During the teenage years, a bright smile is more than just an aesthetic feature—it builds confidence, supports social interaction, and helps teens express themselves freely at school and in daily life. Understanding this, Maya, a lively 13-year-old girl from Russia who is now living in Vietnam with her family, began her smile transformation journey at Viet Han Dental Clinic.
After researching different orthodontic options and receiving recommendations from friends, Maya and her family decided to choose Invisalign clear aligners for her orthodontic treatment.

Starting the Journey – Maya at 13 and Her Invisalign Decision
At the age of 13—when confidence, communication, and a natural smile play a crucial role—Maya began to notice that her teeth and bite were not properly aligned. Without hesitation, her mother brought her to Viet Han Dental Clinic for a thorough examination and consultation.
After a comprehensive assessment and detailed discussion with Dr. Hoang Thi Thao Ngan, the family carefully considered various orthodontic solutions. Ultimately, they placed their trust in Invisalign, the modern clear aligner system. This method not only delivers long-term orthodontic effectiveness but is also especially suitable for active and energetic teenagers like Maya.
Why Maya chose Invisalign:
- High aesthetics: The aligners are nearly invisible, allowing Maya to smile confidently at school, during activities, and in social interactions.
- Removable convenience: Invisalign can be easily taken out, making eating and oral hygiene simple and comfortable compared to traditional braces.
- Comfortable and gentle: Without brackets or wires, Maya experienced minimal discomfort, allowing her to maintain her cheerful, active lifestyle.
Dr. Hoang Thi Thao Ngan, who closely accompanied Maya throughout her treatment, shared: “With Invisalign, Maya can continue living an energetic and joyful teenage life without interruptions from orthodontic treatment. This is not just a journey of straightening teeth—it is the first step toward a healthy, radiant, and confident smile.”
Completing the Journey – A New Smile at Age 14
After one year of Invisalign treatment at Viet Han Dental Clinic, Maya, now 14, achieved remarkable improvements in both dental aesthetics and function.
- Well-aligned teeth: Crowding and misalignment were effectively corrected, resulting in a beautifully even smile.
- Improved bite alignment: A balanced relationship between the upper and lower jaws helps ensure stable and efficient chewing.
- Optimal oral hygiene: With straightened teeth and removable aligners, brushing and flossing became easier, reducing the risk of cavities and gum disease.
Beyond the clinical results, Invisalign allowed Maya to maintain her confidence in communication, learning, and daily activities. This emotional comfort is especially important during adolescence—a stage when self-image and psychological well-being play a vital role in personal development.
Maya’s mother shared her thoughts: “When we first noticed that Maya’s bite was not well aligned, we were quite worried. We wanted a solution that was effective without negatively affecting her teenage psychology. After one year with Invisalign at Viet Han Dental Clinic, we are truly satisfied. Maya’s teeth are straighter, her bite is stable, and most importantly, she remained comfortable and happy throughout the treatment. That is what matters most to us.”
Maya also expressed her feelings: “At first, I was afraid that braces would be painful and that my friends would notice them a lot. But Invisalign is really comfortable. I can play sports, have fun, and take photos with my friends just like before. After getting used to the aligners, I hardly feel them in my mouth. I’m so happy that my teeth are straight now and my smile looks so much better!”
