ProviderInvisalign First in Sturbridge
Invisalign First is an orthodontic treatment option specially created for the developing smiles of children aged 5 to 11.
It both straightens teeth and widens the arches, promoting healthy development of your child's mouth.
Early orthodontic treatment with Invisalign First helps us eliminate or lessen the need for more extensive procedures later in your child's growth.
Invisalign First is a great option for helping straighten your child's smile by addressing crowding, spacing issues, protrusions, and arch development concerns. It can also help with common challenges such as teeth grinding, thumb sucking, and, in certain cases, sleep apnea, making it a versatile and beneficial choice for a variety of needs.
The Importance of Early Orthodontics for Kids
Children with developing orthodontic issues often benefit from early intervention to help prevent or lessen the need for more extensive treatment later. Invisalign First is a commonly used orthodontic treatment option for kids at Sturbridge Orthodontics.
The Invisalign Process at Sturbridge Orthodontics
Invisalign aligns teeth through gentle, continuous pressure applied over an extended period of time.
Treatment involves a series of personalized, clear aligners, each carefully designed to serve a specific purpose in the orthodontic journey.
As the treatment progresses, each aligner is replaced by the next in the sequence, working gradually and precisely to guide your child's teeth smoothly toward the desired outcome and a straight, healthy smile.
How is Invisalign First Different?
Invisalign First features a smaller design tailored to fit baby teeth, unlike standard Invisalign aligners.
It also features an Eruption Compensation function that helps aligners adapt to baby teeth falling out and adult teeth growing in smoothly.
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 make it easier to maintain thorough oral hygiene.
- Removable aligners also mean no food restrictions.
- Clear aligners are discreet when worn by more self-conscious kids.
