What are Lingual Braces?
-
Lingual braces are fixed orthodontic appliances placed behind the teeth, making them virtually invisible when you smile, speak, or laugh.
-
Ideal for adults and teens who want to straighten their teeth discreetly.
- Capable of treating even complex orthodontic cases that clear aligners might not be suitable for.
Who are Lingual Braces for?
Lingual braces are designed for people who want a beautiful, straight smile but don’t want visible braces during treatment. They’re a great option if you:
-
Value discretion – perfect if you’re in the public eye or just prefer a subtle treatment.
-
Have mild to complex orthodontic needs – they can treat everything from small gaps to significant crowding.
-
Want predictable results – fixed braces are highly effective and don’t rely on patient compliance like aligners.
-
Prefer a “hidden” alternative to traditional braces or aligners.
-
Are motivated to keep up with oral hygiene - since they sit behind your teeth, extra care is needed when cleaning.
Who They’re Ideal For
-
Adults who want a confident smile without visible metal braces.
-
Teens and young adults who are self-conscious about their appearance.
-
Professionals who frequently speak or meet with clients and want a discreet option.
-
A great option if clear aligners, like Invisalign, aren’t right for you.

Hidden Brace FAQs
1. What are lingual braces, and how are they different from traditional braces?
Lingual braces are fitted behind your teeth, making them completely invisible when you smile, talk, or laugh.
Unlike traditional braces, which are placed on the front of your teeth, lingual braces are a discreet option for adults and teens who want to straighten their teeth without anyone noticing.
2. Are lingual braces suitable for everyone?
Most patients are good candidates for WIN braces, especially those who:
- Want a completely invisible treatment option.
- Have concerns about wearing visible braces at work or in social settings.
- Require treatment for complex orthodontic issues, such as crowding or bite problems.
The best way to find out is to book a consultation, where we’ll assess your teeth and recommend the most suitable treatment for your needs.
3. Do lingual braces affect speech?
Yes, it’s common to notice a slight change in speech when you first start wearing lingual braces because they sit on the inside surfaces of your teeth, close to your tongue.
Most patients experience:
- Minor lisping or difficulty pronouncing certain sounds during the first few days.
- A quick adjustment period, usually within 1–2 weeks, as your tongue adapts.
