Would Invisalign Teen be suitable for my son?

Q.
Hello

could you tell me about invisalign for teenagers? I know there is a different version of invisalign for those who are younger, but I just waned to know the actual differences. My 13 year old has crowded teeth at the front of his mouth and he is feeling very self conscious, so I really wanted to find something that would remain unnoticeable throughout treatment. Is invisalign teen still as unnoticeable as normal invisalign? and can you treat crowding with it? thank you

Hi
Invisalign teen is one of Invisalign’s products designed for teenagers. It looks almost identical to regular Invisalign aligners but has additional benefits
(i) Compliance indicators – small encapsulated colour markers that measure the aligners are being worn for sufficient time
(ii) space to allow adult teeth to fully erupt into the mouth if they haven’t already
(iii) some replacement aligners included in the price
The benefits of Invisalign are clear, removable aligners that will straighten teeth (including some types of crowding) without the hassle, discomfort, and embarrassment of traditional braces and give them the ease and flexibility to remove the aligners for sports, music lessons and for meals at school or on the go.
Good luck
