Straighten Your Smile Without Metal
Invisalign for Teens aligners from Sturgill Orthodontics are made of clear plastic and almost invisible. Your friends probably won’t even know you’re wearing them!
Instead of hiding behind a mouth full of metal braces, you’ll enjoy the confidence of showing that smile every day.
Benefits of Invisalign for Teens
The teenage years are usually equal parts wonderful and challenging. Dr. Sturgill was a teen himself once and he can sympathize. With so much change going on in most of our patients’ lives at this age, throwing metal braces into the mix isn’t always ideal.
That’s why we offer Invisalign Teen at our Johnson City, Bristol, and Norton, VA orthodontic offices. It provides the straightening power of braces without the brackets and wires that can make people feel self-conscious.
The comfortable, convenient treatment lets patients continue to smile with confidence as their teeth shift into place.

Sturgill Orthodontics can use Invisalign for Teens to help correct these concerns:
- Crowded teeth
- Spaced teeth
- Deep bite
- Open bite

Keep Doing What You Love
Invisalign for Teens effectively straightens teeth the same way metal braces do. Invisalign for Teens is an ideal choice for teens in Johnson City, Bristol and Norton who play sports, play certain types of instruments, love crunchy foods, or are worried about how metal braces will look at homecoming or in the yearbook.
While you can play sports or a musical instrument with braces, you do have to be careful about not cutting your lip from a ball to the face or while trying to hit a note on your saxophone. With Invisalign Teen, there’s no hardware getting in the way so you can continue to play on without any worries.
With the clear, comfortable technology of Invisalign and our expert care, teens can keep being themselves and love their smiles even more!
Eat Freely
You probably have friends in Johnson City, Bristol or Norton with braces who aren’t allowed to chew gum or eat certain foods like whole apples and popcorn. With Invisalign for Teens, the aligners are completely removable, so you can eat all of your favorite foods whenever you want.
Popcorn, corn on the cob, whole apples, raw carrots and pizza crust are all still on the menu with Invisalign for Teens. Since these aligners are removable, you can take them out to eat meaning there are zero food restrictions.
You’ll also remove them to brush and floss your teeth so your oral hygiene won’t take a hit.
Doesn't Cost More than Traditional Braces
At Sturgill Orthodontics, we understand that every patient's needs are different. Many factors determine the cost of Invisalign treatment. In most cases, the cost of Invisalign is comparable to traditional braces and covered by most dental insurance plans.
Financing options are also available to make Invisalign more affordable for your family. Our Sturgill Orthodontics team is here to answer any questions regarding financing, payment plans, and insurance claims.
Easier to Keep Clean
Aligners with Sturgill Orthodontics are often more hygienic than braces because it is much easier to clean your teeth when there are no braces in the way.
This also helps your teeth stay clean and white throughout treatment with a reduced risk of demineralization.
Perfect for Busy Schedules
Invisalign for Teens treatment is ideal for busy parents in the areas around Johnson City, Bristol and Norton because there are never any emergency appointments from broken wires or brackets.
The typical Invisalign for Teens patient sees Dr. Sturgill, Dr. Williams, or Dr. Harper once every 6-8 weeks for a total average treatment time of 9 to 15 months.
