Invisalign® Teen in Westminster
Invisalign Teen in Westminster, CO
Invisalign Teen in Westminster, Colorado
For most teens, sports, school, and time with friends matter a lot more than braces. Invisalign® clear aligners let teens straighten their smiles without brackets or wires, so they can enjoy these years while most people never notice they are in orthodontic treatment. Dr. Larry Weddle provides Invisalign Teen treatment at Weddle Orthodontics in Westminster, CO.
How Invisalign Works for Teens
Invisalign uses a series of custom-made clear aligners that gradually move the teeth into place. Your teen switches to a new set of aligners on a schedule Dr. Weddle sets, and we check in with our office to track progress. Because the aligners are removable, you can take them out for meals, brushing, and flossing, then put them right back in.
Results depend on wearing the aligners consistently throughout the day and night, so they’re a great fit for teens ready to take ownership of their treatment.
Benefits of Clear Aligners for Teens
- Nearly invisible: clear aligners are hard to spot, which helps teens feel confident in class, in photos, and with friends.
- Fewer food restrictions: because teens can remove their aligners to eat, they don’t have to avoid hard or sticky foods that can damage braces.
- Easier brushing and flossing: removing the aligners makes it simple to keep teeth and gums healthy during treatment.
- No brackets or wires: smooth plastic aligners mean nothing to break or poke.
Is Invisalign Right for Your Teen?
Invisalign can treat many common concerns, but it is not the best choice for every bite. Some cases are better suited to traditional treatment, and some teens do better with an option they cannot take out. Dr. Weddle will recommend the approach that fits your teen’s needs, whether that is Invisalign or braces for kids and teens. You can also compare the types of braces we offer.
Have a younger child? Some concerns are easier to correct before the teen years. Learn more about early orthodontic treatment.
Invisalign for the Whole Family
Clear aligners are not just for teens. Parents can straighten their smiles too with Invisalign for adults.
