What are Lingual Braces?
Lingual braces are a type of orthodontic treatment that is growing in popularity. Unlike traditional braces, which are placed on the front of the teeth, lingual braces are placed on the back of the teeth, making them almost invisible. Lingual braces are an excellent option for adults who want to improve their smile without anyone knowing they are wearing braces.
Lingual braces work just like traditional braces, gradually moving your teeth into place over time. The brackets and wires used in lingual braces are custom-made to fit each patient’s individual mouth. The customization helps to ensure that the treatment is effective and that the results are long-lasting.
At O·M·I Orthodontics, we use the Brius Independent Movers system! Only Brius has a proprietary biomechanical method that enables simultaneous and independent movement of teeth. The precise movement and force on each patient’s tooth are calculated and preprogrammed using a proprietary algorithm by their Brava software.
If you are considering Brius lingual braces, you want help from an experienced orthodontist such as Dr. Joel Johnson. At O·M·I Orthodontics, we offer complimentary consultations so that you can look into this treatment option and decide if it is right for you. Our team can help you get started on your journey to a straighter smile!
Who is a Candidate for Lingual Braces?
Brius lingual braces are a good option for patients of all ages who want to improve their smile without anyone knowing they are wearing braces. Lingual braces are also a good option for patients concerned about the appearance of traditional metal braces. They are also an option for patients with crowding or spacing issues who need to undergo orthodontic treatment. However, there are some cases where there may be better options than lingual braces. For instance, patients with very large teeth may not be candidates for this type of braces. In addition, lingual braces can be more challenging to keep clean than traditional metal braces, so they may not be ideal for patients with a history of poor oral hygiene. If you are interested in lingual braces, please schedule a consultation with our office so that we can evaluate whether or not they are right for you.
Procedure for Getting Brius Lingual Braces
If you are considering lingual braces, the first step is to schedule a consultation with our office. During your consultation, our experienced orthodontist will examine your mouth and assess your needs. If Lingual braces are right for you, we will take impressions of your teeth and send them to the lab where your custom braces will be made. Once your braces are ready, you will come back to our office to have them placed. The placement process takes about an hour, and we will give you aftercare instructions to help you care for your new braces.
Cost of Lingual Braces
The cost of lingual braces varies depending on the individual patient’s needs. In general, Lingual braces can cost more than traditional metal braces. However, patients who choose this option often find the discreet treatment worth the cost. We will determine the exact cost during your consultation. Insurance may not cover Lingual braces, but our office offers financing options to make treatment more affordable.
