Invisible Braces for Your Growing Teen

Your 13-year-old daughter coaxed you into taking her to her favorite theme park in Orlando, Florida for her birthday over the weekend. She was giddy getting on the rides while you were happily taking a picture of her every chance you got. Unfortunately, when you went over the photos, you noticed that your teen was hardly smiling in any of them.

Teens can get especially conscious about smiling if they are not satisfied with the appearance of their teeth. A common problem among teens is misaligned or crooked teeth for which braces may be required. The problem is that wearing these metal braces or aligners (which often look like they can be seen a mile away) can make your teen even more self-conscious about smiling than she already is—not to mention make her feel uncomfortable or uneasy.

Luckily, a convenient, less noticeable option from an Orlando dentist is available to properly align your daughter's teeth and make them appear straighter and healthier, and it's called Invisalign. Unlike the usual metal braces, Invisalign braces are light and smooth, making the wearers barely feel them. Another plus of Invisalign is that they can do the job of correcting teeth alignment in a much shorter time than standard metal braces, something that your teen daughter will definitely welcome.
