Clear aligners offer real advantages for teens navigating school, sport, and social life
Why the teen years matter
Making the most of the growth phase
While your teen's jaw and teeth are still developing, a BASMA doctor can guide alignment more precisely, often leading to more predictable results.
Preventing bigger issues later
Starting treatment during these years can help avoid more complex orthodontic problems down the line.
Supporting confidence, not just teeth
The teen years are when self-image is still forming. Discreet aligners mean your teen doesn't have to feel self-conscious while getting there.
What you'll actually feel
You don't have to hide your smile in every photo, or think twice before laughing. Clear aligners are barely noticeable, so you can play sport, hang out, and go about your day without anyone really clocking that you're wearing them.
What age can my teen start?
Treatment can usually begin once your teen's baby teeth have fully come out and their permanent teeth are in place. This is usually between the ages of 12 and 17. This will be determined by BASMA doctors after the consultation.

Regular check-ins through the app between clinic visits mean any issues are caught early and the plan adjusted if needed. Every step is reviewed by your teen's BASMA doctor, so nothing moves forward without their sign-off. You'll be able to see this progress alongside your teen, not just hear about it after the fact.

What people are asking
How do we know if my teen is ready for clear aligners?
It depends on dental development, not just age, and that's best confirmed by a BASMA doctor. Book a free consultation to find out if your teen is ready to start.
Will a BASMA doctor actually be involved?
Every plan is designed and monitored by a BASMA doctor, from the first scan to the final tray. Monitoring happens through the app, with clinic visits only when needed. The exact clinic visits and required procedures for your teen's case will be laid out in the treatment plan after the consultation.
Will it affect school or sport?
No. Aligners are removable, so there's no restriction on eating, playing sport, or speaking in class. Most monitoring happens through the app, with clinic visits only when needed.
Will treatment take longer if my teen doesn't wear their aligners enough?
Aligners need to be worn for 20 to 22 hours a day, only coming out to eat or drink. Wearing them less can extend treatment beyond the average 6–10 months, so it's worth keeping to the routine as closely as possible. Our Smile Guarantee covers free refinements when your teen follows the plan as prescribed.
What comes in the treatment box?
Your teen's treatment box comes with everything they need to get started: chewies, a smile spreader tool, an aligner removal tool, and a carry case. Cleaning tablets are also available separately, and every instruction is right there in the BASMA app to guide them along the way.
Will my teen need retainers afterwards?
Yes. Retainers hold the new position in place once treatment ends. BASMA offers a retainer subscription with six-month shipments at 33% savings, so keeping the smile in place stays simple.
