Teen Orthodontic Treatment
Orthodontic treatment is very effective during the teenage years, and Vivaldi Smile Artisans provide treatment to teens to support their growth and development into healthy smiles. We offer efficient, convenient, and discrete treatments that will not interfere with your teen’s busy lifestyle.
Early diagnosis and treatment are vital for achieving optimal results for teens. We can treat most adolescent orthodontic problems without major difficulties, if the condition is discovered early enough when your teenager’s jaws are still in development.
Discreet treatment for teens with 24+ years of experience and Diamond Invisalign Provider status. Interest-free plans from $70/week, all-inclusive. No referral needed.
Invisalign Teen for clear results
Dr Gustavo Vivaldi is one of the Diamond Invisalign providers in Sydney and uses 3D digital planning to design discreet treatment that addresses your teenager’s orthodontic needs.
Clear aligners are a discreet option that many teenagers find comfortable to wear. Clear Aligners are made from clear and smooth medical grade thermoplastic, (BPA-free) and fit over the teeth to produce gentle and controlled forces to achieve the desired tooth movement. During your teen’s treatment we will use a series of aligner sets; and each set is worn for 7-14 days, depending on the tooth movement designed to your teen’s specific orthodontic correction needs.

What are the benefits of Invisalign Teen over traditional appliances
Removeable – The treatment is so easy to get used to. Children and pre-teens can take out their Invisalign to play their favourite instruments, play sports; and continue enjoying all types of foods, unlike traditional braces.
Discreet and comfortable treatment – The clear aligners are practically imperceptible to peers and won’t show in any pictures.
Suitable for all ages – Invisalign® First treatment works on any number of misalignments for patients as young as six years old.
Suitable for all cases – Invisalign® treatment is extremely effective to treat virtually all orthodontic problems.
Efficient results – Dr Vivaldi plans each treatment individually, and treatment time depends on how far the teeth need to move.
Our efficient and discrete braces for teens
We offer metal, ceramic and LightForce 3D-printed braces, and Dr Vivaldi uses 3D digital planning for every treatment. You can choose from traditional metal braces or tooth-coloured ceramic braces, for our patients that would prefer a more discrete option.

Can Orthodontics influence jaw growth?
Dr Vivaldi uses growth modification appliances (e.g. Invisalign Mandibular Advancement Feature, twin block, plates) to encourage the growth of the jaws to improve their relationship. When the jaws are aligned both bite and facial appearance will also improve. Because the treatment takes advantage of your teen’s own growth, timing matters.
Dr Vivaldi will discuss this with you and give advice on the best time to treat your teenager’s malocclusion.
Additional orthodontic techniques
Sometimes your teen’s smile needs extra attention and care. Dr Vivaldi will discuss this at your consultation and be sure to curate the best option for your teen’s orthodontic needs.
We can also combine your Invisalign or braces treatment with cosmetic treatment to achieve the optimum cosmetic result. For some patients, we use functional appliances in conjunction with your teen’s braces or aligner treatment to help guide jaw growth.
In other cases, we can use temporary anchorage devices (TADs), which are small implants that allow for extra anchorage to speed up the treatment.

What are the benefits of Early Orthodontic treatment?
Although one of the benefits of Orthodontic treatment is improving facial aesthetics, it will also help correct all malocclusions caused by jaw misalignment, crooked teeth and so forth. These orthodontic problems can affect not only your teen’s smile, but also how your teen chews and cleans their teeth, which can lead to long lasting effects later in life. Crowded teeth are linked to long term problems, as they are harder to properly clean and floss, and can contribute to cavities and gum disease. Protruding teeth are prone to accidental breakages and other problems like open-bites, cross bites can lead to uneven growth, tooth wear and functional problems.Remote Dental Monitoring
Every treatment includes DentalMonitoring, regular phone scans reviewed by our team, so you are not driving in for every routine check, and any issue is picked up early between visits.
