Lingual Braces
Lingual braces are a form of fixed brace that are placed behind the teeth so that they are invisible to those around you. It is however no less prolific in its ability to straighten and align your teeth. Lingual braces are ideal for patients at Nottingham Smiles who cringe at the thought of having to wear metal braces on the front of their teeth, as it provides a level or discreetness that is sure to make you smile.
The braces are bonded to the back of the teeth, and are cosmetically a great option if you are worried about the visibility of braces. As with traditional orthodontic metal braces, the lingual brace is able to cater to the needs of small and minor tooth corrections, as well as more severe cases including crowding, bad bite and tooth gaps.
Lingual braces mainly attract adults and teenagers wishing to transform their smile discreetly. Lingual braces are custom-made to suit your tooth structure, and will work effectively to move your teeth over time. Whatever your age, lingual braces are sure to offer great results, and it is no longer the case that braces are just for teenagers; adults are building up a greater proportion of the teeth straightening market than ever before.
