Invisalign® First

Why Use Invisalign® First?

Invisalign® First aligners are:

• Designed to treat a broad range of teeth straightening issues in growing children, from simple to complex, including crowding, spacing, and narrow dental arches.
• Removable for easy hygiene, making it easier for growing children to brush and floss.
• Designed for comfort – which means no discomfort from rubbing brackets or poking wires.

Who Could Be a Candidate for Invisalign® First Clear Aligners?

As a child grows, their smile grows with them. And even with baby teeth, it may be the perfect time for children ages 6 to 10 to start orthodontic treatment. This is known as Phase 1 treatment. At this stage, our team can see issues that may need early treatment to address a developing problem. Invisalign® First clear aligner treatment is designed for predictable results and a positive experience while addressing the unique needs of growing children.

What is the Treatment Process with Invisalign® First?

During the initial consultation, one of our orthodontists will determine if your child is an appropriate candidate for Invisalign® First. If approved, we’ll take digital scans of your child’s smile and a custom Invisalign® First aligner will be made for your child in an Invisalign® lab. Once the first aligner is ready, your child will be scheduled to return for an orthodontist to ensure a correct and comfortable fit. Invisalign® First aligners gently shift teeth over time and are eventually replaced with new retainers to complete the remaining phases of treatment. Interested in Invisalign® First for your child?
