What are the benefits of Invisalign Teen over traditional appliances?

Braces or Invisalign for a Teenager?

Both work well for most teenage cases, and they cost about the same. Clear aligners are removable for sport, eating and cleaning, which suits teenagers who will wear them 20 to 22 hours a day.

Braces suit teenagers who would find that consistency difficult, since they work continuously without relying on anyone remembering. Dr Vivaldi will recommend what fits your teenager’s case and routine. See our braces vs Invisalign guide

What Affects the Price

Complexity is the main driver: crowding, spacing and bite correction all affect how far teeth need to move and how long that takes. Treatment length follows from complexity. And what is included matters when comparing quotes: ours covers retainers, monitoring and all appointments rather than billing them separately at the end.

Teen Braces Cost FAQs

How much do braces cost for a teenager in Sydney?

At Vivaldi Smile Artisans, teenage braces are $4,500 to $11,000 and Invisalign $4,000 to $11,000, both all-inclusive, covering appliances, appointments, monitoring and retainers. Your exact quote follows a consultation with Dr Vivaldi.

Is Invisalign more expensive than braces for teenagers?

No. The ranges are similar, and cost follows the complexity of the case rather than the system chosen.

When is the right age for treatment?

Most teenagers are treated once the adult teeth have come through, commonly between 11 and 15, though it varies with each teenager’s development. A consultation confirms the right timing.

How do we start?

Teenagers start with a consultation with Dr Vivaldi. He examines your teenager’s teeth and bite, takes the records needed, and explains the options, timing and exact cost. The consultation is $100, redeemable against treatment if your teenager starts the same day, and it may be claimable depending on your health fund and level of cover.

Do we need a referral?

No referral is needed. You can book directly, and we are happy to keep your family dentist informed.
