Okay, so I'm thirteen years old and I know that invisalign is supposed to be for adult teeth but some of my friends have them so I was just wondering if I would be able to get invisalign becuse I'm not an adult. I've already lost all of my baby teeth but they're not fully done growing in, although they're close. My twelve year molars are coming in if that makes a difference. Also, do braces work better than invisalign? I really want invisaline but does it not work as well as regular braces?
(please focus on answering the first question and not the one about invisalign vs. braces)
Thank You!

I agree with the first part of the answer above, but disagree with the second part.
We have done over 200 cases of Invisalign - it costs LESS than traditional braces and on average, takes less time to complete.

Generally you want the adult grown in enough for the trays to be able to "grab" the teeth. You should be fully erupted in a year.
The invisalign cost nearly twice as much as regular braces and take longer to move the teeth.

SORRY, YOU'RE NOT OLD ENOUGH FOR INVISALIGN. JUST ASK AN INVISALIGN CERTIFIED DENTIST.
