Lingual Orthodontics in Zaragoza<\/h1>\n

Lingual orthodontics<\/strong> is an alternative to traditional braces for people who need to straighten their teeth but are uncomfortable with traditional orthodontic treatments.<\/p>\n

Lingual braces<\/strong>, along with Invisalign, are among the so-called invisible orthodontic treatments available on the market today.<\/p>\n

The main difference between lingual orthodontics and traditional braces is that the brackets are placed on the back of the teeth, making them invisible to others.<\/p>\n

Some of the brands associated with this technique include Incognito\u00ae and iBraces\u00ae (by 3M), In-Ovation\u00ae L (by Dentsply), and Harmony\u00ae (by American Orthodontics).<\/p>\n

Many patients experience constant irritation caused by their tongue coming into contact with lingual braces. Some of them also find it difficult to get used to the pain and discomfort associated with lingual orthodontics. To make matters worse, treatment time is longer than with conventional (labial) orthodontics.<\/p>\n

That is why this treatment is not available at our clinic.<\/p>\n

For patients concerned about the aesthetics of orthodontics, we offer treatment with Invisalign clear aligners<\/a>. This treatment does not have the aforementioned drawbacks and is more affordable.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n

What is lingual orthodontics?<\/h2>\n

Let\u2019s start from the beginning. Lingual orthodontics is a method that allows you to straighten your teeth by placing all the components (brackets, wires, and elastics) on the back of your teeth.<\/p>\n

Although the placement of the braces is different, both traditional and lingual braces have many similarities, since the type of material used and the principles behind both treatments are the same.<\/p>\n

Advantages of Lingual Orthodontics<\/h2>\n

The fact that the braces are invisible is probably the main advantage of lingual braces.<\/p>\n

Only if someone stops to look inside your mouth will they notice your braces. This is especially true if you\u2019re wearing them on your lower teeth. Otherwise, they\u2019re hardly noticeable.<\/p>\n

Therefore, if you feel that labial braces aren\u2019t an option for you in terms of aesthetics, lingual orthodontics may be an alternative for you.<\/p>\n

How Orthodontic Braces Are Made and Fitted<\/h2>\n

The fabrication and placement of modern lingual braces differ significantly from those of traditional braces.<\/p>\n
