Invisalign^® for Teens

Invisalign^® aligners for teens were especially developed keeping in mind the various challenges teenagers face while using aligners for teeth straightening. The special features of these Invisalign^® aligners which help teens tackle the common issues of wearing aligners are as follows:

• Eruption TabsIn case of teens who still have some baby teeth left or have incompletely erupted permanent teeth, Invisalign^® aligners for teens are a perfect solution. These aligners consist of spaces which allow easy eruption of permanent teeth. This in turn helps enhance the comfort levels.
• Extra Set of Replacement AlignersLosing or damaging aligners is one of the most common complaints of teenagers who use aligners. This issue is easily addressed as Invisalign^® for teens comes with 6 sets of replacement aligners. This makes it possible for teens to continue their treatment without any interruptions caused due to lost or damaged aligners.
• Color IndicatorsMajority of teens don’t wear aligners as prescribed by orthodontists. Invisalign^® for teens makes it easy for them to follow the prescribed treatment period with small blue marker dots which fade away after 2 weeks or 336 hours of wear. This feature makes it simple for teens to complete the treatment without putting in much effort.
