ALIGNERS
FOR YOUNGER
CHILDREN
The same state-of-the-art Invisalign® Clear Aligners with specifically designed features to treat children age 6-10, who need Phase I Early Orthodontic Treatment. Younger patients now get the same comfortable, hygienic friendly, easy-to-care-for Invisalign option, just tailored to their growth and development and unique orthodontic needs. No food restrictions since kids can remove the aligners when they eat. Plus aligners are mostly worn during the evening, so they won’t loose them at school!
Dr. Greenberg is an accredited Invisalign Provider
It is important to select an Invisalign Orthodontist that is credentialed and recognized by Align Technologies Advantage Provider Program. An Invisalign doctor’s overall experience level is relative to the number of patients he/she has treated with Invisalign aligners. While this is a new program through Invisalign, Dr. Greenberg has years of experience and expertise working with the Invisalign clear aligner system, as well as addressing problems with Early Two-Phase Orthodontic treatments.
Invisalign designed for Phase I Treatment in Younger Children
Early orthodontic treatment can help prevent future problems from becoming more serious over time if left untreated.
Invisalign First clear aligners help children, typically 6-10 years old, with arch development and space/crowding concerns. If treated early, Dr. Greenberg can use the aligners to create space for erupting teeth as your child continues to grow and develop. An early orthodontic evaluation and treatment can help:
- Intercept any developing problems.
- Eliminate the cause.
- Guide the growth of facial and jaw bones.
- Provide adequate space for incoming permanent teeth.
Although most children will require a second course of orthodontic treatment after all their permanent teeth have come in, Phase I makes it easier to move those teeth into their best positions during Phase II.
