If you're a teen with crooked teeth, you know just how self-conscious that can make you feel. This is a bit of a catch-22, however, since getting braces can leave you feeling self-conscious as well. It's for this reason that many teens and parents of teens ask us about Invisalign®. At Smiles by Lyles, we offer teenage patients Invisalign Teen®, which is a way to get a straight and great-looking smile without the brackets and wires of traditional braces.

What are the benefits of Invisalign Teen®?

One of the biggest benefits of Invisalign Teen® is that the aligners are virtually invisible. This means that teens don't have to feel self-conscious about their appearance. This is especially important for class photos, formals, and prom, where you want to look your best. Since the Invisalign® aligners are removable, they can be taken out as needed.

Invisalign® lets you eat the foods that you love, which is something that can't be said about traditional braces. You can still eat popcorn and candy when undergoing Invisalign® treatment, but just make sure that you aren't wearing the aligners while eating. Cleaning your teeth is simple and convenient with Invisalign® as well.

Because accidents can happen, parents will be glad to know that we will provide six free replacement aligners to Invisalign Teen® patients. This is just in case an aligner is misplaced or lost.
