Well-designed with teens in mind

Invisalign Teen uses the same Invisalign technology as adult aligners, moving teeth gradually with each set of clear, comfortable plastic aligners. But because teens (and their mouths) are constantly on the move, we’ve added a few special features.

• Blue wear-indicators fade from blue to clear to help your teen gauge wear time
• Designed to compensate for the growth of new teeth and molars
• Six free individual replacement aligners are included if any get lost or misplaced

Best of all, Invisalign Teen works.  So teens can smile with confidence and parents can, too.

It fits your life

Sure, Invisalign Teen effectively straightens teeth.  It's designed to custom-fit your teeth and go with your lifestyle. You should also know Invisalign offers many other benefits that make it a great choice.

Do what you do.

Since Invisalign Teen aligners are comfortable and smooth, it's easy for you to keep doing the things you want, like football,  soccer,  field hockey,  and basketball.  Or play the oboe!  Invisalign Teen won't interrupt your life.

Smile. Often.

Invisalign Teen is practically invisible. Most likely, the only way people will know about your treatment is if you tell them. So hang out with your friends, get in photos, and, of course, smile... confidently.

Chow down. Brush. Floss.

Because you can take the aligners out, you can brush and floss normally. Plus you can eat whatever you want – pizza, popcorn… Chew gum!  That's right, no forbidden foods.

Comfort.

Because Invisalign Teen aligners are made of smooth plastic and move your teeth in small increments, you don't have the discomfort  that can be associated with tightening braces.  Plus there are no metal wires or brackets to irritate the lips or cheeks.  Relief!

You no longer have to straighten your teeth the traditional way, with metal braces. The Invisalign Teen™ system lets you do it the modern, hygienic way.  Your new smile is created with the most innovative technology – a series of clear aligners that are custom-fit to your teeth.

The first thing you should know is that an average treatment takes about a year.1 Plus your treatment can begin even if you don’t have all of your permanent teeth. Invisalign Teen was designed to meet your needs.

The Aligners

• snap on your teeth easily
• are comfortable and practically invisible
• allow for your growing permanent teeth
• gently and continuously move your teeth in small increments
• are worn for about two weeks. Then you swap them for a new pair
• have a Blue Dot Wear Indicator, designed to show an estimation of wear-time. The dot is designed to fade to clear over a two-week period if you wear (20 to 22 hours everyday) your aligners properly
• can be removed for eating, brushing, and flossing, or going to a special event
• are replaceable if lost. That's right, you get up to six free individual aligners

How it Works

Here's a quick look at the main steps of your treatment with Dr. Romani:

1. You'll meet with Dr. Kirsten Romani, a designated Invisalign Teen provider, for a consultation and find out:  is it for you?.
2. Dr. Romani will take pictures and impressions of your teeth.
3. Those pictures and impressions are digitized. Then, Dr. Romani can use the 3D renderings to precisely plan your tooth movements from the beginning to the end of your treatment, in order to fix your orthodontic issue(s).
4. Based on the precise treatment plan, aligners will be made to custom-fit your teeth. The number of aligners is different  for each person.
5. You'll wear your aligners about 20 to 22 hours everyday, except to eat, brush, and floss, or go to a special event.
6. Approximately every two weeks, you'll trade your old aligners for new ones. We give you a 10 week supply at each office visit. The aligners will gently and continuously move your teeth until they are in their final prescribed position, all without metal braces.
