LINGUAL ORTHODONTICS:

Lingual Orthodontic braces uses tiny brackets attached to the inside of your teeth. This new, revolutionary procedure allows you to have braces, and the same results without the brackets being seen. Thin wires are then threaded through the brackets to exert a light yet constant pull that gently straightens the teeth over time. This method is being used more every day.

Why should I GET BRACES ?

It is difficult to maintain good, clean teeth when they are crammed or crooked. If you can not maintain a good level of dental hygiene, these teeth may become full of cavities or lead to diseases in the gums. So whether your teeth are crowded, too far apart or have shifted, in just a few months you'll have a new reason to smile.

Can ADULTS get braces? Are the braces very visible ?

Yes, in this day in age we are able to use braces on adults. We also offer Invisalign braces for those who may be embarrassed by having visible braces. Because Invisalign aligners are nearly invisible, some of our patients report that even close friends and family members have a hard time noticing the additions!
