Angel Aligner KiD Explained
Angel Aligner KiD was built by Angel Aligner to focus specifically on early orthodontic intervention for young children aged 6 to 11 years of age.
Angel Aligner KiD includes a wide range of early orthodontic solutions that deal with prevention to treatment. The product range includes clear aligners, lingual guidance, occlusal ramp, inclined occlusal ramp and maxillary protection.
If you are looking to align teeth or correct bite problems for an older child, teenager or yourself, you might want to check out Angel Aligner instead.
Angel Aligner KiD performs bite and teeth alignment and correction with the help of removable transparent trays. These trays gently and gradually push the teeth of your child into the desired positions.
Angel Aligner KiD is often used after traditional palatal expanders or Invisalign Palatal Expander (IPE) treatment or as an alternative to braces. It is used to correct mixed dentition (a combination of baby and adult teeth) with mild to severe orthodontic misalignment in young children.
Many parents like yourself choose Angel Aligner KiD over traditional metal braces because it is child and parent-friendly. While most traditional braces can cause abrasions or be more difficult to clean, Angel Aligner KiD clear aligners are removable with a smooth surface.

Angel Aligner KiD: Frequently Asked Questions
Commonly asked questions about Angel Aligner KiD.
How do I know whether my child is suitable for Angel Aligner KiD?
Your child qualifies for Angel Aligner KiD if he or she meets the following conditions:
- Has mixed dentition (a combination of children and adult teeth);
- Is aged 6 to 11 years old;
- Has been flagged for orthodontic problems such as dental crowding or an open bite by a dentist or an orthodontist.
If you have been told by a dentist or orthodontist that your child might require early intervention to correct bite or alignment problems, but want a more affordable option to Invisalign First, then Angel Aligner KiD will be a good clear aligner choice for your child.
What is the best age for my child to start Angel Aligner KiD treatment?
The best age for your child to commence Angel Aligner KiD is as soon as they have reached the age of 6 years old.
The American Association of Orthodontics recommends that children should pay their first visit to an orthodontist by the age of 7.
If you have recently paid a visit to a dentist or orthodontist, and have been advised to seek orthodontic treatment for your child, you might want to consider starting them on orthodontic treatment as soon as possible.
Early orthodontic intervention can help prevent a few orthodontic and oral health problems such as dental overcrowding, misaligned bite, amongst other issues.
Which is faster for my child - braces or clear aligners?
When it comes to orthodontic treatment, speed is normally not the main consideration or factor of success.
The amount of time it takes to straighten teeth with braces or clear aligners is entirely dependent on the oral and orthodontic condition of your child, the complexity of the tooth movements, and the overall compliance your child has in visiting the dentist or orthodontist or wearing their clear aligners.
However, in some complex or difficult orthodontic cases, braces usually emerge as the faster treatment in terms of treatment speed.
How do I know whether my child needs early orthodontic intervention?
Your child probably needs early orthodontic intervention if they have the following habits or orthodontic characteristics:
- Dental crowding (overcrowded teeth)
- Crooked teeth
- Anterior and/or posterior crossbite
- Open bite
- Protrusion of upper jaw
- Gaps between teeth (diastema)
- Concave appearance with a prominent jaw
- Early or delayed loss of baby teeth
- Difficulty chewing or biting
- Clicking or shifting jaw or jaw misalignment
- Obvious speech difficulties
- Thumb sucking past the age of 5
- Mouth breathing or snoring
If you would like to have a dentist opinion before proceeding for an in-person consultation, you can ask for a smile consultation (online).
What is the difference between Angel Aligner KiD and Invisalign First?
The main difference between Angel Aligner KiD and Invisalign First are their brand names and cost of treatment.
Both are dentist-directed clear aligners designed specifically for growing children. Both systems also have a long history in helping patients smile better with clear aligners.
Angel Aligner KiD typically offers a more cost-effective treatment option while maintaining high-quality materials and precision. The treatment planning process for Angel Aligner KiD focuses on accommodating mixed dentition stages with specific consideration for erupting teeth and jaw development patterns.
Invisalign First, being a longer-established brand, often comes at a premium price point and is known for its SmartTrack material. They use their proprietary SmartForce attachments and features like eruption compensation tabs for emerging teeth.
The appointment scheduling differs between the systems. Angel Aligner KiD generally requires check-ups every 8-10 weeks, while Invisalign First typically needs monitoring every 6-8 weeks. Both systems can treat similar orthodontic conditions, but Angel Aligner KiD emphasises affordability and accessibility for families while maintaining comparable clinical outcomes.
The material composition varies slightly, though both use medical-grade plastics. Angel Aligner KiD uses a specialised polymer optimised for growing children, whereas Invisalign First uses their SmartTrack material.
What is the difference between Angel Aligner KiD and braces?
Angel Aligner KiD and traditional braces offer different approaches to orthodontic treatment for children.
Angel Aligner KiD uses a series of clear, removable plastic aligners that are virtually invisible, while traditional braces consist of fixed metal brackets and wires attached to the teeth.
The main advantage of Angel Aligner KiD is its removability, allowing for better oral hygiene and no food restrictions. Your child can brush and floss normally by simply removing the aligners. The smooth plastic design also offers greater comfort compared to metal braces, which can cause irritation and ulceration to cheeks and lips.
Traditional braces are permanently fixed during treatment, requiring special cleaning techniques and dietary restrictions to prevent damage. However, they can be more effective for complex orthodontic issues since they work continuously and do not rely on patient compliance.
Angel Aligner KiD typically requires fewer office visits, with check-ups every 8-10 weeks, while traditional braces need monthly adjustments. Treatment time can be comparable for both options, though this depends on the specific case.
How long will my child need to wear Angel Aligner KiD daily?
Your child will need to wear their Angel Aligner KiD clear aligners at least 22 hours daily.
Maintaining a disciplined schedule can help increase the success of treatment outcomes and ensure that their treatment plan is on track.
When will my child start seeing results from my Angel Aligner KiD treatment?
Every child is unique. In some cases, you and your child may begin seeing results from the treatment within a span of 2 weeks. However, in more complex cases, you may only start seeing results after a few months.
Every single child has different orthodontic needs and requirements. While the timelines for treatment results may vary, you can be sure that with consistent wear, the Angel Aligner KiD clear aligner is able to deliver the results for your child that you are looking for.
How often do I need to bring my child to see the dentist when they use Angel Aligner KiD?
Depending on whether your child has just started treatment and whether you have opted for remote monitoring, you will usually need to bring your child to see the dentist every 4 to 6 weeks for a review and follow-up.
For parents who have opted for remote monitoring with us, you will be conducting 4 to 6 weekly remote monitoring reviews with your dentist or orthodontist. Your child has to visit the dentist or orthodontist in-clinic every 2.5 to 3 months.
What happens after my child is done with Angel Aligner KiD?
Depending on the orthodontic condition of your child, there are several treatment routes after your child has completed Angel Aligner KiD.
For minor to moderate alignment and bite issues, your child will complete Angel Aligner KiD and proceed with Angel Aligner retainers. The clear retainers help to retain the final position of their teeth and must be worn regularly for the next 6 to 12 months as the newly aligned teeth settle.
For moderate to severe alignment and bite issues (with all adult teeth), your child might proceed with Angel Aligner Unlimited.
During this phase, your child will receive an unlimited number of aligners to treat permanent dentition. The treatment process and timeline is dependent on the severity of the orthodontic condition of your child.
