Invisalign teen
Dr. Suzuki is excited to offer Align Technologies newest product – Invisalign Teen™ -- at both his Vancouver and Coquitlam orthodontic offices . Invisalign Teen was designed with young people in mind. It accommodates the growth of secondary molars, has a Blue Dot Wear Indicator (to encourage compliance), and offers up to six, free, individual replacement aligners. Plus there are all the lifestyle benefits. Teens can still play sports as well as wind instruments, eat whatever they want, smile in photos, and brush and floss like they always did. All of that while they're having their teeth straightened!
Invisalign Teen works in a similar way to braces in that pressures are applied to the teeth with plastic trays to get them to move. It helps correct a broad range of dental and orthodontic issues.
It works on many kinds of conditions including: crowded teeth, spaced teeth, crossbite, overbite and underbite. In the past, traditional braces were the only option available to treat those conditions. Now Invisalign Teen can help treat these conditions too.
Research indicates that 95% of all teens worry about the appearance of metal braces. One of the reasons they worry is because of pain, but also because of their treatment being noticeable in photos. Because it's nearly invisible, Invisalign Teen helps teenagers feel confident because they aren't self-conscious about their treatment. They keep smiling. Also, Invisalign Teen is less likely to cause tooth-and-gum irritation compared to braces.
Dr. Suzuki is a designated Invisalign Teen provider in Vancouver and Coquitlam. He will be able to help you decide whether or not Invisalign Teen is for best for prospective patients and help them get the smile they want!
Invisalign Teen system costs about the same as clear braces. Treatment costs vary from patient to patient. The true cost of your teen's treatment will be determined during your first visit with us. Like traditional braces, Invisalign Teen is usually covered by orthodontic coverage plans. You can talk to your insurance provider to determine the extent of coverage.
