Hi. Im in 6th grade and i'm 12. i want to get invisalign. my teeth arent bad,just a little gap in my front ones.not really that crooked. thats why i want invisalign,so i dont have to get them tightened and stuff like braces. i dont care if my friends know i have them and i like how they will bleach my teeth after i'm done using them (or at least thats what they do where i will get them) do you think its worth taking out the invisalign every time i eat or should i get braces? i will be in school during lunch.if anyone has had invisalign here are my questions:
1. is it worth taking them out every time you eat/
2.should i get them since i will only need them for a few months?
3. do they look weird when they are on?
thanks!
ps. dont tell me they are more expensive then braces,becasue for me they arent!
happy holidays!

Your best thing to do would be do go for a consultation to find out if you are a candidate...sometimes one is not.
I think it's worth taking them out rather than resticting your diet by having braces (not being able to eat apples, etc).
The length of time will vary depending on what are your goals and how serious is your problem. I wore them for a year vs. 18 months with braces
No one ever knew I had them on and I am a professional working in healthcare in front of many people.

FYI, YOU'RE MUCH TOO YOUNG NOW FOR INVISALIGN.
