    Benefits of Invisalign

    • Invisalign aligners are nearly invisible, making them a discreet option for orthodontic treatment, particularly for adults and teens who may be self-conscious about wearing braces.
    • Invisalign aligners are custom-made for each patient, ensuring a comfortable fit with no metal wires or brackets to cause irritation or discomfort.
    • Invisalign aligners are removable, allowing for easy cleaning of both the aligners and teeth, as well as the freedom to eat without dietary restrictions.
    • Invisalign treatment typically requires fewer in-office appointments compared to traditional braces, making it a convenient option for those with busy schedules.
    • With Invisalign, there are no restrictions on what you can eat, as aligners are removed during meals, allowing you to enjoy your favorite foods.
    • Invisalign can lead to a straighter and more confident smile, potentially enhancing self-esteem and overall quality of life.

    Invisalign for Teens, offered by our board-certified orthodontists at Light Dental Studios, represents a tailored approach to orthodontic treatment designed specifically for adolescents. We understand that the teenage years can be challenging enough without the added concerns of traditional metal braces, and that's where Invisalign comes in as an excellent alternative.

    Invisalign for Teens offers all the advantages of the standard Invisalign system while addressing the unique needs and lifestyles of teenagers.

    One of the most notable benefits is the near invisibility of the clear aligners. These aligners are virtually undetectable, making them a discreet choice for teens who may be self-conscious about their appearance during orthodontic treatment. Adolescents can maintain their confidence and self-esteem while enjoying the benefits of straightening their teeth.

    Comfort is another significant advantage of Invisalign for Teens. The aligners are custom-fitted to the individual's teeth and are smooth and comfortable to wear.

    Unlike traditional metal braces, there are no wires or brackets that can cause discomfort, irritation, or even injuries during sports or other physical activities. Teens can continue to enjoy their active lifestyles without the worry of braces-related injuries.

    The removability of Invisalign aligners is particularly appealing to teenagers. Aligners can be taken out for eating, allowing teens to enjoy their favorite foods without dietary restrictions. They are also easily removed for brushing and flossing, enabling adolescents to maintain optimal oral hygiene and reducing the risk of dental issues during treatment.

    Our board-certified orthodontists at Light Dental Studios are highly experienced in providing Invisalign for Teens. They work closely with each patient to create a customized treatment plan that aligns with the unique goals and needs of adolescents. The process involves wearing a series of aligners, typically changed every two weeks, allowing for gradual and comfortable tooth movement. Teens can see the progress as their smile transforms, contributing to a positive treatment experience.

    My wife cracked her tooth and got a crown from Dr. Udod and Hailey. We were beyond happy with the care we received here. Hailey went out of her way to make my wife felt comfortable and at ease. Dr. Udod was quick, gentle, and meticulous with his work. Both of them were friendly and professional. It was a great experience for us!

    Came in for chipped teeth from fall. Harleen was so kind and made every effort to make me comfortable. Dr Lee explained what the process was and what could happen down the road with the tooth. From beginning to end it was 45 minutes and I was back to work. I was so happy made appointment for teeth cleaning in 2 weeks. Great experience for someone who is not big fan of going to dentist 😊😊

    I have been going here for 10 years. Why? Because of their excellent customer service and phenomenal technical expertise. Starting with the front office. They hire people like Shailee, who takes the time to answer my questions with a smile. You can tell they hire people who like working here and that is seen with the excellent customer service. Shailee took the time to explain a refund I was getting and she didn't act like it was a bother. My dentist, Dr. Benoit and Hailey, her dental assistant, provided exceptionally great service explaining every step in the process of taking care of my cavity. Hailey was a great help with the doctor by being ahead of every next step and working well with the doctor. Dr. Benoit seemed like she was a perfectionist and very detailed in her work. Yet she was very pleasant to talk with even taking time to explain what she was doing. It is like that every time I come in for a visit. The people may change but you get the same excellent service each time you go in there. Great organization 👏 👍 👌 🙌 ❤️

    I have found my experiences with Light Dental to be very positive. Dr. Yin, who is giving me a tooth implant, and her assistant Jan have been great. They clearly explain everything that will be happening. The procedure itself thus far (implant base is in) has been painless. They are also good humored and nice to be around. Dr. Yin’s CV is amazing.

    The dentists are good at their jobs, but the real shining stars are their support staff. I have severe dental anxiety and have never gotten through dentist appointments without crying, often hysterically. Both Ashley's (hygienist and assistant) are so warm, friendly, supportive, and accommodating. Kate at the front desk is validating, advocates for patients, and makes me feel so heard and cared about! All three of them have gone above and beyond with me to make me feel safe, comfortable, and important. Often times I feel like a set of teeth at the dentist, but they make me feel like a whole human. They remember me when I walk through the doors or call. Going to the dentist is still an ordeal for me, but I am so grateful for them. I live in Olympia knowing full well Light Dental Studios has a (probably just as great) location so much closer to me, but they don't have the Ashley's or Kate!
