Invisalign Services for Children & Teens in Anaheim

Straighten Teeth Without Braces

Invisalign is an innovative alternative to traditional metal braces. This method has become extremely popular among kids, teens, and adults. At StarshipM Children’s Dentistry and Orthodontics, we offer Invisalign in Anaheim for patients who need orthodontic treatment but prefer to avoid traditional metal braces. Once your child has grown used to Invisalign, you’ll thank your lucky stars you make the right choice.

American Association of Orthodontists recommends all children to receive their first orthodontic evaluation by age seven. If a child shows signs of moderate or severe orthodontic problems and waiting is not recommended, early interceptive treatment is recommended at a young age. Early consultation helps identify urgent dental concerns that may worsen and be more difficult to correct later (and sometimes become uncorrectable), if left untreated.

Between the ages of eleven and seventeen, all baby teeth should have already fallen out. During adolescence, the jaw goes through rapid growth and it is advantageous to start treatment as the patient’s jaw growth
can be utilized and even modified for improved results.

Please call for more information and to learn if you are a candidate for Invisalign, orcontact us online. We offer services in English, Spanish, and Korean.

Benefits of Invisalign

For many patients, aesthetics is the biggest advantage of choosing Invisalign over traditional braces. Invisalign clear aligners are nearly invisible in appearance, which is often preferred by self-conscious teens who want
to avoid the look of metal braces. Although the nearly invisible appearanc of the aligners is a main reason for patients to choose Invisalign, there are many other benefits of this treatment.

Compared to traditional braces, Invisalign offers advantages that include:

  • Safe and effective for kids and teens
  • More comfortable
  • Easier to clean
  • Enjoy your favorite foods
  • Less noticeable
  • Fewer office visits required
  • Aligners can be removed for eating and brushing teeth

Invisalign can be used to correct a variety of orthodontic problems. We use Invisalign in Anaheim to correct everything from simple issues to more complex problems. This treatment is often an option for patients with crooked teeth, open bite, crowded teeth, overbite, underbite, and cross bite.

How the Treatment Works

The treatment begins with an evaluation and consultation. If it is determined that Invisalign is an appropriate treatment for achieving your goals, we can perform a scan of your teeth. This is used to create a custom treatment
plan for each patient. Based on the treatment plan, a custom set of aligners is made just for you.

During the treatment process, you will:

  • Wear the aligners for at least 20 hours per day
  • Switch to the next set of aligners, as directed
  • Notice your teeth shifting with each change in aligners
  • Visit our office for periodic checkups to monitor progress

We will monitor your progress throughout the treatment to make sure that everything is progressing according to plan. If needed, we can modify the treatment plan to ensure optimal results. At the end of the series of aligners, you will have your new and out-of-this-world smile. As with braces and other orthodontic treatment, a retainer may be needed to help your teeth stay in the new position.

Schedule an Evaluation

The best way to learn if Invisalign is an option is to schedule an appointment for an evaluation. We will assess your child’s teeth to determine what needs to be corrected and the most effective treatment options. We can explain the condition that needs treatment and the treatment options that are available, including Invisalign.

During your consultation, we will go over the treatment plan and the cost of your treatment. If needed, financing options are available through Care Credit with affordable monthly payments to help make your child’s orthodontic treatment fit your family’s budget.
