Invisalign First in Media & Wallingford
Invisalign First is an orthodontic treatment specifically created for the developing smiles of children aged six to 10.
It both straightens teeth and widens the arches, supporting the proper growth of your child's mouth.
Early intervention with Invisalign First can help prevent or lessen the need for more complex treatments later in your child's development.
Invisalign First can address teeth crowding, spacing irregularities, protrusions, and arch development issues. It may also help alleviate teeth grinding, thumb sucking, and sleep apnea in certain cases.
The Importance of Early Orthodontics for Kids
Children with developing orthodontic issues can often benefit from early orthodontic care, which helps prevent or reduce the need for more extensive treatments in the future. Invisalign First might be recommended as part of your child's treatment plan at CDF Family Orthodontics.
The Invisalign Process at CDF Family Orthodontics
Invisalign aligns teeth by applying firm but gentle, consistent pressure over time.
Treatment involves a series of custom-made clear aligners. Each aligner serves a specific purpose and is replaced by the next until the desired results are reached.
How is Invisalign First Different?
Invisalign First features a smaller design specially crafted to comfortably fit baby teeth, making it a gentle and suitable option for young children.
It also features an Eruption Compensation option that allows the aligners to accommodate the loss of baby teeth and the emergence of adult teeth 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.
- Simplified oral hygiene with removable aligners.
- Removable aligners also mean no food restrictions.
- Clear aligners are more discreet for kids who are self-conscious when wearing them.
