Last weekend Dr. Charles Brodsky and two of his Invisalign Teen patients represented Brodsky Orthodontics at the 2009 US Open of Surfing in Huntington Beach, CA. They got to explain their experiences to other teens about wearing their aligners while the spectators waited in line for autographs from professional surfers Peter Mel, Connor Coffin and Jamie Sterling at the Invisalign Teen booth.
Invisalign Teen aligners fit into a teenager’s lifestyle easily. Now teens don’t have to be self-conscious when they go to proms, take school photos, or post pictures online. Projected treatment time ranges from 12 to 18 months (approximately half the amount of time of conventional braces).
Many parents had valid concerns about what would happen if their son or daughter lost their aligners or what if they don’t wear them as needed. To alleviate parents’ fears, the Invisalign Teen product offers six free replacement aligners and a special compliance indicator on every aligner. At Brodsky Orthodontics, we find that teens who are not willing to wear braces are especially compliant patients because invisible trays that straighten teeth are cool and easy to maintain.
Dr. Joel and Charles Brodsky are not only Elite Premier Providers of the Invisalign System, but they have a special designation making them Teen Providers. No other orthodontist in a 15 mile radius has this special designation which indicates that they have not only been trained on teenagers, but have shown a high level of success in treating teens with the Invisalign System.
