Invisalign aligners changed the game. Now we’re doing it again.
With no metal or wires in the way, your child can easily pop out the Invisalign Palatal Expander to brush and floss as usual.
Some orthodontic problems may be easier to correct if they are treated early. The American Association of Orthodontics recommends that a child’s first check up with an orthodontist be performed no later than age 7 to intercept any developing problems, eliminate the cause, guide the growth of facial and jaw bones, and provide adequate space for incoming permanent teeth.

Patients do not have to remove the devices for eating or drinking. However, it is recommended to rinse the mouth thoroughly after each meal. Chewing hard, sticky or sugary food (including chewing gum) may damage the device and/or the patient’s teeth and should be avoided. Drinking sugary or acidic drinks may damage the patient’s teeth and should be avoided.
Since treatment is customized for the patient by the doctor, every situation is different, and doctors may choose different approaches or offer different recommendations for getting a patient to his or her goal. Pricing is determined by the doctor so please discuss any treatment concerns you have with your provider to determine what approach is best suited for your smile needs. We also encourage you to check with your insurance carrier regarding orthodontic coverage options.
