Your Teen Will Love Invisalign®
At Sohn Orthodontics, we want our teen patients to be excited about starting their journey towards straighter teeth and Invisalign for Teens helps us do that.
Benefits of Invisalign for Teens
By using clear aligners from Dr. Sohn, teens in Bridgeville and all of our surrounding communities can have the smile they have always wanted with improved self-confidence without the appearance of metal appliances.
At your initial consultation, Dr. Sohn will be able to determine if Invisalign for Teens is the best option for your unique smile.
Almost Invisible
Invisalign for Teens helps you focus on doing what you do best-being a teen.
Invisalign for Teens aligners from Sohn Orthodontics are made of clear plastic and are nearly invisible. Your friends probably won’t even know you’re wearing them! Instead of hiding behind a mouth full of metal braces, you’ll enjoy the confidence of showing off your smile every day.
You probably have friends in Bridgeville with braces who aren’t allowed to chew gum or eat certain foods like popcorn and whole apples. With Invisalign for Teens, the aligners are completely removable, so you can eat all of your favorite foods whenever you want.
This also means you can easily keep brushing and flossing as you normally would for proper oral hygiene. Try that with braces!
Whether you play sports or a musical instrument, a mouth full of metal can hold you back from enjoying the things you want to. It’s hard to perform at your best knowing you could get hit in the mouth with a ball, or cut your lip trying to hit that note on the trumpet.
Straightening your teeth with Invisalign clear aligners can be a great option if you’re concerned about your appearance and don’t want to look different from your friends. At your initial consultation with Dr. Sohn, you’ll find out if Invisalign is a good fit for your smile and your lifestyle!
Great for Active Teens in Bridgeville
As a teenager, you should be able to participate in the activities you’re interested in while still having the confidence to attend social events and make lasting memories. You should also get efficient orthodontic treatment for crowded teeth, uneven spacing, and bite issues.
Invisalign for Teens effectively straightens teeth the same way as metal braces. That makes it an ideal choice for teens in Bridgeville who play sports, play certain types of instruments, love crunchy foods, or are worried about how metal braces will look at the next social event.
With the clear, comfortable technology of Invisalign and Dr. Sohn’s expert care, teens can keep being themselves and love their smiles even more!
Perfect for Busy Schedules
Invisalign for Teens treatment is ideal for busy families in Bridgeville and surrounding areas because there are never any emergency appointments from broken wires or brackets.
Invisalign often requires fewer appointments than traditional metal braces because you get your Invisalign aligners in advance and each visit requires less "chair time."
The typical Invisalign for Teens patient sees Dr. Sohn once every 8 weeks for a total average treatment time of 9 to 15 months.
Able to Correct Many Cases
Invisalign Teen can effectively treat the following concerns:
- crowded teeth
- spaced teeth
- deep bite
- open bite
When used appropriately and in the right cases, Invisalign can be very helpful in correcting an array of cases.
Easier to Keep Clean
Aligners with Sohn Orthodontics are often more hygienic than braces because it is much easier to clean your teeth when there are no brackets, wires, or bands in the way.
This also helps your teeth stay clean and white throughout treatment with reduced risk of demineralization, giving you the promise of better results in the end.
Doesn't Cost More than Traditional Braces
At Sohn Orthodontics, we understand that every patient's needs are different. Many factors determine the cost of Invisalign treatment. In most cases, the cost of Invisalign is comparable to traditional braces and covered by most dental insurance plans.
Financing options are also available to make Invisalign more affordable for your family. The Sohn Orthodontics team is here to answer any questions regarding financing, payment plans, and insurance claims.
Help Your Teen Keep Their Treatment on Track
To help your teen stay on track with treatment, there a couple of different features that Invisalign Teen offers:
- Monitoring tabs to help us detect if your teen is wearing the aligners properly
- A certain amount of replacement aligners are included in treatment, just in case your teen misplaces them
Invisalign Responsibilities
It’s important to wear your aligners for at least 22 hours each day as directed by Dr. Sohn for them to do their job and straighten your teeth. But, with Invisalign, you can remove your aligners for special occasions.
Like with traditional braces, Dr. Sohn will provide a retainer after Invisalign treatment to maintain your new alignment—and your confident new smile.
