ProviderClear Aligners for Denver Teens
The teenage years are a key time for self-discovery and growing self-awareness. For many adolescents, their appearance and lifestyle can influence their choice of orthodontic treatment. That is where Invisalign Teen really shines.
Invisalign Teen’s lightweight, clear aligners offer the same discreet look as standard Invisalign, making a positive impact on teens who want to feel confident about their smiles during treatment.
Because the aligners are removable, teens can easily maintain their usual routines. Brushing and flossing stay simple – no extra effort or special tools needed. Plus, there are no food restrictions, so they can still enjoy all their favorite meals.
They can even take the aligners out for sports, playing musical instruments, or special moments like school picture day.
What really sets Invisalign Teen apart, though, are the built-in features designed just for teenagers.

Invisalign works by applying gentle, continuous pressure to gradually move teeth into their ideal positions.
The treatment uses a series of custom-made, clear aligners. Each aligner is worn for a set period, doing its part before being swapped out for the next one – continuing until your treatment goals are achieved.
How is Invisalign Teen Different?
Eruption Tabs
Your teen's adult teeth may still be coming in. Eruption tabs have been built into Invisalign Teen aligners to give adult teeth the space they need to develop fully.
Compliance Indicators
Invisalign Teen aligners come with small blue dots that gently fade away after two weeks. These handy indicators make it easy for your teen to track how long they should wear each aligner before moving on to the next one in the series.
