Is our teen pushing back against the idea of traditional orthodontics? It can be tough to persuade them to care for their smile due to the bulkiness and intrusion that can come with regular braces. When they are in their teenage years, they are the most self-conscious, so this is a common discussion with dental patients across the world. Thankfully, we have options to help them improve the quality of their smile, and we can help them to find their orthodontic path.
At Shirley Orthodontics & Pediatric Dentistry, we are here to help people have the smile that they deserve. For teens and young adults, that often means taking the time to talk about Invisalign® clear aligner therapy, which works in a slightly different way than braces. With this method, your teen will receive a progressive set of slim aligners that are nearly invisible, and they gently hug the teeth to help them move to a healthier location along the oral ridge. As your teen reaches nearer to their smile goals, they can swap them out for a new set and carry on with their care!
