What are lingual braces?
Lingual braces are a fantastic alternative to traditional braces that sit on the inside of your teeth. While they are often less known than standard braces, lingual braces have the advantage of being virtually invisible. Reach out to our team to learn more about lingual braces treatment at one of our Adelaide-based practices.
Why choose lingual braces?
Completely hidden
As lingual brackets are fixed to the inside of your teeth, they are virtually invisible to anyone but you.
Highly effective
Designed to treat moderate to severe orthodontic problems, lingual braces are a highly effective option for most patients.
Faster results
Unlike Invisalign, lingual braces are fixed in place, giving you faster results without having to remember to wear them.
How does it work?
Lingual braces work in a very similar way to traditional orthodontic braces. Essentially, they consist of small attachments and wires that are fixed to the inside (rather than the front) of your teeth. These attachments gently pull your teeth into the new prescribed position over the course of your treatment.
Who are inside braces suitable for?
Lingual braces are suitable for early orthodontic treatment in children from as young as 7 years through to adults with a wide range of orthodontic problems. Our orthodontists are highly experienced with lingual braces treatment and will advise of your suitability during your initial consult.
