Why Invisalign is Perfect for Teens in Glen Ridge, NJ

Is your teen worried about wearing metal braces? Thanks to Invisalign® your teen can walk around with confidence. Invisalign® lets teenagers enjoy their teenage years by allowing them to get their teeth straightened without having to worry about straightening their smiles. In fact, many of the teens in our practice say that they find Invisalign to give them the freedom they want to play an instrument or sports without worrying about braces getting in the way.

One of the best factors is that Invisalign aligners can be removed whenever need be, especially when it comes time to eat. With traditional braces, your teen will be restricted as to what they can and can’t eat but thanks to Invisalign® Teen, your teen can continue to eat and enjoy their favorite foods. However, the important thing to remember is that if your kids are wearing their aligners at school, they need to remember to take them off before eating and also be sure that they rinse their mouths before putting the aligners back on.

Another plus with Invisalign® is that it will benefit your teenager in many aspects of their high school life.  With Invisalign, your teen won’t have to worry about getting injured while playing contact sports because there won’t be metal brackets and wires in their mouth. They’ll also be able to play any instrument they want since the aligners can be removed allowing them to play instruments without the worry of the metal bracket.
