What is Invisalign First & Teen, and how does aligner therapy with clear aligners work?
When they hear the term “invisible aligners,” many parents initially think of a night guard to prevent teeth grinding. However, Invisalign First and Invisalign Teen are something entirely different: they are clear, custom-made aligners that gently move the teeth of children and teenagers into the correct position, step by step.
The basic principle is simple: The aligners are worn day and night—at least 22 hours a day. Your child should only remove them when eating, drinking (except water), and brushing their teeth. Otherwise, they stay in the mouth—at school, during sports, while playing music, or even at night while sleeping. This ensures they work continuously and reliably.
What's especially convenient is that no one notices your child is wearing an invisible aligner. For many teenagers, this is a major advantage over traditional braces with brackets and wires.
Invisalign Teen also offers special features designed for teenagers' daily lives:
-
small blue wear indicators that show parents whether the brace is being worn regularly,
-
Replacement aligners, in case one is ever lost,
-
Adjustments for permanent teeth that are still erupting.
Invisalign First is specifically designed for children in the early mixed dentition stage. The aligners can create space for incoming teeth and gently correct misalignments as early as elementary school age.
At Skyline Orthodontics in Frankfurt am Main, we provide Invisalign treatment using a fully digital approach. Using a 3D intraoral scanner, we capture the position of the teeth without taking impressions, plan the outcome using a precise before-and-after simulation, and produce aligner models in our own 3D printing lab.
The result: a dental aligner that fits perfectly, blends seamlessly into the daily lives of children and teens, and enables discreet, safe orthodontic treatment—right in the heart of Frankfurt, just next to Skyline Plaza.

Who is Invisalign Teen & First suitable for?
Invisalign clear aligners are a great solution not only for adults but also for children and teenagers. With Invisalign First, even children in the early stages of mixed dentition can be treated. The aligners create space for new teeth, correct misalignments early on, and can thus often shorten or prevent the need for more extensive treatment later on.
Invisalign Teen was developed specifically for teenagers. It is suitable for treating crowded teeth, gaps between teeth, rotated front teeth, or mild bite problems. A major advantage: The aligners are clear and hardly noticeable at school or among friends. Teenagers can wear them discreetly during class, while playing sports, or when hanging out with friends—without having to feel self-conscious about wearing braces.
Parents in Frankfurt am Main who are looking for discreet, comfortable, and scientifically sound orthodontic treatment for their child will find the ideal partner at Skyline Orthodontics in the Europaviertel, right next to Skyline Plaza. Here, the needs of children and teenagers are taken seriously—with state-of-the-art technology, extensive experience, and a welcoming atmosphere that makes young patients look forward to their appointments.
What are the benefits and potential limitations of Invisalign Teen and Invisalign First?
The biggest advantage of Invisalign Teen and First is that they’re invisible. Children and teenagers wear braces that are practically unnoticeable in everyday life—whether at school, during sports, or when hanging out with friends. This is a huge advantage, especially during the sensitive teenage years, because it boosts self-confidence.
Another advantage is flexibility: The aligners can be easily removed for eating, drinking (except water), and brushing your teeth. This means there are no dietary restrictions, and oral hygiene remains straightforward. Digital planning using 3D scans shows parents and children what their teeth will look like after treatment even before it begins.
Of course, there are also things you should know: Invisalign requires discipline. Reliable results can only be achieved if the aligners are worn for about 22 hours a day. To help track teenagers’ compliance, the aligners feature small wear indicators that show how long they’ve been worn. At first, you may feel a slight pressure or notice a temporary change in your speech. However, this subsides quickly. For very severe misalignments of the teeth or jaw, traditional braces may still be the better choice.

The Invisalign Teen & First Treatment Process at Skyline Orthodontics
The process of treatment with Invisalign Teen or First is transparent and easy to understand for both children and parents. It all starts with a detailed consultation at our practice in Frankfurt’s Europaviertel, right next to Skyline Plaza. Using a state-of-the-art 3D scanner, we map the position of the teeth without the need for uncomfortable impression material. We then digitally plan the entire treatment and, even before it begins, show parents and children a simulation of what the smile will look like at the end.
Once the aligners are ready, your child will start with the first set. The aligners are replaced every one to two weeks. With Invisalign Teen, small wear indicators help parents see whether the aligners are being worn regularly. If an aligner is ever lost, replacement aligners are even available.
The treatment is accompanied by regular follow-up appointments at Skyline Orthodontics in Frankfurt so that we can monitor progress and adjust everything to suit your child’s needs. Once the desired result is achieved, we secure it with a retainer or a nighttime aligner—ensuring that your child’s new smile remains stable for the long term.
