FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions for Teens
1. How long does the treatment take?
The length of treatment with clear aligners, such as Invisalign for teens, varies depending on the complexity of the case. On average, most teens complete their clear aligner therapy in 12 to 18 months. Your Pasadena dentist will provide a precise timeline during the initial consultation.
2. What if my teen loses an aligner?
It happens! We recommend you keep the previous set of clear aligners safe. If an aligner is lost, simply put the previous set back in and call our office immediately. We will determine if we need to order a replacement or if your teen can move on to the next scheduled tray.
3. Does my teen need to wear a retainer after the treatment?
Yes, absolutely. After the teeth have been successfully moved into their final position with Invisalign for teens, wearing a retainer is essential to prevent them from drifting back. We will provide a custom-made retainer and specific instructions to ensure the beautiful results last a lifetime.
4. Are there food restrictions?
None! This is one of the biggest advantages of using clear aligners over metal braces. Because the aligners are removed for all eating and drinking (except for water), your teen can enjoy all their favorite foods, including sticky or crunchy items, without risking damage to the appliance.
5. How often does my teen need an appointment?
Appointments for clear aligners are typically needed only every 6 to 8 weeks. This is often less frequent than traditional braces, making scheduling easier for busy families focused on teen dental care.
