Completely Invisible Orthodontic Care: Braces on the Inside of Your Teeth
Unlike traditional braces, which are placed on the front of the teeth, lingual braces are attached to the back, making them virtually undetectable. This innovative approach allows you to transform your smile without anyone knowing you're undergoing orthodontic treatment.
When are lingual braces used?
Lingual braces are used in various orthodontic situations where patients seek aesthetic solutions to straighten teeth.
- Cosmetic concerns: Patients who want to straighten their teeth without the visibility of traditional metal braces
- Professional or social reasons: Ideal for adults and teenagers who are concerned about how braces may affect their appearance during work, school, or social activities.
- Complex cases: Lingual braces can be just as effective as traditional braces in treating complex orthodontic issues such as crowding, spacing, or bite misalignments.
How do lingual braces work?
Lingual braces work similarly to traditional braces, but their hidden placement requires specialized techniques and materials.
- Custom-made brackets: Each bracket is custom-made to fit the back surface of your teeth, ensuring comfort and effectiveness.
- Wires and adjustments: Like traditional braces, lingual braces use archwires and regular adjustments to gradually move your teeth into the desired position.
- Hidden placement: Because they are attached to the inner surfaces of the teeth, lingual braces are completely invisible from the outside, providing you with the confidence to smile throughout treatment.
