Clear Aligners for Kids
What are clear aligners for kids?>
Clear aligners for kids are much like those adults use but customized for each child and their smaller mouths. They are transparent and removable orthodontic trays that shift teeth into proper alignment.
Can every kid use clear aligners?
No, every child doesn’t benefit from using clear aligners. They must be mature and disciplined because they have to wear them 22 hours a day and change them out according to the schedule without being reminded. Some severe orthodontic issues are best corrected with traditional braces.
How often do children need to switch clear aligners during treatment?
Clear aligners are usually traded out every two weeks.
Do clear aligners for kids require fewer in-office visits compared to braces?
A benefit of kids using clear aligners is that there are fewer visits with the orthodontist. Visits are spaced out further because the orthodontist doesn’t need to make constant mechanical adjustments.
At what age are clear aligners appropriate for children?
Older teens tend to do better with clear aligners than younger children because they have the maturity to follow the orthodontist instructions.
What are the advantages of clear aligners over traditional braces for kids?
Advantages include a better appearance, fewer orthodontist visits, and being able to remove them. Clear aligners are more comfortable.
