Dr. Behl is pleased to offer the first ever Invisalign treatment option for kids, Invisalign First clear aligners. These aligners, designed specifically for younger patients with a mixture of baby and permanent teeth, are perfect for Phase I patients. Phase 1 treatment is early interceptive orthodontic treatment for young patients, traditionally done through the use of expanders or metal braces, before all permanent teeth have erupted, which is typically between the ages of 6 and 10.
Invisalign First clear aligners for children are designed specifically to address a broad range of younger patients’ malocclusions, including shorter clinical crowns, management of erupting teeth and predictable dental arch expansion.
As a new offering within the Invisalign system, Invisalign First treatment includes the same proven technology, comfort and convenience for great results. The aligners are removable so your child can brush and floss normally and eat the foods they love without any restrictions.
Invisalign First clear aligners in Virginia Beach expand on key Invisalign innovations and have been specifically designed for growing patients with new and unique features including:
- The ability to use clear aligners to treat a broad range of malocclusions for Phase 1 early interceptive orthodontic treatment
- SmartForce® features such as optimized attachments that have been designed for younger patients with shorter tooth crowns allowing for improved predictability of tooth movements
- The application of SmartStage® technology, which maximizes treatment efficiency by producing the contacts and forces that support the tooth movement needed for arch form development specifically for Phase 1 staging patterns
- SmartTrack® aligner material, designed to fit comfortably while applying gentle, constant force to the teeth
- Improved and expanded Eruption Compensation features that makes it possible to treat erupting or changing dentition
