I’m so excited to share more about Invisalign! Not only am I receiving treatment to straighten my teeth as an Invisalign Spokesperson, but Ashley is too! Now, I am not just speaking as someone receiving treatment myself, I am also a member of the Invisalign Teen Mom Advisory Board. My daughter has received complimentary treatment, (as have I) from the makers of Invisalign clear aligners, but all opinions expressed are my own.
Ashley is just about half way through her Invisalign treatment, and I wanted to share an update on how it is going.
She is doing great and her teeth are looking so much better! She had two teeth that were really far behind her other teeth, and because she had her adult teeth come in much later than the normal age, she didn’t have treatment to straighten her teeth until she was older than the norm. I’ve heard this is more common than I thought, and I figured that treatment results would be slower too. I was totally wrong.
Her teeth were noticeably straighter in just a couple months. The two teeth that were pushed way back are now much closer to the front and we can’t wait to see what the next couple of months will bring her and her much brighter smile!
We have both really loved how easy her Invisalign treatment has been, even with her busy school, workout, and travel schedule.
With traditional braces like Maddie has, we spend so much more time at the orthodontist, something that would be next to impossible for Ashley to do. When we are traveling, Maddie has to skip appointments thus pushing back her treatment time. With Ashley, we just make sure that we have enough new aligners for the time we are away and that is it. She just changes her aligners wherever we are instead of having to go into an office to continue her treatment. Maddie ends up going to the orthodontist three times as often as Ashley and I do.
My only other concern was the cost as it compared to traditional braces and I was happy to learn that Invisalign has a Cost Calculator so that you can get an idea of the cost associated with treatment.
Invisalign is pretty amazing. I wish this had been around when I was in high school. Back then, braces were a sentence of popularity death. Kids are so mean. LOL
Invisalign sounds like a great alternative to traditional braces. It’s much better than all that cement and those metal studs.
That’s awesome. I have traditional braces for the second time in my life, and i was NOT a candidate for Invisalign, which kills me. I wish i had been able to have them.
Invisalign sounds like such a great product! I have a friend who uses it and shes told me so many great things!
I was recommended by my dentist to get Invisalign and I would love to. It looks like a great process!
I know a lot of people who have used Invisalign. It really seems to work.
My oldest had braces and I wish we could have gone the Invisalign route. They look like a great product.
I’ve heard so many great things about invisalign! My youngest will probably need to get his teeth straightened and I plan to do invisalign instead of braces for him if we can!
My 12 year old will needs something in the near future to straighten her teeth. We’ll definitely keep Invisalign in mind!
Invisalign is a fantastic way to straighten your teeth. I had the old fashion metal braces when I was a teenager. I would have loved to use these instead.
What a great option for teens with busy schedules. Which is most teens. lol. I know a few who could use this.
My girls are not teens yet, but if they need something like this I would definitely check in to it. I actually wish I would have used this back when I was younger. I think Invisalign sounds great.
I wore braces as a young teen in high school. I hated those ugly metal things, I wish Invisalign had been around back then.
Invisalign sounds like a great alternative to traditional braces, sadly my son was not a candidate for it!
I love that Invisalign has a cost calculator. I am off to take a look at what it would cost! Thanks for sharing.
Invisalign does an amazing job! We have friends who swear by these for their kids. I can see why! The results are really great.
I love invisalign I’d love to invest for myself! Luckily so far my kiddos have some pretty great, and really straight teeth but I have a feeling one or two may need something like this once their adult teeth start coming in more!
Oh this is so good to know! My son most definitely will need braces and I would totally do invisalign!
I haven’t heard of Invisalign. Good to know about this. It is hard if you have a non-straight teeth.
She looks great! This is a good option for teens who doesn’t want to have traditional braces.
My friend has been wanting to try this for a while but has been hesitant. Was the cost super bad? I wonder how long it takes compared to braces.
That’s really amazing! It’s a great option and it’s not like your traditional braces, it’s hassle-free and it doesn’t lessen your child’s confidence as well. I think this is worth it, especially since it’s going to make your teen a lot happier.
We have a friend that just finished her Invisialign treatment. She loved the fact that it was so inconspicuous, as she’s a realtor and in front of people all day, every day.
I don’t think the kids will need their teeth straightened but they are rather young still so we’ll see. I’m happy to read how well it works. I like that Invisalign is covered by some insurances and has monthly payment plans, that helps out families a lot.
My daughter is only 5 so she’s not at the point where she needs braces but I’m pretty sure she will in the future. If that’s the case, we’re definitely going to look into Invisalign!
My son wants to try this but he’s way past pre-teen stage. I think it sounds awesome to be able to have more freedom to travel without worry a bit.
Our son is scheduled for braces soon. I will check this out though. I’ve seen it on TV and it really sounds great.
I wish this had been an option for my son when he had braces. He was so self-conscience of his braces, but he does have a gorgeous smile now.
I’ve heard nothing but great things about Invisalign. I wish they were an option when I was younger.
I always wanted to try Invisilign myself. My brother did and was happy.
I currently have two kids in braces and watching their teeth transform is nothing short of amazing! Invisalign sounds like a wonderful alternative to traditional treatment.
