Lingual Braces in West Hills

Lingual braces in West Hills are traditional braces with a twist: the brackets and wires are placed on the back (tongue side) of your teeth instead of the front. That means they straighten your smile while staying completely hidden from view.

Why choose lingual braces

• Invisible from the outside: ideal if you want fixed braces no one can see.
• Fixed and always working: nothing to remember to wear, unlike aligners.
• Effective: they can treat many of the same cases as regular braces.

What to expect

Lingual braces are custom-fit to the inside of your teeth. There is a short adjustment period as your tongue gets used to them, and they call for careful cleaning, which we will coach you through. Treatment time is similar to conventional braces.

Lingual braces vs other discreet options

If hiding your treatment matters most, your main choices are lingual braces and Invisalign. Invisalign is removable and often more comfortable, while lingual braces are fixed and hidden without any wear-time to manage. Prefer a subtle front-facing option? Consider ceramic braces.
