Is Invisalign® suitable for all ages?

A straight, beautiful smile doesn’t have an age limit, so whether you’re a teenager or a parent, Invisalign® may be a viable option for your smile.

We understand how beneficial orthodontic treatment can be for your self-confidence and oral health, but is it suitable for all ages?

Is Invisalign Right for You?

Clear aligner therapy can be an effective treatment option for many patients in Black Rock and the surrounding areas.

If you are a teen or adult with any of the following mild to moderate orthodontic concerns, clear aligner therapy could work for you:

  • Overbite
  • Underbite
  • Crossbite
  • Open bite
  • Gapped teeth
  • Crowded teeth
  • Misaligned teeth

Key Factors to Consider

When you visit our dental clinic in Black Rock for an orthodontic evaluation, we’ll consider several factors when determining your Invisalign eligibility.

Here are the biggest obstacles to wearing clear aligners:

  • Your alignment or bite issues are too severe.
  • You won’t commit to wearing aligners as prescribed.
  • Your oral hygiene habits aren’t as good as they should be.
  • You may have gum disease or issues with bone density.
