Lingual Braces

Lingual braces work similarly to traditional braces by applying consistent pressure on the teeth to gradually move them into their desired positions. The brackets and wires are customized for each patient's unique dental needs.

Lingual braces can effectively address a wide range of orthodontic issues but may not be suitable for extremely complex cases. An orthodontist can determine if lingual braces are appropriate for your specific needs.

Lingual braces may take a short adjustment period, and some individuals may experience minor tongue irritation or speech adjustments. However, most patients adapt to them relatively quickly.

The duration of treatment varies depending on the complexity of the orthodontic issues. Treatment times are often similar to traditional braces, typically ranging from one to three years.
