Treatments that suit an active teen schedule

With a busy social life and active online presence, teens are becoming more aware of their appearance. That’s why we offer a range of discreet orthodontic solutions for teens - ensuring their smiles shine without drawing attention to their treatment.

Does my teen need orthodontic treatment?

Not all teens need orthodontic treatment, but for the ones who could benefit from it, braces or aligners can make all the difference in the health of their smile. Orthodontics can help prevent tooth decay and oral trauma, and even improve speech, chewing, and digestion.

Some signs that your teen could benefit from treatment include:

Early, late, or irregular loss of baby teeth
Crowding or spacing between teeth
Frequent biting of the cheeks or lips
Difficulty chewing or biting
Jaws that shift or click
Teeth that meet abnormally (or not at all)
Jaws or teeth that are out of proportion to the rest of the face
If you’re unsure, a free consultation at Smiles By White can give you clear, expert guidance on whether invisible braces for teens or other options are the right next step.

Our treatment options for teens

At Smiles By White, we create 100% customized treatment plans based on your teen’s smile goals. During their free consultation, we will assess their smile to see what treatment could benefit them most. The options include:

Metal braces: Traditional metal braces are the original orthodontic method, but the brackets today are smaller, more comfortable, and more efficient than ever. Metal braces are the most budget-friendly option, and can be used to treat even complex orthodontic issues.

Clear braces: Clear braces are made from a clear ceramic material that helps your teen’s treatment blend in beautifully with their smile. Ceramic braces are just as durable and efficient as metal braces, and provide a wonderful discreet option for traditional treatment.

Invisalign® treatment: Invisalign® treatment uses a series of custom, virtually invisible, clear aligners to guide your teen’s smile into alignment without the need for any metal brackets or wires. These aligners are removable, so they won’t affect meals or after-school activities.

One of the best things about Invisalign® treatment is that we can pair it with the Dental Monitoring app for remote treatment check-ins. This means your teen can complete treatment from the comfort of home or school without worrying about commutes to our clinic.
