ProviderInvisalign First in Calgary
Invisalign First is an orthodontic treatment option designed especially for the growing smiles of children ages 6 to 10.
Invisalign First is designed to treat developing smiles by aligning teeth and supporting healthy arch development during childhood.
It can address common orthodontic concerns such as crowding, spacing, and certain bite irregularities while creating space for erupting permanent teeth. Depending on your child's needs, early treatment may help simplify future orthodontic care.
The Importance of Orthodontics for Kids
Children with developing orthodontic issues often benefit from early orthodontic intervention to prevent or reduce the need for more extensive treatment later in life. Invisalign First may be part of your child's treatment at Cory Liss Orthodontics.
The Invisalign Process at Cory Liss Orthodontics
Invisalign straightens teeth by applying gentle, consistent pressure to the teeth over time.
Treatment consists of a series of custom-made clear aligners. Each aligner plays its specific role and is then switched out for the next one until the desired results are achieved.
How is Invisalign First Different?
Compared to standard Invisalign aligners, Invisalign First has a smaller construction to fit baby teeth.
It also has an Eruption Compensation feature that allows the aligners to accommodate baby teeth falling out and adult teeth growing in seamlessly.
Here are a few features of Invisalign First that may make it a great choice for kids:
- No friction from metal brackets or poking wires.
- Removable aligners that make it easier to maintain thorough oral hygiene.
- Removable aligners also mean no food restrictions.
- Clear aligners are discreet when worn for more self-conscious kids.
