How do lingual braces work?

Traditional braces are often very noticeable and can be embarrassing, especially if you're a teenager. And if you're self-conscious about your smile, or don't want to deal with the hassle of traditional braces, then lingual braces may be the perfect solution for you.

Lingual braces work by gently moving your teeth into alignment using a system of brackets and a very thin archwire. The brackets are made from a clear ceramic material or metal, and they are attached to the back surface of your teeth using orthodontic glue.

Once in place, the arch wire is threaded through the metal brackets fitted with tiny elastic tighteners. These arch wires apply gentle pressure on your upper and lower teeth, gradually moving them into alignment over time. In many cases, orthodontic treatment with lingual braces can be completed in as little as 6-12 months.

If you are considering braces but don't want to deal with the hassle of traditional metal brackets, lingual braces may be right for you.

Hidden behind from view, they offer a discrete way to achieve a straighter, new smile. And because they work by gently moving the teeth into place, treatment can often be completed in just a few short months.

So if you're looking for an innovative way to improve your smile, ask one of our orthodontists about lingual braces today.

Benefits of lingual braces

Lingual braces offer a number of benefits over traditional metal braces, including:

1. Discretion

One of the biggest benefits of lingual braces is that they are hidden from view. Because they are placed on the back of the teeth, nobody will know that you're wearing them - making them an ideal choice for adults who want to straighten their teeth without drawing attention to their orthodontic treatment.

2. Improved comfort

Lingual braces are designed to fit snugly against the back of the teeth, making them more comfortable to wear than traditional metal braces.

3. Faster treatment time

In many cases, orthodontic treatment with lingual braces can be completed in as little as 6-12 months - making them a great option for busy adults who don't have the time to wait for traditional braces to work.

If you're looking for a completely hidden orthodontic treatment that offers discretion, comfort, and fast results, lingual braces may be right for you. Ask one of our specialist orthodontists about this innovative treatment option today.

Lingual Braces Treatment Process

The process of getting lingual braces is very similar to the process of getting conventional metal braces.

1. Consultation

First, you'll need to schedule a consultation with one of our specialist orthodontists. During this consultation, we will assess your teeth and jaw to determine if lingual braces are the right orthodontic treatment option for you. 

Once we've determined that lingual braces are the best orthodontic treatment option for you, we will take impressions of your teeth. These impressions will be used to create your custom-made lingual braces. 

2. Treatment

Once your braces have been created, we will attach them to the back of your teeth using a strong bonding agent. Once in place, the wires are threaded through the metal brackets and tightened. These wires need regular adjustments to gradually move your teeth into their desired position. 

3. Retainers

The entire process usually takes about 6-12 months, after which you'll need to wear a retainer to keep your teeth in their new positions.

So if you're interested in getting lingual braces in Melbourne, book a consultation with us today. We'll be happy to assess your needs and create a completely invisible orthodontic solution that's right for you.

FAQ

Are lingual braces better?
Lingual braces are a great option for patients who want to discreetly straighten their teeth. They are placed on the backside of the teeth, so they are not visible when you smile or talk.

Lingual braces can be just as effective as traditional braces to realign teeth, but they may require more time and effort to keep clean. If you are considering internal lingual braces, be sure to discuss all of your options with your orthodontist.
Do lingual braces hurt?
If you choose lingual braces to achieve healthy, straight teeth, they should not cause any more discomfort than conventional braces. You may experience some soreness and tenderness when the braces are first placed, but this should go away within a few days.

If you experience any persistent pain or discomfort, be sure to contact your orthodontist.
What do lingual braces fix?

Lingual braces can be used to treat a wide variety of orthodontic problems, including crowding, gaps, very deep bite, and misaligned teeth.

How long do lingual braces take?
The length of orthodontic treatment with internal lingual braces varies depending on the severity of the orthodontic problem. In general, treatment with internal lingual braces is generally faster than treatment with conventional braces.
Are lingual braces faster than Invisalign?
Comparatively speaking, internal lingual braces are more effective than Invisalign in repositioning roots. When it comes to sealing gaps left behind after teeth have been extracted, internal lingual braces produce superior orthodontic results. However, it's tough to determine which of these two methods of treating orthodontic issues is faster.
Are lingual braces better than aligners?
Internal lingual braces compare to aligners in terms of their ability to realign teeth and close spaces. They're also less visible when worn, making them a more aesthetically pleasing option for some patients.
Which one are better ceramic braces or lingual?
Ceramic braces (or clear braces) are less visible than traditional braces, but they are not as discreet as internal lingual braces. Ceramic braces are also more fragile than conventional braces and may require special care to avoid breakage.

Lingual braces are a great option for patients who want to straighten their teeth without anyone knowing. However, they can be more difficult to keep clean than other types of braces.
Which kind of braces is best?
There are several different braces to choose from, so how can you know which one is right for you? The answer is that it depends!

Everyone's teeth are unique, therefore what works for your buddy may not be the greatest option for you.

Consult with one of our specialist orthodontists in Melbourne to determine which orthodontic treatments are ideal for you. They'll be able to inspect your teeth and decide whether metal braces, ceramic braces, lingual braces, or Invisalign would be best suited to correct your particular alignment concerns.

So don't put it off any longer - make an appointment now and start your orthodontic journey to a straighter and healthy smile!
