The average Invisalign Teen® treatment time is 12-18 months. Every case is different, especially with young, developing mouths. The complexity of your case and how closely you follow your treatment plan will also affect the length of your treatment. While it may feel like a chore to wear your aligners for 20-22 hours a day and keep them and your teeth extra clean, the more diligent you are with your Invisalign Teen® routine, the quicker your treatment will be. At the end of it, your confident new smile will make all your hard work worth it!

Invisalign® uses practically invisible, custom-moulded retainers that fit snugly over your teeth to gently but effectively straighten your teeth. Invisalign® can fix a range of orthodontic issues, including gaps, crowding, overbites and underbites. Each transparent aligner is designed to move your teeth towards your perfect smile without drawing any attention. Worn for 20-22 hours daily, Invisalign® aligners can be removed whenever you like. So you can enjoy all your favourite foods, drinks, sports and hobbies without disrupting your life.

Invisalign Teen® is different to Invisalign in that it provides a teeth straightening system for the needs of adolescent teeth and lifestyles. That means six replacement aligners are included in the treatment. This ensures any lost or damaged aligners will have minimal effect on your progress, giving you and your parents one less thing to worry about and keeping you on track to achieving your perfect smile with the least hassle. Invisalign Teen® also takes slightly longer than Invisalign®, with most treatments taking 12-18 months to complete.  

If the thought of braces makes you anxious or embarrassed, Invisalign Teen® is for you. Invisalign® aligners are removable, comfortable to wear and completely transparent. So you can enjoy all your favourite foods, drinks and hobbies with a smile on your face, safe in the knowledge that your teeth are gradually moving towards the smile you have always wanted. All without drawing any unwanted attention, thanks to clear, virtually invisible Invisalign Teen® retainers. For teeth straightening treatment that fits in with you, it has to be Invisalign Teen®.

The good news is that Invisalign is removable, so you can take out your Invisalign Teen® aligner at any point to enjoy your favourite foods and drinks. You just need to brush your teeth and rinse your retainers before you put them back in your mouth. The bad news is you can’t eat or drink with your aligners in because it could damage or stain them. So the only thing you can safely consume whilst wearing your aligners is water. You should also avoid sticky foods like chewing gum and toffee, which can cling to your teeth, impeding the alignment process and leading to cavities.  

Invisalign Teen® aligners are as close to invisible as you can get! This revolutionary teeth straightening system uses transparent, custom-moulded retainers that are so discreet that you and your closest friends might even forget they are there. As long as you maintain an effective hygiene routine for your teeth and your aligners, you can be sure that this comfortable, convenient teeth straightening treatment will go unnoticed as it gently moves your teeth towards the smile of your dreams.

Invisalign benefits a range of orthodontic issues. So no matter if you have noticeable gaps or overlapping crowded teeth, Invisalign Teen® aligners can help. Invisalign Teen® is designed especially for older teens with all their adult teeth. This advanced teeth straightening system delivers all the teeth straightening benefits of the adult version of Invisalign, only specially adapted for developing teeth and mouths. Invisalign Teen® can also help with underbites and overbites but may not be suitable for more complex issues or if you struggle to follow a routine.

Invisalign® for teens uses gentle pressure to move your teeth into position. Each Invisalign® experience is unique. Some people don’t feel any pain, while others experience mild discomfort that goes away after a few days.

A small amount of discomfort is a small price to pay for the perfect smile. We assure you that most of your Invisalign® journey will be comfortable and pain-free.
