Were you born with perfectly white, perfectly straight, perfectly perfect smile? If you’re like me the answer is no. I’ve pretty much always had problems with my teeth including cavities when I was young, and then I had to have oral surgery and get braces when I was 14.
We didn’t have Invisalign Teen when I was a kid, so I was stuck with the traditional metal braces. If you’ve never had to endure this, I’d describe them with one word: pain. It’s painful when they first get put on, and your teeth hurt every month, when it comes time to have them tightened, that is a pain. It can also be difficult to brush and floss around. Since I’ve had my braces off, I’ve continued to have problems with my teeth, and I’ve had to have a lot of procedures, including filling, root canals, and crowns, not to mention, I still have white marks where some of the brackets were on my braces.
I wouldn’t wish this upon anyone, which is why I would try to get Invisalign for my children, should they ever need braces. Here are a few facts about Invisalign:
As you can see in the commercials, including the ad image above, the results you get from Invisalign are great and dramatic. Invisalign works to treat the following problems: Overbite, Underbite, Open Bite, Crooked Teeth, and Overcrowding.
These problems aren’t just a cosmetic issue; they can also lead to other problems including tooth loss and broken teeth, jaw and joint pain, periodontal disease, and tooth decay.
Besides fixing these problems and helping you have a better smile, there are several benefits to choosing Invisalign. It is affordable, as many insurances will pay about 50%, and even without insurance, parents and doctors can help you find payment options as low as $99 a month. And the average treatment time is about a year to 2 years. Check out the Cost Calculator.
Invisalign is also virtually invisible, which means your child won’t have to be self conscious about wearing a mouth full of metal. And unlike traditional braces, you don’t have to worry about it breaking and having to go in for repairs. (This combined with no appointments to tighten the braces, means a lot less time spent in the orthodontist office!)
Invisalign Teen was developed with leading orthodontists to correct the most common teeth straightening issues – from severe cases to more minor, cosmetic adjustments. Invisalign Teen’s clear aligners are removable and can straighten teeth without a mouth full of metal and all the disruption and sacrifice that comes with it. With Invisalign, teens look better and feel more confident than they ever could in traditional braces.
