken wires or brackets. Invisalign often requires fewer appointments (than traditional metal braces) because you get your Invisalign aligners in advance, and each visit requires less "chair time."

The typical Invisalign for Teens patient sees Dr. Leiva once every 8 weeks for a total average treatment time of 9 to 15 months.

 

Doesn't Cost More than Traditional Braces

At Monroe Orthodontics, we understand that every patient's needs are different. Many factors determine the cost of Invisalign treatment. In most cases, the cost of Invisalign is comparable to traditional braces and covered by most dental insurance plans.

Financing options are also available to make Invisalign more affordable for your family. The Monroe Orthodontics team is here to answer any questions regarding financing, payment plans, and insurance claims.

Great for Active Teens

Invisalign for Teens effectively straightens teeth the same way metal braces do. Invisalign for Teens is an ideal choice for teens in Monroe Township who play sports, play certain types of instruments, love crunchy foods, or are worried about how metal braces will look at homecoming or in the yearbook.

As a teenager, you should be able to participate in the activities you’re interested in while still having the confidence to attend social events and make lasting memories. You should also be able to get efficient orthodontic treatment for crowded teeth, uneven spacing, and bite issues.

With the clear, comfortable technology of Invisalign and Dr. Leiva’s expert care, teens can keep being themselves and love their smiles.

 

Invisalign Responsibility

It’s important to wear your aligners for at least 22 hours each day so they can do their job and straighten your teeth. But, with Invisalign, you can remove your aligners for special occasions.

Like with traditional braces, Dr. Leiva will recommend Invisalign patients to wear a retainer after treatment to maintain your new alignment—and your confident new smile.
