Fortunately, this is no longer the only option available. Since the release of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.treehousedentalpartners.com\/invisalign-clear-aligners.html\">Invisalign<\/a> clear aligners, teenagers have discovered a more discreet solution that allows them to achieve a straighter smile, all while avoiding the embarrassment and discomfort commonly associated with traditional braces. If you have a teenager interested in learning more about Invisalign, here are four reasons why so many young patients choose it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">No Food Restrictions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Apart from their subtle look, the fact that Invisalign has no food restrictions makes it a preferable option for teenagers. Although they should be mindful of eating hard, crunchy, and sticky foods to avoid possible tooth damage, Invisalign trays must be removed before eating. This means that your teen won\u2019t need to worry about food getting stuck in their braces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Discreet Appearance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Invisalign is made of clear plastic and is virtually translucent, so others never have to know your teenager is wearing Invisalign. This is what makes this system so unique, compared to traditional braces. Unlike metal brackets and wires that stick out and remain highly visible, Invisalign fits snugly against your teenager\u2019s teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The only time someone may notice is when your teen removes their trays before eating or drinking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Greater Athletic Freedom<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If your teenager plays sports, you can trust that Invisalign will still keep their smile on the right track. Aligners can be removed before the big game, which helps reduce the risk of potential injuries that may affect their smile or trays. The same is true if your child plays a musical instrument. Teens are encouraged to keep their aligners in a protective case when they are not wearing them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Fewer Appointments<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Not only do teenagers appreciate fewer follow-up appointments while wearing braces, but parents do too! Traditional braces require multiple appointments over 2-3 years. Every few weeks, your teenager must have their wire tightened to keep teeth moving. However, with Invisalign, there is nothing to tighten, only progress, which your child\u2019s orthodontist will quickly review every 4-6 weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Invisalign offers tremendous advantages for teenagers. During this time in their life, appearance matters a lot, so if you and your teen want to discuss these clear aligners with their orthodontist, don\u2019t hesitate to ask.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About the Practice<\/strong><br>Treehouse Orthodontics consists of multiple dental specialists who provide consistent, reliable orthodontic care to patients of all ages.
