At Glass Orthodontics, we hear a lot of patients saying that they “love their Invisalign Teen.” Did you know that our patients’ moms love it, too? Read on to learn why moms love Invisalign for their teenagers.
Fewer appointments
Patients can complete their Invisalign Teen treatment with one-third fewer appointments than traditional braces require with good compliance. Fewer trips to the orthodontist mean time and money saved. Mom can always use more of both.
Shorter appointments
Another benefit of Invisalign is that when Dr. Glass needs to see your teen to monitor their progress and fit new aligners, the appointment time is shorter than with traditional braces as there are no adjustments of wires or elastics. Shorter orthodontic appointments offer mom more time to spend on other activities.
Convenience
Invisalign is a system that straightens teeth by a series of custom-made plastic trays that gradually reposition and align the teeth. Unlike traditional braces, patients can remove Invisalign Teen trays for meals and brushing. This means that the orthodontic treatment will not impose any dietary restrictions on the patient, and mom won’t have to think twice about what to cook for dinner.
Home care is also much easier. Patients tend to comply better with brushing and flossing since they can easily remove the trays for access. Better home care means healthier teeth. Moms love that!
No emergencies
Invisalign treatment uses removable clear trays rather than wires and brackets attached to the teeth. This means that nothing on Invisalign will break off and require mom to bring her teenager in for an emergency appointment. No orthodontic emergencies mean no worries and happy moms.
With the benefits of convenience, fewer and shorter appointments, and no poking wire emergencies, many moms find Invisalign Teen an option they love. Please contact us for an initial complimentary orthodontic consultation for your teen by calling Glass Orthodontics at (757) 204-7770 or scheduling online.
