Easy, Comfortable Treatment
Together with our highly focused care, Invisalign treatment at ABQ Orthodontics provides numerous benefits to make straightening your teeth as easy as smiling.
- True discretion – Invisalign provides the ultimate discretion for straightening teeth – even more than clear braces, which still require a visible metal wire. With Invisalign, no one needs to know you are undergoing treatment unless you choose to tell them.
- Improved comfort – Invisalign doesn’t use brackets, which means the inside of your mouth won’t get sore or raw from chafing brackets. Invisalign’s smooth plastic aligners provide a comfortable experience throughout your treatment.
- No diet restrictions – With metal or clear braces, you must avoid certain foods that can damage or break the brackets. With Invisalign, however, you simply remove your aligner while you eat. That means you can sink your teeth into whatever you like. From crunchy apples to sticky gum – the sky’s the limit!
- Easy oral hygiene – Braces require extra care to remove food particles that get caught in the brackets, and getting the floss under that wire can be tough. Once again, Invisalign’s aligners come to the rescue. Remove your aligner to brush and floss as usual, and then pop it back into your mouth when you’re done.
- No impact on your hobbies – With braces, many musicians find they need to undergo an adjustment period during which they essentially relearn how to play their brass or wind instrument. Athletes also need to take extra steps to protect their teeth and appliances by wearing pricey, custom-made mouthguards for braces. Invisalign’s removable aligners let you skip the inconvenience and keep enjoying your hobbies and activities as usual.
Invisalign Teen®
Your Teen Can Always Smile Confidently Throughout Treatment
Your child’s teenage years should be as carefree as possible so they can focus on having fun and making great memories. And while orthodontics is typically associated with teenage years, we also know that treatment doesn’t have to interfere with their social life and activities. Invisalign Teen in Albuquerque, NM, can help perfect smiles using clear aligners so your teenager’s memories can be captured with confidence. These clear aligners are removable and virtually invisible, which means your child’s teeth can be straightened without anyone noticing. They can still eat and drink what they want and can brush and floss normally to maintain healthy gums and teeth. Plus, there are no wires, metal or brackets to cause mouth abrasions!
Our highly experienced team will personalize your teenager’s treatment according to their unique activities and lifestyle – to ensure comfort and effectiveness.
Invisalign Teen can help with the following conditions
- Overly crowded teeth
- Widely spaced teeth
- Crossbite
- Overbite
- Underbite
By using its advanced technology, Invisalign Teen can treat a broad range of dental and orthodontic conditions, which originally were treated with traditional metal braces.
Don’t Worry, We’ve Got Their Schedule Covered
Invisalign Teen comes with a blue-dot indicator on each aligner. When your child wears their aligner for 20-22 hours a day (as recommended), the blue dot will fade to clear to let you know when it’s time for the next set of aligners.
At ABQ Orthodontics, we know teenagers have a busy schedule between school, chores, and extracurricular activities. Invisalign Teen gives your child one less thing to worry about during their high school days, and it makes it easy for them to stay in compliance with their treatment!
Bonus! Extra Aligners Are Included
If you’re worried that your child might lose an aligner, you can rest easier knowing that Invisalign Teen at ABQ Orthodontics has you covered! If your child accidentally throws out their aligner with their lunch tray or leaves it where the dog can eat it, you will have a few additional aligners available as a back up at no additional cost.
