Fewer visits to the orthodontist than metal braces

Compared to traditional braces, Invisalign teen requires far fewer visits to the dentist. That’s because emergency visits almost never happen. Both teens and their parents will appreciate not having to spend their time in the waiting room.

Freedom to eat what you want

Some foods cause problems with regular braces and need to be avoided. Just remove your Invisalign aligners when you need to, so it’s not a problem to eat what you want, whenever you want.

It's safe, even when playing sports

Because the clear braces are made of flexible plastic and don’t have wires,  the inside of the mouth doesn't get cut or irritated. You can use mouthguards in sports like football or wrestling without worrying about wires getting in the way.
