Delray Beach, FL – April 23, 2025 – That’s the question Delray Orthodontics is asking teens and adults in Delray Beach, as they champion Invisalign® clear aligners as the top orthodontic treatment choice for all ages.
With a growing number of patients seeking comfort, convenience, and discretion in their orthodontic care, Invisalign continues to rise in popularity—and for good reason. According to a 2023 report by the American Association of Orthodontists (AAO), more than 15 million people worldwide have chosen Invisalign, including over 4 million teens. These numbers reflect a strong shift toward modern, personalized orthodontic solutions—and Delray Orthodontics is proudly leading that shift in South Florida.
Why Invisalign?
Unlike traditional braces, Invisalign uses a series of custom-made, removable, and virtually invisible plastic aligners to gently shift teeth into place. Each aligner is worn for 20 to 22 hours a day and changed every 1 to 2 weeks. The result? A straighter smile without the appearance of braces.
“Invisalign is a game-changer,” says Dr.Janet Stoess-Allen, lead orthodontist at Delray Orthodontics. “Our patients love that they can remove their aligners to eat, brush, and floss like normal—and they feel more confident during treatment, especially during big moments like school pictures, work meetings, or weddings.”
A Popular Choice for Teens
According to Invisalign’s 2024 parent survey, 92% of parents said their teen was more confident wearing Invisalign aligners compared to traditional braces. Teen patients also reported less bullying and teasing, a common concern among adolescents undergoing orthodontic treatment.
Delray Orthodontics offers Invisalign Teen, which includes compliance indicators (tiny blue dots that fade when worn properly), making it easier for parents and orthodontists to ensure treatment stays on track.
“Teens today are busier than ever,” Dr.Janet Stoess-Allen explains. “With Invisalign, they don’t need to come in for as many emergency visits for broken wires or brackets. It fits their active lifestyles better.”
Adults Are Embracing Invisalign Too
It’s not just teens driving Invisalign’s popularity—1 in 4 orthodontic patients today is an adult, according to the AAO. Whether it's for career reasons, special occasions, or simply self-care, adults in Delray Beach are turning to Invisalign to discreetly improve their smiles without drawing unwanted attention.
In fact, a 2022 study published in the Journal of Clinical Orthodontics found that adult Invisalign users reported a 77% increase in self-esteem during treatment, compared to 55% for traditional braces users.
“We see a lot of professionals, busy parents, and retirees who finally have the time and resources to invest in their smile,” says Dr.Janet Stoess-Allen. “Invisalign gives them the flexibility they need—no food restrictions, no orthodontic emergencies, and minimal impact on speech.”
Cutting-Edge Technology, Local Care
Delray Orthodontics uses 3D iTero scanning technology to create precise digital impressions of patients’ teeth—eliminating the need for messy putty molds. Patients can even see a simulation of their future smile before treatment begins, providing motivation and excitement from day one.
With personalized treatment plans, regular progress checks, and remote monitoring options, Delray Orthodontics combines high-tech care with small-town friendliness and accessibility.
“Our goal is to make Invisalign affordable and accessible to as many people as possible,” Dr.Janet Stoess-Allen says. “We offer flexible payment plans, accept most insurances, and work hard to make each patient’s experience smooth and successful.”
Community Impact
Delray Orthodontics is more than just a dental office—they’re an active part of the Delray Beach community. Through local school sponsorships, smile scholarship programs, and free smile consultations, they’re helping build a healthier, more confident Delray—one smile at a time.
“As we see more interest in cosmetic and functional orthodontics, it’s important that patients know they have options,” Dr.Janet Stoess-Allen adds. “Invisalign is not just about looking good—it’s about achieving lasting oral health through aligned teeth and a balanced bite.”
