Treatment Process
Teen aligner treatment follows a similar process to adult aligners but includes special features for teens. We begin with a digital scan and create a treatment plan. The aligners include compliance indicators that fade when worn the recommended amount of time, helping teens stay on track. Regular check-ups every 6-8 weeks allow us to monitor progress and address any concerns. The removable nature of aligners makes them perfect for teens involved in sports or music.
Frequently Asked Questions
