Lingual Braces Are Your Virtually Invisible Option For Straight Teeth

Published by Dr. Charles Gemmi

A Board Certified Orthodontist and a Diplomate of the American Board of Orthodontics, Dr. Charles Gemmi has been a practicing orthodontist with Orthodontics Limited since 2000 and is a member of the teaching staff at Einstein Medical Center. Orthodontics Limited is a Diamond+ Provider of Invisalign in Philadelphia and Hatboro, PA.

Braces may be one of the best ways to create a smile you love to share. Knowing this, many people still shy away from this option because they don’t want to deal with the hassle and embarrassment traditional braces can cause. At Orthodontics Limited we understand these could be concerns for patients of all ages.

That’s why Dr. Middleberg and Dr. Gemmi are proud to give you multiple options for your orthodontic care, including lingual braces.

What are lingual braces?

This great new advancement in orthodontics gives you the opportunity to have braces that attach to the inside surface of your teeth, also known as the “lingual” area. After taking a simple mold of your teeth we can design a custom plan that fits brackets on the inside, making your orthodontic care invisible to the rest of the world. For more information, a short video that explains lingual braces can be found on our website.

Are you a good candidate?

If you have previously avoided braces because you don’t want the look of that bulky metal for months, lingual braces may be your solution. Lingual braces are also good for those who can’t use our Invisalign due to plastic sensitivity. Another advantage to lingual braces is for those who play high contact sports, which make traditional bulky braces unsuitable.

What’s next?

It’s important to remember that lingual braces are not offered at all orthodontic offices. This type of system involves extra training and certification, and Drs. Gemmi and Middleberg are both confident in offering their patients this service. To find out more about lingual braces, and how they can be an option for your new smile, contact us today.
