How do lingual braces work?
Like a traditional fixed brace in method, lingual braces are fixed to the backs of your teeth as opposed to the front, but they work in exactly the same way. Only you and your dentist will know you’re wearing the brace meaning they are a perfect solution if this is important for you. Here’s how they work:
- With a combination of metal brackets and wires, we precisely position the brace on the back of every tooth
- Your lingual braces will be permanently fixed to the backs of your teeth throughout treatment
- With routine appointments, we make small adjustments to straighten your teeth
- Full aftercare will be provided including retainers to ensure your results last
