Clear Aligners for Teens
Invisalign Teen® is a specialized version of the Invisalign clear aligner system designed specifically for teenagers who need orthodontic treatment. Invisalign is a popular orthodontic treatment option that uses a series of clear, removable aligners to gradually straighten teeth and correct other dental issues without the need for traditional braces.
We all know how hectic a teenager’s life can get. That’s why Invisalign Teen uses a Blue Dot Indicator that helps teenagers keep track. When they wear their aligners correctly for 20 to 22 hours each day, the blue dot fades to clear to let you know they’re ready for the next treatment. Think of it as a countdown to the day they flash you their dream smile!
Why Choose Invisalign Teen?
With Invisalign® clear aligners, your teen or pre-teen can improve their confidence in a discreet way that’s not as noticeable as traditional braces. Self-esteem is formed at a young age and can impact their confidence for years to come. The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that children see an orthodontist at the age of 7. Early orthodontic intervention can yield more effective, long-term results.
Unlike those who choose traditional braces, patients who wear Invisalign clear aligners can still enjoy pizza, popcorn, and other foods they love. Invisalign has no brackets, bands, or metal wires to poke or pinch inside your mouth. Invisalign is a popular orthodontic treatment that uses a series of clear, custom-made aligners that improve your teen’s smile over time.
Patients choose Invisalign Teen because it’s:
- Discreet– Invisalign is virtually undetectable, unlike braces
- Removeable– you can eat the foods you want
- Effective– Invisalign requires less visits to the orthodontist
- Affordable– Spark Orthodontics offers flexible interest-free financing that fits your family’s budget
- Comfortable– no need for brackets or rubber bands
Whether your teen or pre-teen plays a musical instrument or participates in sports, Invisalign Teen is less likely to interfere with these activities compared to traditional braces. Invisalign clear aligners are made from medical-grade, BPA-free plastic and have been widely used in orthodontic treatment for years. Give your child a gift that will last a lifetime!

Taking Care of Your Clear Aligners
Taking care of your Invisalign clear aligners is important to keep them clean, hygienic, and effective in straightening your teeth. Here are some tips to help you take care of your Invisalign clear aligners:
- Clean your aligners daily: Use a soft-bristled toothbrush and mild soap to clean your aligners daily. Gently brush them inside and out, rinse them with warm water, and dry them with a soft, clean cloth.
- Avoid drinking or eating with your aligners in: Eating and drinking while wearing your aligners can cause them to stain or become damaged. Remove your aligners before eating or drinking anything other than water.
- Store your aligners properly: When you’re not wearing your aligners, store them in their case to keep them clean and prevent them from getting lost or damaged.
- Don’t use hot water to clean your aligners: Hot water can warp or damage your aligners, so always use lukewarm water to clean them.
- Follow your orthodontist’s instructions: Your orthodontist will provide you with specific instructions on how to care for your aligners. Follow their instructions carefully to ensure the best possible results from your treatment.
By following these simple tips, you can keep your Invisalign clear aligners clean, hygienic, and effective in straightening your teeth.
