Lingual braces

Lingual braces

Lingual braces are one treatment alternative available to those patients who are in need of orthodontic treatment but, primarily for cosmetic reasons, are reluctant to have it.
In a nutshell, a lingual braces looks like a set of traditional dental braces that have been mounted on the inside (lingual side) of the patient's teeth. This positioning makes them essentially non-visible to others and means that the patient can undergo complete orthodontic treatment without suffering the cosmetic detraction and stigma typically associated with having braces.

What are lingual dental braces ? The term "lingual braces" refers to a method of orthodontic treatment where the brackets and wires that produce the patient's tooth realignment are attached to the backside (palate or tongue side) of their teeth, as opposed to the front or cheek side as is the case with traditional dental braces.
