We know that our
teens are super conscious of their image. Just note the number of selfies they
take, and how much time they spend liking, commenting and sharing their
friends’ photos on Snapchat, Facebook and Instagram. That’s why when teens come
to me for orthodontic treatment, I want to be sure we have options for them, to
ensure their confidence stays high while their smile improves.
One of the most
significant innovations in orthodontics is Invisalign Teen®. Geared towards
teens and young adults, Invisalign Teen works for patients who have all their
permanent teeth. The brilliance of the Invisalign system is that it allows me
to treat my patients using custom, almost invisible aligners. Here’s how it
works: a series of clear, removable aligners move teeth into the right
position. Patients wear each aligner for one to two weeks, which moves the
teeth enough so that the next set of aligners can fit over the teeth. In no
time, patients can see results in their teeth, and their overall appearance.
Also designed to
create an aesthetic appearance for teens, the In-Ovation® C (clear) brackets
system uses high translucency technology that makes braces less noticeable.
With this system, we often see decreased plaque development, fewer office
visits and shorter treatment time.
To determine if
Invisalign Teen or In-Ovation is the right choice for you, make an appointment
with Dr. Arleen Azar-Mehr by calling (818) 886-6666 or clicking here to request
