What are Lingual Braces?

Lingual braces are an orthodontic treatment method that involves attaching brackets and wires to the back surfaces of the teeth, making them virtually invisible from the front. Unlike traditional braces that are placed on the front of the teeth, lingual braces offer a highly discreet treatment option. They are a popular choice among adults and professionals who desire a straighter smile without the aesthetic impact of visible braces.

The Benefits of Lingual Braces

Lingual braces offer numerous advantages for patients seeking orthodontic treatment. Here are some of the benefits:

  • Discreet Appearance: Lingual braces are placed on the back of the teeth, making them virtually invisible from the front.
  • Customized for You: Each set of lingual braces is custom-crafted to fit your unique dental anatomy, ensuring optimal comfort and treatment precision.
  • Effective Results: Lingual braces provide the same level of effectiveness as traditional braces in correcting a wide range of orthodontic issues, including overcrowding, gaps, and bite problems.
  • Comfortable and Convenient: Our orthodontic team will ensure that your lingual braces are adjusted properly and provide personalized care throughout your treatment journey.
  • Improved Oral Hygiene: Lingual braces are easier to clean compared to traditional braces since there are no brackets or wires on the front surface of the teeth.

Candidacy for Lingual Braces

Lingual braces are suitable for individuals seeking a discreet orthodontic treatment option. It is important to schedule an initial consultation with our experienced orthodontists to determine if lingual braces are the right choice for you. During the consultation, we will evaluate your oral health, discuss your treatment goals, and create a customized treatment plan tailored to your needs.

The Lingual Braces Treatment Process

The process of getting lingual braces involves several steps:

  1. Consultation: During the initial consultation, we will examine your teeth, discuss your treatment goals, and explain the entire lingual braces process.
  2. Digital Impressions: We will take digital impressions of your teeth to create custom-made lingual braces brackets and wires that will be attached to the back surface of your teeth.
  3. Bonding: In the next appointment, the brackets and wires will be carefully bonded to the back surfaces of your teeth using a strong adhesive.
  4. Adjustments and Progress Checks: You will have regular visits to our clinic to have your lingual braces adjusted and to monitor the progress of your treatment.
  5. Braces Removal: Once your treatment is complete, the lingual braces will be removed, and you will be provided with retainers to maintain the corrected position of your teeth.
