Lingual Braces

Lingual Braces In Uxbridge

Lingual braces are a discreet orthodontic treatment that is fitted to the inside surface of your teeth, making them virtually invisible when you smile. They work in the same way as traditional fixed braces, applying gentle, controlled pressure to gradually move your teeth into the correct position. Lingual braces are an excellent option for adults and teenagers who want effective teeth straightening without visible brackets.

Your treatment begins with a detailed consultation, where we assess your teeth, bite and smile goals to create a personalised treatment plan. Lingual braces can correct crowded, crooked, spaced and misaligned teeth, as well as certain bite issues. With regular adjustment appointments and good oral hygiene, you can achieve a beautifully straight smile while keeping your orthodontic treatment hidden from view.
