What it is

Invisalign Teen — the plain-English version.

Invisalign Teen is a version of Invisalign engineered for teenage patients. The trays have built-in compliance indicators (blue dots that fade with wear), and the treatment plan accounts for teeth that are still erupting through the gumline. We're a certified Invisalign Teen provider.

The visits

What the process actually looks like.

Step-by-step, so there are no surprises at the chair.

Consultation and scan
A 3D scan replaces putty impressions. We map out the planned movement on screen for the patient and parent together.
First trays and routine
We fit the first aligners and walk through wear, swap-out, and cleaning. Plan for some adjustment to the routine in the first week.
Check-ins
Short visits every 6 – 10 weeks. We review wear indicators, hand off the next batch of trays, and address anything that came up.
Retention
A retainer holds the result. Many teens transition into a clear nighttime retainer they wear for years afterward.

Common questions

Frequently asked.

What if a tray gets lost?
It happens. Invisalign Teen includes a small number of replacement trays — we order replacements as needed and adjust the timeline.
Can my teen take the trays out at lunch at school?
Yes — that's part of the design. The compliance indicators help us see whether the trays are actually being worn the rest of the day.
Is the timeline the same as adult Invisalign?
Generally similar, sometimes longer to account for teeth that are still erupting.
