Invisalign® Clear Aligners for Teens
At Robert G. Winnard, DMD Orthodontic Practice, we understand that being a teen is all about confidence — and your smile plays a big part in that. With Invisalign® for Teens, you can straighten your teeth comfortably, conveniently, and without the look of traditional metal braces.
Invisalign aligners are virtually invisible, smooth, and removable, so you can keep doing all the things you love — from sports and school events to hanging out with friends — without interruption.
Each aligner is custom-made using advanced SmartTrack® technology, moving teeth up to 50% faster and with fewer office visits. Built-in wear indicators help both parents and orthodontists track progress easily, ensuring your treatment stays right on schedule.
Confidence that moves with you — Invisalign® for Teens makes every smile moment easier, faster, and more fun.

What is the Invisalign system?
The Invisalign system is the virtually invisible way to straighten your teeth and achieve the smile you’ve always wanted. Invisalign treatment uses advanced 3D computer imaging technology to depict your complete treatment plan, from the initial position of your teeth to the final desired position.
Then a series of clear aligners are custom-made for your teeth — and your teeth only — to move them little by little. Each aligner is worn for about two weeks before being replaced by the next in the series until the final position of your teeth is achieved.
Your Invisalign treatment time will be determined by your doctor based on your specific needs.
What are the primary benefits of Invisalign treatment?
Invisalign aligners are clear, which makes Invisalign treatment a seamless fit with your lifestyle and day-to-day interactions with others. Invisalign aligners are also removable. Unlike braces, you have the flexibility to eat and drink what you want during treatment simply by removing the aligners when you eat. You can also remove the aligners to brush and floss as you normally would for fresh breath and good oral hygiene.
Unlike traditional metal braces, Invisalign treatment does not use metal brackets or wires that could cause irritation to your mouth. In addition, you’ll spend less time in the doctor’s chair and scheduling appointments, and more time out doing the things you love.
Lastly, Invisalign treatment technology allows you to view your virtual results and treatment plan before you start your treatment, so you can preview how your straight teeth will look once your treatment is complete.
How many patients are in Invisalign treatment?
More than 5,000,000 patients worldwide have been treated with Invisalign aligners. The number of Invisalign smiles grows daily. At your next appointment, we can answer any questions you might have and get you started on the smile you’ve always wanted.
