Is my 13 year old daughter suitable for Invisalign?

Q.
hello

i am looking to get invisalign for my 13 year old daughter. She is very self conscious about her two front teeth which stick out a little bit. I of course think she is beautiful as she is, but it has really been bothering her of late and i would very much prefer a brace that wasn’t going to be too noticeable and make matters worse. Do you think she will be ok with invsialign or is she too young for this particular brace?

Any help you can give would be great. Thank you for your time

Hi
She should be suitable for Invisalign depending on her dental development, severity and how much growth there is to occur. Invisalign have a product for this called Invisalign Teen which allows for further tooth eruption / growth. It also measures the compliance ie the amount the brace is worn, which can be a problem with younger teenagers. I would recommend a consultation with an Invisalign preferred provider.
Good luck
