Children are finicky enough as it is. With traditional metal braces, a child will have to make an adjustment to his or her cleaning routine. For instance, braces can trap bits of food in the wires and brackets, which needs to be removed to prevent tooth decay. Many children just won't like having to do this regularly. With Invisalign, your child can simply remove the aligner before brushing and flossing. This means he or she won't have to make any habitual adjustments whatsoever. Also, the aligner is very easy to maintain. There are other convenience benefits too.
