Invisalign® for teens
A near-invisible, removable alternative to braces — letting your teen straighten their smile without metal wires or brackets, and with barely any change to everyday life.
Clear aligners made for teen life
Invisalign® uses a series of clear, custom-made aligners instead of wires and brackets — so most people won't even notice your teen is wearing them. At an age when confidence matters so much, that discretion makes a real difference.
Each set is worn for a week or two before moving to the next, gradually guiding the teeth into place. It's a modern, low-fuss way to straighten a growing smile.
Eat, play and carry on as normal
Because the aligners lift out, there are no food restrictions — your teen simply removes them to eat, then brushes and pops them back in. Cleaning teeth and aligners is easy, with no wires to work around.
They come out for contact sport, swimming, photos and that big performance too. For busy teen schedules, that flexibility is often the deciding factor.
How it works — and staying on track
Aligners work best when they're worn around 20 to 22 hours a day. Worn as prescribed, Invisalign® is just as effective as traditional braces for many teens — so consistent wear is the key to a great result.
Wearing aligners as prescribed takes some responsibility, but we make staying on track easier through remote Virtual Monitoring. If a fixed option would suit your teen better, braces and custom LightForce™ braces are always an alternative.

Around 20 to 22 hours a day for the best results, taking them out mainly to eat, drink anything other than water, and brush. The aligners are changed to the next set roughly every week or two.
Worn as prescribed, Invisalign® is just as effective as braces for many teens. For some complex cases, fixed braces may still be the better choice — your Specialist Orthodontist will advise.
Some teens notice a slight lisp for a day or two while they get used to the aligners. It almost always settles quickly as they adjust.
Consistent wear is key, so we help build the habit and use Virtual Monitoring to keep an eye on progress between appointments — catching any slips early.
