Can a 14 year old have Invisalign treatment?

Q.
Hello

I am looking for treatment for my 14 year old who is very self conscious about their smile. Do you think you can treat him with invisalign, as he as quite a bit of crowding at the front of his mouth. I really want to give him back his confidence and am willing to try fixed braces if needs be but would prefer something more unnoticeable like invisalign.

Do you think it will work for him?This problem is really affecting him and I do not want him to grow up with no confidence due to his dental problem.Thank you for your time.

Hi
Yes Invisalign treats most crowding cases and should work for him (a consultation would be necessary to confirm this fully). I would recommend Invisalign Teen for him as this allows us to check he is wearing his aligners full time as required. If he does have to wear fixed braces we could look at the ones on the inside of the teeth, such as Incognito that are hidden and so ‘invisible’ too.
Good luck
