What are Invisalign Clear Aligners?
Invisalign is a modern, kid-friendly alternative to metal braces. These clear, removable aligners are custom-made to fit your child’s teeth and gently guide them into better alignment over time — without the wires, brackets, or frequent adjustments of traditional braces.
For many children, Invisalign First (Invisalign’s pediatric system) is an ideal option during the early phase of orthodontic treatment. Designed specifically for growing mouths, it helps create space for permanent teeth, address bite issues, and guide jaw development — all with a more comfortable and flexible experience.
At Alliston Orthodontics & Oral Surgery, we’re proud to offer Invisalign for kids in Alliston, ON — helping young patients build healthy, confident smiles in a way that’s both effective and easy to manage.
How Does Invisalign Work?
Invisalign uses a series of clear aligners, custom-designed through advanced 3D imaging. Each aligner is worn for about one to two weeks and is slightly different from the last, gradually guiding your child’s teeth into proper alignment.
Here’s what the process looks like:
- Digital scan of your child’s teeth — no goopy impressions
- Customized treatment plan created by our orthodontists
- Series of clear aligners delivered to guide the smile
- Aligners worn 20–22 hours a day, removed for eating and brushing
- Progress monitored with regular check-ins
Because the aligners are removable and comfortable, kids can continue their normal routines — brushing, eating, and even playing sports — without the restrictions of braces.
Cost of Invisalign Clear Aligners in Alliston, ON
We know cost is a major factor when considering orthodontic care for your child. Invisalign for kids is often comparable in cost to traditional braces, especially with our flexible payment options and family-friendly financing.
The total cost of Invisalign First depends on:
- The complexity of your child’s case
- Length of treatment and number of aligners needed
- Whether early intervention or full treatment is required
- Insurance coverage or dental benefits
At Alliston Orthodontics & Oral Surgery, we make the financial part simple. During your child’s free consultation, we’ll provide a personalized cost estimate and explain all available options — including 0% interest financing.
Why Choose Invisalign For Your Child?
Invisalign clear aligners offer a number of benefits that make them a great option for kids — and an even better one for parents.
- No food restrictions — Kids can remove aligners to eat the foods they love
- Easier oral hygiene — Brushing and flossing stays simple and effective
- Fewer emergencies — No broken wires or loose brackets
- Comfortable fit — Smooth plastic means less irritation
- Discreet appearance — Great for kids who feel self-conscious about braces
- Custom-designed for growth — Invisalign First is made specifically for developing mouths
It’s a treatment option that fits your child’s life — not the other way around.
When Should Your Child See an Orthodontist?
The Canadian and American Associations of Orthodontists both recommend that children see an orthodontist by age 7. This early visit allows us to catch potential issues before they become more complex — and gives you peace of mind, even if no treatment is needed right away.
We may recommend Invisalign First if your child shows signs of:
- Early or late loss of baby teeth
- Crowding or spacing issues
- Difficulty chewing or speaking
- Jaw growth problems or asymmetry
- Thumb sucking or other oral habits
The earlier we catch these concerns, the more effectively we can treat them.
