At Renew Wellness Dentistry, we believe every child deserves a confident, radiant smile that grows with them. Our Invisalign for Kids treatment offers a modern, gentle, and effective way to correct dental alignment issues—without the discomfort and visibility of traditional metal braces. Designed specifically for growing smiles, this advanced orthodontic solution helps guide your child’s teeth into proper alignment while keeping treatment comfortable and stress-free.
Invisalign for Kids, also known as Invisalign First or Phase 1 treatment, is a specialized orthodontic option made for children between ages 6 and 10. This treatment uses a series of removable, transparent aligners that gradually shift your child’s teeth into their ideal positions. These clear aligners are completely wire-free and bracket-free, making them a more comfortable and flexible alternative to metal braces.
At Renew Wellness Dentistry, our goal is to make early orthodontic care as easy as possible. Each aligner is custom-made using digital 3D scans of your child’s mouth, ensuring a perfect fit and a smooth treatment experience. This early-phase treatment also helps prevent more complex dental problems later in life, such as severe crowding or jaw misalignment.
Parents and children alike love Invisalign for Kids for its combination of comfort, aesthetics, and effectiveness. Here are just a few of the reasons families choose clear aligners at Renew Wellness Dentistry:
1. Nearly Invisible Appearance:
Invisalign aligners are transparent and blend naturally with your child’s smile. Kids can smile confidently in photos, at school, and during social activities without feeling self-conscious.
2. Comfortable and Painless:
Made from smooth, BPA-free plastic, Invisalign aligners eliminate the irritation that often comes with brackets and wires. Your child can wear them comfortably all day long.
3. Easy to Clean and Maintain:
Because the aligners are removable, brushing and flossing are simple—helping your child maintain excellent oral hygiene throughout treatment.
4. Custom-Made for Growing Smiles:
Invisalign aligners are designed to fit developing teeth and jaws, allowing room for growth while gently guiding teeth into their correct positions.
5. Fewer Dental Visits:
Compared to traditional braces, Invisalign requires fewer adjustment appointments. You’ll just need to visit our office every 6-8 weeks so we can track your child’s progress.
Invisalign for Kids can successfully address a wide variety of early orthodontic concerns, including:
Crowded or overlapping teeth
Gaps or spaces between teeth
Crossbites, overbites, and underbites
Narrow dental arches
Jaw development issues
By addressing these issues early, we can help your child avoid more invasive or lengthy treatments in their teenage years. Early intervention often means easier corrections and better long-term dental health.
At Renew Wellness Dentistry, we make the Invisalign journey enjoyable and educational for children and their parents. Here’s what you can expect:
1. Complimentary Consultation:
We start with a friendly, no-pressure assessment of your child’s smile. Our dental team uses digital X-rays and 3D imaging to evaluate tooth development and determine if Invisalign for Kids is right for them.
2. Customized Treatment Plan:
Using advanced 3D technology, we create a personalized set of clear aligners that fit your child’s teeth precisely. No messy molds or uncomfortable impressions—just a seamless digital design.
3. Aligner Use and Progress:
Your child will wear each set of aligners for about one week, removing them only to eat, drink, brush, and floss. As treatment progresses, each new aligner moves the teeth closer to the desired alignment.
4. Regular Check-Ups:
Every few weeks, we’ll schedule a short visit to check your child’s progress and provide the next set of aligners.
5. Enjoying a Beautiful New Smile:
Once your child’s treatment is complete, we’ll provide a custom retainer to help maintain their beautifully straight smile.
Not every child requires early orthodontic care, but identifying potential issues early can make a huge difference. If your child has trouble chewing, premature loss of baby teeth, or visible crowding, they may benefit from Invisalign for Kids. Our team will carefully assess their dental development and recommend the best path forward.
At Renew Wellness Dentistry, we go beyond traditional dental care—we create a positive, welcoming environment where your child can feel comfortable and confident. Our experienced dental professionals use the latest technology to deliver safe, precise, and gentle care for every young patient.
We take pride in educating both parents and children about proper oral care habits and guiding them through each step of the Invisalign process with compassion and expertise.

“This is the first truly wellness-focused practice I’ve encountered. As I start my journey toward optimal health and well-being (which always begins in the mouth), I am immensely grateful for the thorough and knowledgeable approach of these providers. I highly recommend bringing your children here so they can grow to be their healthiest selves. Dr. Ivonne Castro will help you identify the root of the issue, rather than just addressing the symptoms.”
