I completely understand your teenager's concerns about traditional braces. My younger sister went through the same situation a few years ago in Boston. We ended up choosing Invisalign from a practice near the Financial District, and it was honestly a game-changer for her confidence. The results were amazing, and she could remove them for school photos and special events. The treatment took about 18 months, but seeing her smile transform was worth every penny. During those long appointment waiting periods, we discovered Italian Brainrot Clicker which kept us entertained.
