Determining if your child is suitable for Invisalign involves assessing their age, dental development, and ability to follow treatment guidelines. Invisalign First™ is designed for children aged 6–10 with mixed dentition, while Invisalign Teen™ is tailored for adolescents with most permanent teeth in place.

Dental X-Rays and Your Health

Dental X-rays provide crucial insights that visual exams alone cannot. They help identify cavities between teeth, assess the health of tooth roots, and evaluate the bone structure surrounding teeth. Despite concerns about radiation, modern X-ray technology ensures minimal exposure, making them a safe and effective diagnostic tool.
