Lingual braces are a discreet alternative to traditional braces, with the brackets and wires placed on the inside of the teeth rather than the outside. This treatment option is ideal for patients seeking a more aesthetic solution to orthodontic treatment while still achieving effective results.

Lingual braces are custom-designed to fit each patient’s teeth and are fixed in place by bonding the brackets to the inner surface of the teeth. Wires are threaded through the brackets and adjusted during follow-up appointments to gradually move the teeth into proper alignment.

This option is particularly popular among adults who want to straighten their teeth without the visibility of traditional braces. Lingual braces are effective for treating a wide range of dental issues, including crowding, spacing, and bite problems.

While lingual braces are less visible, they may require a longer adjustment period and can be more challenging to clean. However, they provide an aesthetic, effective orthodontic solution.
