— Dr Jason Yee

Your Sydney orthodontists at Verve Orthodontics in the Sydney CBD and Mosman offer the lingual braces treatment to discreetly straighten teeth. Lingual braces, otherwise known as invisible braces, are completely hidden from view as they are bonded to the back of your teeth.

THE BENEFITS OF LINGUAL BRACES

LINGUAL BRACES ARE COMPLETELY HIDDEN FROM VIEW

While we offer many discreet orthodontic treatments, lingual braces are the only treatment which is completely hidden from view. The brackets and the wires operate on the tongue side of the teeth which makes them completely invisible. This can be extremely beneficial for our patients who wish to have no visible indication that you are receiving orthodontic treatment. For those who are self-conscious about their smile and even more daunted by the thought of wearing braces, lingual braces can be an ideal choice.

LINGUAL BRACES HARNESS POWERFUL TECHNOLOGY

Lingual braces use all of the technology of traditional braces, which has been improved over time, and apply this technology to the lingual (tongue) side of your teeth. This means that patients can receive dramatic results safely and relatively quickly, while still enjoying the benefits of a cosmetically driven orthodontic treatment. Lingual braces can address a range of concerns and achieve dramatic results using advanced orthodontic technology.

LINGUAL BRACES ARE TAILORED TO YOU

The entire lingual braces treatment, including the brackets and wires, are tailored to fit comfortably on the back of your teeth. As the different elements of this orthodontic treatment are tailored specifically to you, you should experience very little or no discomfort on the soft tissues inside your mouth.

THE TREATMENT PROCESS

The treatment process for lingual braces is very similar to receiving traditional braces; however the braces are bonded to the back of the teeth. Firstly you will be required to attend a thorough initial consultation to assess the positioning of your teeth and the alignment of your jaws. After we have identified that lingual braces are the best treatment to help you achieve a beautiful, straight smile we will discuss the treatment process and the duration of your treatment.

Once you are ready to commence treatment we will use a specialised bonding agent to attach the brackets to the tongue side of the teeth. We will ensure they are comfortable and are stable of the back of the teeth before we thread through the wire which will gradually encourage the teeth into the desired positioning.

At regular intervals of approximately 6 weeks we will tighten the wire in order to encourage further movement of the teeth. Once your teeth have reached the ideal position our orthodontic professionals will remove the brackets and the wire which can reveal a beautiful new smile.
