Invisalign for Teens
Our team at Skopek Orthodontics is committed to providing confidence-boosting orthodontic treatment options for your teen that neatly fit into their busy lifestyle. Dr. Skopek uses Invisalign Clear Aligners to discreetly straighten your teens’ smiles, giving them an almost invisible, convenient option for their treatment journey.
Invisalign Clear Aligners are a virtually invisible, removable straightening alternative to conventional braces. These aligners work by applying gentle but consistent pressure to your teeth, efficiently guiding them into the correct position. Invisalign trays are removable, so you don’t have to worry about avoiding your favorite foods, switching up your oral hygiene routine, or changing your appearance with metal brackets and wires. Dr. Skopek creates Invisalign trays that are custom-made for your teeth, providing you with the ultimate comfort during treatment. Treatment results are typically shorter with Invisalign as well. An orthodontic treatment option that is discreet, removable, comfortable, and fast? It’s almost too good to be true.
Why Choose Invisalign for Teens?
Invisalign is an extremely accommodating treatment option for teens because it offers them a removable, clear, comfortable, and convenient treatment option. Your teen can take their aligners out to eat, brush, and floss, for sporting events, and social occasions. Just remind them to wear their trays for at least 22 hours a day for optimal progress. Your teen doesn’t have to worry about their appearance changing too much with Invisalign, or the discomfort that comes from the poky wires and brackets of braces. This modern approach to orthodontic treatment allows your teen more flexibility in their schedule, with fewer office visits, and the opportunity for more virtual progress updates.
