Invisalign Teen Is Perfect For Your Teen’s Lifestyle

Our Anchorage orthodontist, Dr. Johnson, and his friendly team strive to provide children, teens and adults with a variety of treatment options. We proudly offer everything from traditional metal braces to clear ceramic braces and even Invisalign.

Invisalign Teen is one of our most popular treatment options for teenagers. Using a series of transparent, removable and custom-made aligners, Invisalign Teen straightens your teen's teeth without the hassle, discomfort and embarrassment of regular braces. Invisalign clear aligners help our younger patients achieve straight, beautiful smiles without anyone knowing! Continue reading to learn more about the benefits of Invisalign for your teen!

A Clear Advantage
Most teens aren’t too wild about having to wear metal braces due to the indiscretion of wires and brackets that may also poke and irritate the inside of their mouths. With Invisalign Teen, your teen will not have to deal with any pain and hassle of wires and brackets. The aligners are made of a smooth, clear plastic material, making this solution very comfortable. Because the aligners can be taken out when eating, your teen can enjoy any favorite food, including popcorn, pizza crust, bagels and corn on the cob. With regular braces, eating these foods is not possible because the hardness, stickiness, crunchiness and gooeyness of the foods can easily damage and break the wires and brackets.

Invisalign Teen Makes Maintaining Oral Hygiene Easier Than Ever
Maintaining good oral hygiene is never an issue with Invisalign Teen because the aligners can be easily taken out when it is time for brushing and flossing. Teens no longer have to deal with the wires and food stuck in brackets, and parents no longer have to worry about their teen not keeping up with an oral hygiene regimen anymore. It’s a win-win situation!

Customized And Personalized To Fit Your Teen’s Life
Another feature we love about Invisalign Teen is the fact that the aligners come with small, blue dot wear indicators. These discreet dots fade from blue to clear as the aligners are worn, ensuring that the aligners are being worn as often as directed. Moreover, the blue dot helps your busy teen remember how long each aligner has been worn!

Easy Replacements for Lost or Broken Aligners
Everyone knows that teenagers lead very active lifestyles and that sometimes they misplace things, including their retainers or aligners. But with Invisalign Teen, if your teen happens to lose or even break an aligner, it's not a problem at all! Each Invisalign Teen system comes with six extra aligners in the case of an accident.

Self-Esteem and Confidence
For many teens, looking and feeling their best is very important. And we agree! At an age where image is important, the thought of sharing the spotlight with brackets and wires can shake the confidence of anyone. With Invisalign Teen, there is no need to feel self-conscious, as the clear aligners are nearly invisible, providing teens with self-esteem from the beginning of their treatment to the day when their aligners are no longer needed!
