Invisalign® for Teens in Pensacola and Pace, FL

Invisalign Teen aims to provide the same benefits of traditional braces, such as straightening teeth and correcting bite issues, while being more comfortable and less noticeable. Like standard Invisalign aligners, Invisalign Teen uses a series of clear, removable trays to gradually straighten teeth. However, it offers several features tailored to the unique needs of our teenage patients:

  • Eruption Tabs: These accommodate the growth of second molars, ensuring that the aligners fit properly even if all permanent teeth haven't erupted yet.
  • Compliance Indicators: Small blue dots that fade over time with wear, helping teens, parents, and Dr. Brooks track whether the aligners are being worn for the recommended 20-22 hours per day.
  • Replacement Aligners: Teenagers are more likely to lose or damage their aligners, so Invisalign Teen often includes a certain number of replacement aligners at no extra cost.
  • Customized Fit: Invisalign Teen aligners are designed to accommodate the changing mouths of teenagers, providing a more customized fit.

Smile Success with Invisalign Teen

  • Maintain Good Oral Hygiene: Brush and floss teeth regularly to keep them clean. Clean the aligners daily to prevent plaque buildup and maintain oral health.
  • Wear Aligners Consistently: Aligners should be worn for 20-22 hours each day. They should only be removed for eating, drinking (anything other than water), brushing, and flossing.
  • Follow the Treatment Plan: Stick to the schedule provided by Dr. Brooks, which includes wearing each set of aligners for the prescribed amount of time, typically one to two weeks.
  • Attend Regular Checkups: Regular visits to our Pace or Pensacola orthodontic office every four to 12 weeks are essential to monitor progress and make any necessary adjustments to the treatment plan.

Remember, Invisalign only works if you do! Wear your aligners diligently and you’ll soon have a smile you’re proud to show off!
